RE: Comma Splices: Forget the Hot Glue Gun. Get the Scissors!

in #tinyteaches7 years ago

I hate comma splices. Sentences deserve to have length. Dutchies are kings of long sentences.

Three independent clauses would make a fine, ridiculously long sentence from my Dutchie perspective ;)))

Sort:  

Well, I agree with you. Dutch lends itself to run-on sentences much more than English does. But sometimes you want the prose to be a little bit more staccato. Choppy. It depends on the atmosphere you're trying to create.

True, depends on the build up very much!!
