Semicolon

a punctuation mark consisting of a period above a comma (;). A semicolon is used between the clauses of a conjunctionless compound sentence if the clauses are lengthy and contain commas, and between the clauses of a complex sentence if they are fairly long or contain commas. A semicolon is also used between lengthy homogeneous parts of a simple sentence, particularly if one of them contains commas. Finally, a semicolon is used between collaterally subordinated clauses if they are long, contain commas, and are not joined by coordinating conjunctions.
