Question

Where should a semicolon be placed to punctuate the following sentence correctly?

Gandhi believed that "actions express priorities" therefore, he used nonviolence to inspire movements for civil rights and freedom across the world.
A) after that
B) after believed
C) after therefore
D) after priorities

Answer 1

It’s d after priority’s

Answer 2

D) after priorities

Step-by-step explanation:

Two sentences can be combined to create one by separating them with a semicolon and a transitional phrase. In that matter, the first sentence Gandhi believed that "actions express priorities" can be merged with the sentence he used nonviolence to inspire movements for civil rights and freedom across the world by placing a semicolon and the transitional word therefore, which is followed by a comma:

Gandhi believed that "actions express priorities;" therefore, he used nonviolence to inspire movements for civil rights and freedom across the world.
