Quick recap.

  • Semicolon: an independent clause on BOTH sides (or it separates comma-heavy list items).
  • Colon: a COMPLETE sentence before it; an explanation or list after.
  • Single dash ≈ colon; paired dashes ≈ paired commas — open with a dash, close with a dash.

No clock here — this is for learning. Answer each one; a wrong pick gives a nudge and lets you try again. The explanation appears once you’ve got it. Finish the set to log today’s practice.
