TOPIC: Run On Sentences NAME: Alexis Taylor Date: 10/29/10 Period: 6 QUESTIONS: What is an example of a long sentence that is not a run on sentence? What is a good way to make a run on sentence a regular sentence? What if you don’t put two sentences together? NOTES: SUMMARY: if you have two independent clauses in one sentence it is called a run on sentence. To correct it, you would have to add a comma and a conjunction. Also, the length has nothing to do with a sentence being a run on sentence.
 * 
 * Can be two independent sentences in one.
 * The length of a sentence doesn’t have anything to do with if it’s a run on sentence or not
 * When you are trying to link to independent clauses you have to use a comma and a conjunction
 * If you put two sentences together you have a run-on sentence
 * Murray takes the train to school Mom rides the bus. Is a run on sentence, you would have to add a comma and a conjunction to make it grammatically correct.
 * Example: this is a run on sentence, __Carmen loved traveling in Italy she felt Rome was too hot__. This is a run on because there a two sentences in one.
 * Example: here is the correct way to write the same sentence, __Carmen loved traveling in Italy, but she felt Rome was too hot.__

**Do they have the same meaning because they have the same pronunciation?** No, Even though these words may sound the same they all have different meaning. What I mean by that is that you need to understand the difference between these words and how they're used differently **If they dont have the same meaning then how do you use each of them?** Ex. They're going to the movies. My house is over There Their cars are parked in the garage.

 * TOPIC:Parallel Structure || NAME:Alexis Taylor
 * QUESTIONS:

I it only Nouns that have to be in the -ing form, or do verbs have to also?

Would you have to do the same thing with verbs? What would happen if you didn't put the different types fo verbs together? || NOTES:Two or more words, phrases, and clauses that are similar in how long they are and in grammatical form. Parallel structure is the term writers use to describe similar ideas expressed in similar ways. Words have to be the same, like a noun has to be with other nouns, and an //–ing// form has to be with other //–ing// forms. When they are not in the same group, it’s called Faulty Parallelism. EX: "I like running, fishing, and to ski" is a poor way to write this, the right way is: "I like running, fishing, and skiing." is a better way to write the sentence. ||
