Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The sentence is a run-on because it contains two independent clauses (Josie loves the cold and she will go to Minnesota this winter) joined together without any punctuation or conjunction to separate them. One possible way to correct it would be to add a conjunction (e.g. Josie loves the cold, so she will go to Minnesota this winter) or a semicolon (e.g. Josie loves the cold; she will go to Minnesota this winter).

Select "Correct" If the Sentence Is Punctuated Correctly, "Run-On" If
