Question

Choose the sentence that uses the semicolon correctly?

Answer 1

I believe that the second answer is correct.

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

The air is very stale in the library; moreover, the lighting is poor. (second option)

Step-by-step explanation:

A semicolon is most commonly used to link (in a single sentence) two independent clauses that are closely related in thought.

Only the second option has a semicolon linking two correctly written independent clauses.

When the conjunctive adverb moreover introduces a new independent clause in a sentence, use a semicolon before and a comma after this conjunctive adverb.
