Top 5 Tips for Avoiding Run-On Sentences

1. Break Long Sentences: Divide lengthy sentences into shorter, clearer ones. Aim for one main idea per sentence.

2. Use Proper Punctuation: Ensure each independent clause is separated by appropriate punctuation (comma, semicolon, or period).

3. Utilize Conjunctions: Connect related independent clauses with conjunctions like "and," "but," "or," or "yet" to create compound sentences.

4. Employ Transitional Phrases: Introduce dependent clauses with transitional phrases like "however," "therefore," or "in addition" to enhance coherence.
