comma splice
Two independent clauses are joined with only a comma. Fix by using a period or semicolon, or adding a coordinating conjunction. For example:
- "This is one of the most exciting races I've ever seen. I think I even missed my appointment."
- "This is one of the most exciting races I've ever seen; I think I even missed my appointment."
- "This is one of the most exciting races I've ever seen, and I think I even missed my appointment."
