what is it called when two or more sentences are incorrectly written as one sentence

1 answer

When two or more sentences are incorrectly written as one sentence, it is called a run-on sentence. Run-on sentences can take various forms, including the failure to use appropriate punctuation or conjunctions to separate independent clauses. Another related term is a comma splice, which specifically refers to joining two independent clauses with just a comma, without a coordinating conjunction.
