Comma Splice

Have you ever had a paper marked as having comma splices? Well i have so I looked up a way to fix.

Comma splices occur when only a comma seperates seperate clauses when each clause could stand alone as its own sentence. To correct them you can insert a semicolon or a period, or connect the clauses with words like and or because, or just restructure the sentence.
