Run-on Sentences

Run-on Sentences

Run-on sentences are sentences that are run together. There are two types:

  1. Sentences run together without punctuation.
  2. Sentences run together with a comma.

Textbooks often give us several ways to fix run-ons. The easiest way, however, is to make two sentences.  Good writing usually has short sentences. They are easier to read and understand.
