Hi,
I understand that ';' is used for independent clauses.
but here the second independent clause starts with an 'instead'.
If I go by your suggestion and see it as a complete sentence, then I find the sentence to start with 'instead' (cause 'instead' comes after ';'). I would like to know,
1.can i start a sentence with instead.
2.if yes, then please tell me more words like instead , that can come right after ';' not making it dependent.
I would really appreciate your efforts with regards to this.
