run-on sentence

您好!run —on sentence是指一,用错连接词； 二,两个独立句子之间未加标点或仅用逗
run —on sentence是指一，用错连接词； 两个独立句子之间未加标点或仅用逗号隔开。
commma splice是指用逗号连接两个不带关联词或连接词的句子。那这不是和run—on sentence的第二种情况一个意思么？难道说comma splice 中逗号连接的不是独立句子？

Answer 1

run-on sentence和comma splice是两种相近的语法错误,或者更准确地说,comma splice是属于run-on sentence中的一种典型错误.请看下面的解释：
A comma splice occurs when only a comma separates two independent
sentences.
A run-on sentence has at least two parts,either one of which can stand by itself (in other words,two independent clauses),but the two parts have been smooshed together instead of being properly connected.
也就是说comma splice特指将两个句子用逗号做错误的连接,而run-on sentence可以包括不加标点、错加标点、不加连接词或错加误连接词等情况.
而在这些情况中由于用逗号做错误连接是最普遍最典型的一种,因此学者又做了一个专门的词汇定义,即comma splice~
