when does a sentence become a run on
Sentence clause structure A run-on or fused sentence consists of two or more independent clauses (i.e., clauses with subject and predicate) that are joined without any appropriate punctuation. An example of such a grammatically incorrect sentence could be, "It is nearly half past five we cannot reach town before dark." Some common remedies would be to separate the two independent clauses (between "five" and "we") with either a period [...five. We...], a comma and conjunction (...five, and we...), or a semicolon (...five; we...). Joining the two independent clauses with only a comma is actually another common grammatical error, the comma splice. James Joyce's novel Ulysses employs streams of consciousness, which takes literary license by intentionally breaking this grammatical rule by use of long, punctuation-free, run-on sentences, particularly in the final chapter "Penelope".
Band on the Run The album cover photograph was taken at Osterley Park, west London, on 28 October 1973 by photographer Clive Arrowsmith.[24] It depicts Paul, Linda and Denny plus six other well-known people dressed as convicts caught in the spotlight of a prison searchlight.[33] They are Michael Parkinson, Kenny Lynch, James Coburn, Clement Freud, Christopher Lee, and John Conteh.[33] Arrowsmith detailed that the eventual cover was one of the four he found acceptable in the 24 attempts he took. The spotlight's low potency meant everyone had to stand still for two seconds for proper exposure, which was made difficult by the photographed reportedly being in a "substance haze" following a party held by Paul, making it harder for them to hold the pose. The golden hue of the picture is due to Arrowsmith using a regular daytime film instead of a Tungsten film, which would be better suited for night-time photographs.[34]
