[General] He is a faithful politician that's why he got nominated on that party.

Can we use "....in that party", or, "....for that party"?

The sentence in the thread's title is incorrect. The correct preposition, as RobertJ notes, is "by".

It's also a run-on sentence. Can you see where it should be split into two?

"....Politician" and "that's why...".

What punctuation would you use?

What punctuation would you use?

I don't think there should be any punctuation mark. If I had to put one, I would put a comma between, "politician" and "that's why".

Remember that I called it a run-on sentence which should be split into two.

i can shorten the sentences but can't know where a punctuation can be placed. If you know better, it will be good to see the sentences with a punctuation or punctuation marks.

We're not just going to give you the answer. You don't need to shorten the sentences. You can keep all the words but you need to split them into two separate sentences. A comma doesn't separate sentences. I'm sure you know what the most common punctuation mark between sentences is.

I would use a semicolon, then.

 

[Rover_KE]

You could use a semicolon, certainly, but that's not the most commonly-used punctuation mark between sentences.

This is harder work than I imagined. Look at post #5. It contains five sentences. What punctuation mark appears between each sentence?

(Edit - To be fair, I have just discovered that the punctuation mark in question is not used in Urdu. However, the OP is learning English and has, I'm sure, seen plenty of examples of the punctuation to which we refer.)

That's not right.

Would you like to dig a bit deeper into that?

Post #5 contains five sentences? I see one, only.

 

[emsr2d2]

Post #5 contains five sentences? I see one (no comma here) only. (It's more natural to use "I see only one.")

Sorry, I meant post #9.

 

[Rollercoaster1]

Sorry, I meant post #9.

Post #9 contains only 4 sentences. Is there anything wrong in those sentences in terms of punctuation marks?

I wrote post #9. As Piscean has shown you, it contains five sentences. Why do you think I would write a post that contains punctuation errors?

 

[Rollercoaster1]

Post #9:

Oh, I am sorry! I considered the post #8 I quoted in post #9.

Ok, what do you want to draw my attention to?

 

[emsr2d2]

You seem to be having trouble working out which punctuation mark you should use between sentences. You keep using commas and semi-colons when they're not really appropriate. I'm trying to draw your attention to the punctuation mark that appears between each sentence in post #9.

Note that we write "OK" or "Okay" at the start of a sentence, but not "Ok". If it's not the first word of a sentence, it's "OK" or "okay".

I have already explained in the post #23. I thought I had made some punctuation mark mistakes in my sentences.
