[General] semicolon

[langue]

When do you usually use semicolon ?
Because I think they can usually be replaced by full stop, or comma.

I was not sure semicolon suits this case below, for example.

dimensions: width,xxxx height,xxxx (including the handle; excluding the prings)

Thank you

Three things.

Always space after (but not before) any punctuation mark.

You can replace a semicolon with a period, not a comma.

Thank me after I help you, not before.
