    English is probably their second language

    Also, let me correct you

      Thank you for your understanding. Yes. English is my second language. Ps. I corrected the title to not burn some eyes.

      Not agreeing with the comment you’re referencing, but couldn’t a comma work there? English is my first language, and thought you could use a comma or period there.

      Maybe I just like commas.

        I’m far from an expert and I was only being pedantic because they were rude

        That being said, I think it should have a period since it’s two separate, complete thoughts. A semicolon might work, but I never figured out how to use those

          That’s fair. Their comment was rude and unwarranted. I’m no expert although I do write as a job (science though, doesn’t really matter as long as you can understand what I write). But I do try to slip semicolons in wherever I can.

          Edit: I think of them as spicy commas.
