2. Use a semicolon before such words and terms as namely, however, therefore, that is, i.e., for example, e.g., for instance, etc., when they introduce a complete sentence. It is also preferable to use a comma after these words and terms.
3. Avoid a semicolon when a dependent clause comes before an independent clause.
4. Use a semicolon to separate units of a series when one or more of the units contain commas.
