It can be considered one because it connects independent clauses. But there is some question whether (as an adverb) it still requires a semi-colon rather than a comma.
It can be, when it is used to mean "freely" (e.g. the bottom half was dangling free, the fish swam free). Otherwise, free is an adjective meaning independent, unattached, or at no cost.
The word he is a pronoun; an adverb modifies a verb or an adverb.
No, it is not an adverb. The word dollar is a noun. There is no adverb form.
Yes. An adverb can modify a verb, an adjective or another adverb.
No, "slowly" is an adverb that modifies verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs. It is not a conjunctive adverb, which are adverbs that connect independent clauses.
Used to express relationships between independent clauses.
The adverb of independent is independently.An example sentence is: "humanity was doomed as soon as the artificial intelligence learnt to think independently".
An adjective is used to bring together two independent clauses that are closely related in thought, in a single sentence. A conjunctive adverb is an adverb that does the same thing.
Normally the phrase would be "independent from", and list the object. The phrase "independent of" has limited use compared to the adverb form "independently of".Example : "The city's funds were independent fromthose of the county."Example : "The voltage from a carbon battery is independent of it's size."
Semicolon
The word further is not a conjunction. It may be a verb, adjective, or adverb. As an adverb, it may function as what is called a conjunctive adverb, to connect independent clauses (along with a semicolon) in the same way as the adverb furthermore.Example:The British were astounded by the development; further, they feared appearing inferior to the German scientists.
"Dad goes and takes along his banjo" is the independent clause.
The adverb of independent is independently.An example sentence is: "humanity was doomed as soon as the Artificial Intelligence learnt to think independently".
A compound sentence contains two or more independent clauses, and no dependent (or subordinate) clause(s). The independent clauses that make up a compound sentence may be connected with a coordinating conjunction, conjunctive adverb, or semicolon.
A semicolon can be used to join two independent clauses, indicating a close relationship between them. A conjunctive adverb (e.g., however, therefore, moreover) can then be used after the semicolon to show the logical connection between the ideas in the clauses. This structure helps to create a smooth transition between the two clauses.
A sentence with an adverb or adjective clause is a complex sentence, because an adjective clause is a subordinate clause. A complex sentence must contain one independent clause plus one or more subordinate clauses.
