MODERATORS
They're also useful for separating multiple lists when using a comma would make it look like an item is an extended list.
So let's say I want to express:
"My contacts are:
Jessica, Cook (as in a job title, not a name)
James, MD (as in the professional certification, not the name 'MD')
Doug, ABC (maybe to show that Doug works at ABC)"
If I said:
"My contacts are Jessica, Cook, James, MD, Doug, ABC."
There's no clear indication of what is a list member and what is a new list. But this:
"My contacts are Jessica, Cook; James, MD; Doug, ABC."
is a bit clearer. (There are probably better examples but I'm shooting from the hip here lol)
