Comma splice
In written English usage, a comma splice or comma fault is the use of a comma to join two independent clauses. It is sometimes used in literary writing to convey a particular mood of informality. For example: It is nearly half past five, we cannot reach town before dark. The comma splice is usually considered an error in English writing style, however some authorities on English usage consider comma splices appropriate in limited situations, such as informal writing or with short similar phrases.
