Is half of your large intestine a semicolon?

grammar not grammer. You put the comma anywhere your little heart desires. Grammar is power. Don't be a semi colon when you can be a full colon.

A semicolon is kindof a middle path between a comma and a period, and is used when you need a hard break and dont want to end the sentence.

50% is always half!\n\nI don't agree with "when the whole isn't 100%" theory, because isn't that the definition of whole?! Whole is 100%. Whole is ALWAYS 100%! Half of the whole is 50%! No exceptions!

Half of "one and a half" is three-quarters.  Twice "three-quarters" is "one and a half."\n\n... seems to me.

can you repeat the first part the middle part and the last part?

no because your intestine is part of your gastrointestinal system which is not connected to your brain.

While historically the use of the semicolon and colon were similar, modern usage seems to be diverging, with semicolons indicating breaks slightly stronger than commas and colons introducing lists and explanations. \nSemicolons have always been used in a manner very similar to commas, but with greater "weight."  That is, the semicolon introduces greater breaks in the sentence, dividing clauses which are longer and more independent, while commas are reserved for short pauses and for separating lists of short items.\nContinuing up the continuum, colons are "weightier" than semicolons, but less so than periods.  They introduce a break which is longer or more important than that introduced by semicolons, but not as final as periods.  Colons separate clauses which can stand as independent sentences grammatically, while semicolons can also be used for non-sentential clauses.\nHowever, in modern writing the colon is rarely used in this role as glorified semicolon.  The colon has developed a specific semantics as a break separating an introduction from an explanation.  For example, the colon is used after the salutation in formal letters.  It is used to introduce quotes, separating the source from the quoted text.  A colon is used to introduce a list, included bulleted lists.  A colon is used to separate the parts in a multipart title, such as "Reading Lolita in Tehran: A Memoir in Books" or "Good to Great: Why Some Companies Make the Leap...And Others Don't".

It takes an average of 18-24 hours for a meal to be fully digested and move into the large intestine as the waste that cannot be digested, which becomes feces.  The more one eats, the more one has to get rid of in the bowel movement.  It also depends what you eat.  Foods high in fiber, like fruits, vegetables, and whole wheats, have a lot of components that are not digested and move right through the digestive system.  The large intestine is about 6 feet in length, so it has the capacity to store a lot of stuff.  However, feces cannot be stored for very long times.  When fecal matter has moved into the sigmoid colon an rectum, the pressure increases and receptors in the rectum fire to the brain to tell other rectal muscles to contract and have a bowel movement.   Bowel movements with a week or more between indicates a slow digestive tract and possible backup of compacted fecal matter that is almost stuck to large intestine.  Laxatives or possible mechanical methods can be used to fix this.

In anatomy of the digestive system, the colon or large intestine is the part of the intestine from the cecum to the rectum. Its primary purpose is to extract water from feces. In mammals, it consists of the ascending colon on the right side, the transverse colon, the descending colon on the left side, the sigmoid colon, and the rectum.

its amazing the questions people come up with, its even more amazing that people answer them. I have a regular bowel movement approx. 10 times a week. Yearly bowel movements bring a whole new meaning to the phrase "full of SH*T"

colons :\nThese are used preceding a list.\n\nsemi colons ;\nThese are used in place of the words: for, nor, because.\n\nAlso, semi colons are commonly used after a greeting in a business letter such as\n            Dear Sir or Madam;

Well, its a simple question being wrongly answered.\n\nColon, or large inestine in common term, is only one in every normal human bieng.\n\nHowever, since colon is very long, we refer to it in parts including:\n1.  Ascending colon\n2.  Descending colon\n3.  Transverse colon\n4.  sigmoid colon.\n\n So u see, its not that we have 4 colons. it is just part of the same 1 lenghty colon. \n\n  Similarly it doesnt mean that our single colon is split into 4 parts because these parts are continuous with each other. its liek this. Suppose u have 4 meter rope. u can call 1st meter of the 4 meter rope as "A", 2nd meter as "B", 3rd meter as C and 4rth meter as "D". but it doesnt mean it is split up or that it is 4 in number. Got it? Thats the same way for colon.

On the bottom - usually the left side.  It is the 9 digits between the semicolons.\n\nLooks like this: |:123456789|:
