Cevap
A semicolon, a colon, or an em dash must be used to link the two independent clauses.
The punctuation mark must connect two independent clauses where the second clause details or explains the first. A semicolon is correct because it links two closely related independent clauses. A colon is also correct because the clause preceding it is independent and the second clause illustrates the first. An em dash is also acceptable as it can join an independent clause with explanatory details.
