In a book I’m reading for review is the following:

He was it; autistic.

I think this is an improper use of a semicolon. My understanding's is that both sentences separated by a semicolon need to be full, grammatically correct sentences in their own right. The single word , “autistic”, doesn’t qualify as a proper sentence with a subject and a predicate. Am I correct here? I don’t want to say this is an error if I’m wrong.

Thank you to anyone who can help!

There are several ways to punctuate this, but a semi-colon is not one of them.

I didn’t think so. Thank you

I believe that isn't the right punctuation. I don't think a semi-colon is needed in that sentence.

This is improper use dear that type of sign.to be differentiated there should be used coma.
