Like...I can see why if someone had this in a word processor, the word processor might put a red underline and tell you to add a semicolon. "Think Globally" is technically a complete sentence. But in this context it's an object, enumerating core values. For a list preceded by a colon, if one or more of those items has a comma, most style guides will recommend the use of semicolons in order to make things clear. The weirdest thing about this for me is that I don't really mind this being a compromise between western and Chinese interests, though the punishment's still kinda harsh. Just, you know, don't lie to me and tell me it wasn't. --- Nonsense. "Testing" is for when you're still guessing--and now, I have no need to guess. -- Agatha, Girl Genius ... Copied to Clipboard! |
