Comma Splice Run-on sentence.
Fused sentence- apex, your welcome say thank you
A sentence splice (alternately, comma splice) is when 2 independent clauses are joined by a comma. This is not grammatically correct. To fix a sentence splice, you can either change the comma to a semicolon, or you can add a coordinating conjunction after the comma (for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so).

Actually, it's none of the above. It's a perfectly normal compound sentence if you add correct punctuation: Jay went sightseeing on his own, and (he) caught up with the group later. Yes, you need a comma to separate the two clauses, but I don't see a comma splice or a fragment. The pronoun "he" is understood in the second part of the sentence. Usually, comma splices involve linking two independent sentences together with a comma, which is wrong-- you need to use a period. Here's a fragment: waiting for the train. Here's a comma splice: Jay was waiting for the train, it came early and he missed it. (You have two complete sentences there, and you can't splice them together with a comma.) And here's a run-on sentence: Jay was waiting for the bus but it came early and he missed it and he was late for school and he got in a lot of trouble because he had been late before and his teacher was really upset with him.
He won, he had the best score. This is an incorrect or comma splice sentence -- two distinct ideas joined incorrectly by a comma. Either rewrite as two sentences, or change the comma to a semicolon.
If a sentence consists of two independent clauses with a comma between them, it is a comma splice. That is, the part before the comma can stand on its own as a sentence, and the part after the comma can also stand on its own as a sentence, then it is a comma splice. If there is no punctuation there instead of a comma, it is known as a run-on sentence.
"I woke up early, I went for a run."
A compound sentence becomes a comma splice when two independent clauses are incorrectly joined together with just a comma, without a coordinating conjunction or proper punctuation. This creates a run-on sentence where the two ideas are not properly connected.
A comma splice consists of independent clauses separated by only a comma; a run-on sentence consists of independent clauses one directly following another, not separated by a conjunction or punctuation. Comma splice example: The flowers were pretty, I didn't pick them. Run-on sentence example: The flowers were pretty I didn't pick them.

A comma splice is when a two complete sentences are separated by a comma, without a conjunction. This makes it gramatically incorrect. A run-on sentence continues on and on with no clear predicate.
A comma splice occurs when two independent clauses are incorrectly joined by a comma without a coordinating conjunction. To identify a comma splice, look for sentences where two standalone thoughts are separated only by a comma. This error disrupts the flow of the sentence and is best corrected by either adding a coordinating conjunction or using a stronger punctuation mark like a semicolon or period.
