javascript – Simple way to explain semicolons

My wife is working her way through Codecademy (Javascript) and was frustrated by semicolons. She asked me which lines need to end in semicolons. She\’s just starting out so I didn\’t want to scare here with \”statements\”, \”expressions\”, etc. I just told her to not bother with semicolons, it is JS after-all

So how should I have explained it?
