If we want to get into the technicalities of writing, then here's the basics:

I would say to think of punctuation, like periods (.) or commas (,) as the breaths you take while speaking. You speak a sentence, and then it ends in a period. That's the part where you end a line of thought. As you speak, though, these sentences tend to have sections. These would be separated by commas. Commas would separate parts of a sentence that would support the rest of the sentence. Consider the following:

"While Linda was running, she spotted a small, gray frog."

Now, I guess technically you can separate all the details into their own sentences:

"Linda was running one day. She spotted a frog. The frog was gray."

But notice how that's not as concise; it doesn't flow very well. Putting the phrases together in the sentence in their own little sections allows for a better flow without as many words.

Also notice what I did with the sentence prior to this one with the semicolon (;). The semicolon is essentially another way which you can add a supporting/clarifying statement that would put an idea into further perspective, kind of how a person would normally talk.

Now, there's way more technical shit that you ought to review when it comes to writing, and I'd recommend you read a lot, be it books, news articles, fanfics, or whichever way demonstrates the craft of writing in a proper fashion. Furthermore, look into resources online in order to help you understand this stuff a little more.

If you want to expand your vocabulary, doing a lot of reading will absolutely help with that, especially with classic books, like from John Steinbeck, who use the English language to its fullest extent.

Hope this helps some1
