Add a semicolon ";" after the unix command, will it affect the command?

I'm new to unix

No effect
This symbol was originally designed to execute multiple commands

An OS written in C is like when you write C C ++; the semicolon is used as a sign of the end of the statement!
void fun ();


int main ()
{
  fun ();
  return 0;
}


void fun ()
{

  ;;; // Semicolon generates empty function body;
}

I don’t know if I can describe it clearly. For example, the shutdown -h now; and no semicolon, is there any difference? Thank you

Add; is to execute the command continuously.
Such as ls;make;cd -;make

The semicolon is mainly used to separate multiple commands in sequence at the same time.
Adding a semicolon when executing a command can be understood as executing an empty command after executing this command
The result is the same
