Answer 2

[AI-generated answer — Explain Bot]

To use a colon correctly, remember that it is used to introduce a list, explanation, or clarification. In the first sentence, the colon is used to introduce the idea that the only thing on Brianna's mind is winning the game. In the second sentence, the colon is used to introduce a list of specific vegetables that the speaker likes.
