Conjunctions

A conjunction is a word that connects clauses, sentences, or words in the same clause.

1. Coordinating Conjunctions 2. Subordinating Conjunctions 3. Correlative Conjunctions

Coordinating conjunctions connect words, phrases, or independent clauses that are similar or equal.

FANBOYS (For, And, Nor, But, Or, Yet, So)

Examples include: although, because, since, unless.

Correlative conjunctions are pairs of conjunctions that work together to connect equal elements.

Either...or, neither...nor, both...and.

Conjunctions help to create complex sentences by linking ideas and providing clarity.

Look for words that connect clauses or phrases, such as 'and', 'but', 'or'.

Coordinating conjunctions connect equal parts, while subordinating conjunctions connect a dependent clause to an independent clause.
