The video tutorial focuses on increasing sentence complexity by using conjunctive adverbs, specifically THAMOS (therefore, however, also, meanwhile, otherwise). It explains how each adverb represents a specific relationship, such as cause and effect or contrast. The tutorial provides examples, including sentences about Disneyland tickets and the Little Rock Nine, to demonstrate how to replace periods with conjunctive adverbs to connect complete sentences and enhance writing.
