Subordinating

Conjunctions
Subordinate conjunctions join two complete ideas by making one of the ideas
subordinate to or dependant upon the other

A subordinate clause--sometimes called a dependent clause--will begin with a


subordinate conjunction or a relative pronoun and will contain both a subject and
a verb. This combination of words will not form a complete sentence.

Here is a list of subordinate conjunctions:

after in order that until

although lest when

as now that whenever

as if once where

as long as provided whereas

as much as provided that wherever

as soon as rather than whether

as though since which

because so that while

before than who

even if that whom

even though though why

how till

if unless
