CONJUNCTIONS
Conjunctions are words that join parts of the sentence. They may join two
similar parts of speech, such as two adjectives, two verbs, or two nouns. Conjunctions
may also connect two clauses. Coordinating conjunctions unite two independent clauses
and subordinating conjunctions join one dependent clause and one independent clause.

Types of conjunctions

1. Coordinating Conjunction

The coordinating conjunction is a conjunction that connects words or sentences with

one another which grammarily has the same position and always tastes between the
words or clauses that are connected or in short is the equivalent word or clause. the
point is simple is that each sentence can be understood even if it stands alone without a
conjunction. Among the coordinating conjunctions are: and, or, for, so, but, yet, nor,
however, nevertheles.

Example of sentences :

 He is smart and handsome. ( he is smart and handsome )

 I will come to you home today or tomorrow. ( I will come to your house today
or tomorrow )
 I am busy today so I can't help you. ( I'm busy today so I can't help you )

2. Subordinating conjunctions

If the coordinating conjunction is a conjunction that connects one word or sentence with
an equivalent, the subordinating conjunction is used to combine clauses with the main
sentence and is usually at the beginning of the clause. The subordinating conjunctions

include: who, although, after, before, how, if, till, until, when, where, since, than, that,
while.

Example of sentences:

 The boy who stands near the yellow car is my brother (male standing near the
yellow car was my brother)
 I have to Attend your party Although it is going rain (I had to attend kepestamu
despite the rain)
 I will go after you finish it. (I'll leave after you finish)

3. Correlative Conjunctions

Correlative conjunctions are conjunctions used to connect sentence elements between

words for words , phrases with phrases , and clauses with clauses (like coordinating
conjunctions). The connected sentence elements must have a parallel position
in accordance with the grammatical structure. The word used to join is: both ... and,
either ... or, Neither ... nor, not only ... but Also from, whether ... or, as ... as ..,
from..to ..., not ..but .. .

Example of sentences:

 Both Cindy  and Fara are my best friend. (both Cindi and Fara you are my best
friends)
 Neither Sara  nor Tommy agree with you. (neither Sara nor Tommy agree with
you)
 Either Rian  or Sony is a good boy.  (Either rian or Sony are good boys)
