Connectors are the words which combine two words, phrases and sentences together. They have the same
meaning of a conjunction but differ in their function. Difference between conjunction and connectors: Conjunctions
are used to connect a noun with another noun; two independent clauses; different sentences; a group of words.
Connectors are used to connect a large group of words; phrases; sentences. For example Lisa and Caroline are
Friends. Here “and” connects two nouns. It is a conjunction. I broke my leg however, I still feel great. Here however
connects two groups of words, which relate to each other.
