The use of proper
conjunction is of high
importance. A conjunction is
a part of a speech that acts
like a bridge because it joins
or connects two or more
words, phrases, and
clauses together.
Two Kinds of Conjunctions
 Subordinating
Conjunctions
and
 Coordinating
Conjunctions
Subordinating Conjunction
-is a word that joins an
independent clause
(main clause) and a
dependent clause-
(subordinate clause
This kind of conjunction
starts a dependent
clause and signals that
the dependent clause
has information that
needs to be added to the
independent clause.
The information can
show a contrast,
comparison, condition,
cause and effect, and
chronology.
We call them 5Cs.
Here are some common
subordinating conjunctions
and their respective function
Example:
As soon as the vaccines
arrived in the country, the
groups with highest risks will
be vaccinated first.
The underlined words
comprise the dependent
clause (subordinate
clause). It begins with a
subordinating conjunction
as soon as that is
encircled.
The conjunction as soon as
served its purpose as
chronology because it is
used to express the
sequence of two events.
-the arrival of the vaccines in the
country and
-the vaccination of the groups
with highest risks
Finally, the group of
words inside the box is
called the independent
clause (main clause)
because it can stand
alone.
It
expresses a
complete thought
even without the
dependent clause.
Choose the correct
subordinating conjunction to
complete the sentence.
1. (Even though, After, So that)

ordinances implemented on
proper health protocol, the

hands (as well as,
though, after) any

(before, because,

better than cure.
4. (Unless, While,
However) the people

proper health protocol,
we cannot end this
covid-19 pandemic
easily.
5. Covid-19 spreads
