Conjunctions By: Mary S. Roland

Conjunctions are words that connect other words or groups of words to a sentence. Conjunctions can connect two subjects, two predicates, or two sentences. Conjunctions can also connect other words in a sentence. Conjunctions: and but nor or So yet for and Joins together Rhea and Anita but Shows relationships but Anita can’t wait or Shows choice Rhea or Anita

Coordinating Conjunctions Join words, phrases, and sentences. and, but, nor, so, or, yet Examples: The kids came late and baked a cake. I went to the ballpark but the game was canceled. I have a sled yet it never snows here.

Subordinating Conjunctions Join dependent clauses to independent clauses ~ after, although, as, as if, because, before, for, it once, since, so so that, than, that, thought, till unless, until, when, whenever, where, whereas, wherever, whether, while. Examples: Father came home after the work was done. We were happy once the ice cream was served. Daniel practiced his music so that he could try out for band. I cannot go until she comes.

Correlative Conjunctions Are always used in pars in a phrase or sentence even though they are split up by others words. both/and, either/or, neither/nor, not only/but also, whether/or Examples: 1) The hungry elephant ate not only the pretzels but also the peanuts. 2) You should have given him either the pretzels or the peanuts. 3) Yes, but he wanted to have both the pretzels and the peanuts.

Adverbial Conjunctions Join clauses or sentences of equal importance. accordingly, besides, consequently, furthermore, hence, however, likewise, moreover, nevertheless, so, still, therefore, thus Examples: 1) The pretzel bag was left open; consequently, the pretzels went stale. My dog doesn’t like peanuts; however, he loves peanut butter! I think, therefore I am.
