Subordinating & Coordinating Conjunctions

Importance Subordinating & coordinating conjunctions are important because they join different clauses to form long, well constructed sentences.

What is a clause? An independent clause is a phrase that can stand alone as it’s own sentence.  The car is red. A dependent clause is a phrase that needs to have another one in order to make it a complete sentence.  When the kids drove the car.

When to use Coordinating Conjunctions Use it to join independent clauses, phrases, and individual words. “And”, “but”, “or”, “nor”, “so”, or “yet” can be used.

Examples of Coordinating Conjunctions She picked daffodils and sunflowers, which are usually yellow. I wanted to go over my friends house but I had a lot of homework.

When to use Subordinate Conjunctions Introduces a dependent clause and shows the relationship between the dependent and independent clauses. Common conjunctions are “after”, “although”, “as”, “because”, “before”, “how”, “if” and “once”.

Examples of Subordinating Conjunctions If you do your homework, you can play with the dog. They lost the football game because of the bad weather.

Very Nice!
