Conjunctions are words that join or connect the parts of a sentence. They are more often than not the binders that glue an idea in a sentence to the other idea.
2
AND “And” is a conjunction used to express an idea that is sequential to the other. Example: Jenny got a jar and she bathe without even talking. BUT “But” is a conjunction used to express opposing ideas. Example: Jenny got a jar but she was too lazy to take a bath. OR “Or” is a conjunction used to express a possibility or a choice of ideas. Example: Jenny can get a jar or she can directly bath using the shower.
3
NEITHER-NOR “Neither-Nor” are conjunctions that well go together. They are less commonly used in a sentence but are present to show comparison. Example: She is neither stupid nor excellent. YET “Yet” is a conjunction that gives the same meaning as “but” or “nevertheless”. Example: The pan is still not hot yet he put the egg on it.

Interjections are words that best describes as short exclamations. They stand alone in a sentence and are used to offer exaggerated feelings. Interjections do not follow a certain type or kind and is the easiest part of the speech to distinguish. EXAMPLES: Ouch! That hurts. Wow! You did it correctly.
