    English Conjunctions
    A conjunction is a word that functions as a connector between between other words, phrases,
    clauses, or sentences.
    Conjunctions join the thoughts expressed in phrses, clauses or sentences together.
    Coordinating        Correlative
    Coordinating Correlative
    conjunctions are the conjunctions, not
    Conjunctions Conjunctions
    simplest kind, and only denote equality,
    they denote equality and but they also make both . . . and
    of relationship but the joining tighter not only . . .
    between the ideas or and more emphatic. but also
    they join. nor either . . . or
    for neither . . . nor
    so whether . . . or
    yet just as . . . so
    too

    Coordinating and correlative conjunctions are great when two ideas are of the same importance,
    but many times one idea is more important than another.

    Subordinatin Subordinating Conjunctions


    g onjunctions
    allow a writer Time Reason Concession Place Condition Manner
    to show
    which idea is after because although where if as if
    more and before since though wherever unless as though
    which is less since as even though until how
    important. when so that while in case
    The idea in whenever in order that provided that
    the main while now that assuming that
    clause is the until why whether or
    more as not
    important, as . . . as even if
    while the once
    idea in the
    subordinate
    clause (made
    subordinate
    by the
    subordinating
    conjunction)
    is less
    important.
    The
    subordinate
    clause
    supplies a
    time, reason,
    condition,
    and so on for
    the main
    clause.
    Conjunctive adverbs make up
    Conjunctive Adverbs
    an even stronger category of
    conjunctions. also consequently
    They show logical relationships hence furthermore
    between two independent however nevertheless
    sentences, between sections of still instead
    paragraphs, or between entire likewise moreover
    paragraphs. otherwise then
    Conjunctive adverbs are so therefore thus
    emphatic that they should be conversely meanwhile
    used sparingly; rather accordingly
    however, when used
    appropriately, they can be quite
    effective.

    Examples:

     If the salmon is grilled, I will have that; otherwise, I might have the chicken.

     James has a garage full of wood working tools. He might, however, have some metric
    wrenches, too.

     I do not recommend that you play with a stick of dynamite lit at both ends. Rather, a ham
    sandwich would be better for you.

    Relative pronouns and relative adjectives are also used to join ideas together by creating
    adjective or noun clauses, which allow a writer to create smoother, more flowing and effective
    sentences by combining ideas.
     
    Relative Pronouns and Relative Adjectives

    who which
    whom that
    whose what
    whoever whichever
    whomever whatever

    Examples:

     This is the man who sells peanuts.

     Tell me what you want.

     Hers is an idea that I would like to think through.


     The shirts, which are in the laundry, will need ironing.

    Adverbs of time, place, and sequence are actually transitions of logic, but as such they also
    have conjunctive force, because they connect ideas by showing a time relationship.
     
    Adverbs of Time, Place, and Sequence

    earlier then first


    next now second
    lastly soon third
    later here fourth
    before there eventually
    after today tomorrow

    Examples:

     The twilight glides away. Soon night will awake.
