    CONJUNCTIONS

    Comes from a Latin word


    meaning to join
    They are words that join words,
    phrases or clauses
    They express the relationship
    of ideas in a sentence
    Three Kinds of Conjunctions
    1.Coordinating Conjunctions
    2.Subordinating Conjunctions
    3.Correlative Conjunctions
    1. Coordinating Conjunctions
    And used to connect the same
    line of thought or qualities
    Ex. She is pretty and attractive.
    - Use to connect positive and
    negative qualities.
    Ex. She is pretty and stubborn.
    - Used to join two verbs.
    Ex. Mother cooks well and takes care
    of us.
    - Used to join two subordinate clauses
    which are both used as objects of the
    ver.
    Ex. I dont know what time he left
    the house and where he went.
    Aside from and, you can also use
    furthermore, as well as, both and, not
    only but also
    But - a type of conjunction that adds
    something contrary to or different from
    what has already been said.
    Ex. He is bright but stupid at all
    times.

    Aside from but, you can also use however,


    yet, nevertheless, and on the other
    hand
    Or - implies a choice. It connects ideas
    of equal value, giving one a chance to
    choose between two or more ideas.
    Ex. You can pay me today or
    tomorrow.

    Aside from or, you can also use eitheror,


    neithernor, and otherwise
    So - implies the same line of
    thought. It may also imply a
    contrast
    Ex. He did not follow the rules
    so he ought to be punished.
    2. Subordinating Conjunctions
    are used to introduce
    subordinate clauses. It is used
    to convey the relationship of
    thoughts between the ideas in
    the sentence.
    Uses of the different types of
    subordinating conjunctions:
    1. It links the subordinate clause to the
    main clause.
    2. It makes clear exactly what is the
    relation between the two clause.
    3. The chief relations they show are: time,
    place, cause, result, exception,
    condition and alternative.
    The most common subordinating
    conjunctions are:

    After Because So that Whatever


    Although Before Than When
    As If Though Whenever
    As if In order Till Where
    that
    As long as Provided Unless Wherever
    As though since until while
    3. Correlative Conjunctions
    - they go in pairs: eitheror,
    neither nor, both and, not
    only but also.
    - These conjunctions emphasize
    that two things or two persons are
    involved.
