Conjunctions are words that connect words, phrases, or sentences together. Some common conjunctions include and, or, but, so, then, as. Conjunctions can join similar ideas with "and" or contrasting ideas with "but". They can also show a choice between options with "or" and indicate a result with "so". Conjunctions function to connect ideas and show relationships between different parts of speech, phrases, and sentences.
