7. Clauses are combined in three different ways:
coordination, subordination, and by means of
semicolon.
 COORDINATION
- Involves joining independent clauses with one of the
coordinating conjunction: and, but, or, nor, for,
and yet.
e.g.
For example:
Mr. Smith arrived early this morning, but I didn’t
meet him.

8.  SUBORDINATION
- It involves turning one of the clauses into a
subordinate element through the use of
subordinating conjunction or a relative pronoun.
e.g.
Although Ramonita often thought about joining the
choir, she never talked to her friends about it.
 SEMICOLONS
- Can connect two independent clauses with or
without the help of a conjunctive adverb
e.g.
Ramonita has such a beautiful voice; many couples
have asked her to sing at their wedding.
Ramonita’s voice has a clear, angelic quality;
furthermore, she clearly enjoys using it.
