The document discusses transition words and their functions. It provides examples of coordinating conjunctions that are used to join clauses, phrases, or sentences. It also gives examples of subordinating conjunctions that are used to indicate time and sequence. Finally, the document categorizes other common transition words based on their functions, such as contrast, emphasis, exemplification, and summarizing.
