• A conjunction is a joiner, a
word that connects parts of a
sentence.
There are three basic types of
conjunctions.
– coordinating conjunctions used to
connect two independent clauses,
– subordinating conjunctions used to
connect the dependent clause and the
rest of the sentence, and
– correlative conjunctions which always
travel in pairs, and join sentence parts
that should be treated as equal.
COORDINATING CONJUNCTIONS
• Coordinating conjunctions may join single
words, or they may join groups of words,
• The seven coordinating conjunctions in
English are:

F A N B O Y S
Conjunctions are used to join sentences or clauses together.

SUBORDINATING CONJUNCTIONS
•A subordinating conjunction is a word
which joins together a dependent
clause and an independent clause.
•Common subordinating conjunctions:
BECAUSE, AS, SINCE, SO,
ALTHOUGH, (even) THOUGH,
WHEREAS, WHILE, AFTER
Correlative CONJUNCTIONS
• Some
conjunctions
combine with other
words to form what are
called
correlative
conjunctions.
They
always travel in pairs,
joining sentence parts
that should be treated
as equal.
