Conjunctions
Definition
Some words are satisfied spending an evening at home, alone, eating ice-cream right out of the box, watching Seinfeld re-runs on TV, or reading a good book. Others aren't happy unless they're out on the town, mixing it up with other words; they're joiners and they just can't help themselves. A conjunction is a joiner, a word that connects (conjoins) parts of a sentence.
Coordinating Conjunctions
The simple, little conjunctions are called coordinating conjunctions (you can click on the words to see specific descriptions of each one): Coordinating Conjunctions and but or yet ... so
(It may help you remember these conjunctions by recalling that they all have fewer than four letters. Also, remember the acronym FANBOYS F or- A nd- N or- B ut- O r- Y et- S o. Be careful of the words then and now ; neither is a coordinating conjunction, so what we say about coordinating conjunctions' roles in a sentence and punctuation does not apply to those two words.)

Correlative conjunctions
Filed in English Grammar Some conjunctions are used in pairs. They are called correlative conjunctions. Most of these are of the coordinating type. Either …or
  • You must either follow my instructions or resign. He is either a fool or a madman. Either you or he will have to go. Either you will leave this house or I will call the police. I don’t speak either French or German.
We use either…or to talk about a choice between two possibilities (and sometimes more than two).
  • If you want ice-cream you can have either chocolate, vanilla or strawberry.
Neither … nor
  • I will neither follow your instructions nor resign. He is neither a fool nor a madman. I neither smoke nor drink.
We use neither … nor to join two negative ideas. It is the opposite of both…and. Sometimes more than two ideas are connected by neither…nor.

7. Conjunctions
Conjunctions are words that join two parts of a sentence. Conjunctions are of two types coordinating conjunction and subordinating conjunction.

Conjunctions
A conjunction is a word that "joins". A conjunction joins two parts of a sentence. Here are some example conjunctions: Coordinating Conjunctions Subordinating Conjunctions and, but, or, nor, for, yet, so although, because, since, unless We can consider conjunctions from three aspects.
Form
Conjunctions have three basic forms:
  • Single Word
    for example: and, but, because, although
  • Compound (often ending with as or that
    for example: provided that, as long as, in order that
  • Correlative (surrounding an adverb or adjective)
    for example: so...that
Function
Conjunctions have two basic functions or "jobs":
  • Coordinating conjunctions are used to join two parts of a sentence that are grammatically equal. The two parts may be single words or clauses, for example:
    Jack and Jill went up the hill.
    The water was warm, but I didn't go swimming
  • Subordinating conjunctions are used to join a subordinate dependent clause to a main clause, for example:
    I went swimming although it was cold
Position
  • Coordinating conjunctions always come between the words or clauses that they join.

Coordinating Conjunctions
The short, simple conjunctions are called "coordinating conjunctions":
  • and, but, or, nor, for, yet, so
A coordinating conjunction joins parts of a sentence (for example words or independent clauses) that are grammatically equal or similar. A coordinating conjunction shows that the elements it joins are similar in importance and structure: Look at these examples - the two elements that the coordinating conjunction joins are shown in square brackets [ ]:
  • I like [tea] and [coffee].
  • [Ram likes tea], but [Anthony likes coffee].
Coordinating conjunctions always come between the words or clauses that they join. When a coordinating conjunction joins independent clauses, it is always correct to place a comma before the conjunction:
  • I want to work as an interpreter in the future, so I am studying Russian at university.
However, if the independent clauses are short and well-balanced, a comma is not really essential:
  • She is kind so she helps people.

Conjunctions
by Elaine Ernst Schneider
Objective(s) By the end of this lesson the student will be able to:

1. define the term 'conjunction'
2. differentiate between coordinating conjunctions and subordinating conjunctions Pre-Class Assignment: Resources/Equipment/Time Required: Outline:
The conjunction is the seventh of the eight parts of speech. Just for the record, here are all eight: noun, pronoun, adjective, verb, adverb, preposition, conjunction, and interjection. Let's start with a basic definition: Conjunctions are words that join words or groups of words.
There are two main types of conjunctions. They are coordinating conjunctions and subordinating conjunctions. Coordinating conjunctions include: . These conjunctions connect words, phrases, and clauses of equal value. Clauses of equal value are called independent clauses and can stand on their own as separate sentences. Example: John is running in this race and I am carrying his water bottle. (Each clause can stand alone: John is running in this race. I am carrying his water bottle.) Subordinating conjunctions introduce dependent clauses. Dependent clauses cannot stand alone as a single sentence. In fact, the clause is dependent on the rest of the sentence for its meaning. Example: Since I will not be home, Tina will answer the phone. ("Since I will not be home" doesn't make sense by itself. It is dependent on the rest of the sentence for its meaning.)

Paired Conjunctions and Transitional Phrases
Dear Purdue or UniSA Grammar staff or students,
Can you explain what 'paired conjunctions' and 'transitional phrases' are for a teaching colleague in Singapore, please?
We are looking for an explanation, examples and resources.
Many thanks
Andrea
**UPDATE**
Transitional devices connect bits of information (large or small) in different ways. To borrow from Purdue's OWL, transitional devices work like bridges, linking together various objects, ideas, paragraphs, or even whole parts of a paper. I use the phrase "linking together" quite loosely, because some transitional devices, such as "whereas" or "in contrast," highlight the fact that the items are completely different from or even opposed to each other. The OWL has an excellent list of transitional devices, which are categorized according to function.

CONJUNCTIONS

(fragment from Definition M9 in LSEG)
" Conjunction " is the sentence element used to link two similar sentence elements, or two clauses in a complex sentence. Although conjunctions have no syntactic functions by themselves, they set complex morphologic and syntactic

Subordinating conjunctions set/mark important relations between the clauses of a complex sentence. However, in many instances similar subordinating relations may be achieved using other sentence elements working as " conjunction-equivalents ". For example:
a. interrogative and relative adjectives
b. interrogative and relative pronouns
c. interrogative and relative adverbs
d. conjunctions and prepositions followed by verbs in "-ing" form

    zSB(3,3) Paired conjunctions are often used in both spoken and written English to make a point, give an explanation, or discuss alternatives. Unfortunately, not only are they difficult to use, but their structure is also rather strict! For this reason, this lesson is a straight forward, teacher centered, grammar lesson focusing on written and oral production of the target structure. Aim: Grammar focus on the use of paired conjunctions Activity: Teacher introduction followed by sentence completion, construction and, finally, oral drill work Level: Upper-intermediate Outline:
    • Introduce paired conjunctions by asking students to give reasons for some simple event. Take two of the suggestions and construct target structure sentences using paired conjunctions. For example: Either John has stayed at home or he has been held up in traffic.
