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.)

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.)

Conjunctions
This section of Exploring English describes English conjunctions. A conjunction is any word or group of words, other than a relative pronoun, that connects words, phrases, or clauses: He shut the door and turned out the light. Words such as 'and', 'but', 'or', and 'nor' are coordinating conjunctions. Words such as 'while', 'where', 'since', and 'because' are subordinating conjunctions.

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.

Conjunctions
Robert Harris
Version Date: December 23, 2009
Previous: December 10, 1997 As their name implies, conjunctions join together elements of thought: words, phrases, sentences, and paragraphs. Coordinating conjunctions are the simplest kind, and they denote equality of relationship between the ideas they join. Coordinating conjunctions are sometimes called the fanboys because that is an acronym for them:
  • F or A nd N or B ut O r Y et S o
Their relatives, correlative conjunctions , not only denote equality, but they also make the joining tighter and more emphatic.
Coordinating Conjunctions Correlative Conjunctions and
but
or
nor

so
yet both . . . and
not only . . . but also either . . . or neither . . . nor whether . . . or just as . . . so too Examples:
  • John and Sally built a fish pond. The train was late, and Tom was tired. Just as the smell of baking brought back memories, so too did the taste of the cider.
Coordinating and correlative conjunctions are great when two ideas are of the same importance, but many times one idea is more important than another. Subordinating conjunctions allow a writer to show which idea is more and which is less important. The idea in the main clause is the more important, while the idea in the subordinate clause (made subordinate by the subordinating conjunction) is less important. The subordinate clause supplies a time, reason, condition, and so on for the main clause.

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
    Conjunctions are used to join words or groups of words together. The most common ones are 'and', 'or' and 'but'. (There are others - see Conjunctions in the Glossary of Terms .) Often, a conjunction sits before the last item in a list. Examples: Jamie, Adam and Lee arranged to meet by The Bull at 7 o'clock. (conjunction "and" groups "Jamie", "Adam" + "Lee")  It is a small but practical kitchen. (conjunction "but" groups "small" + "practical") The manager or his secretary will notify you when the report is ready. (conjunction "or" groups "manager" + "secretary") A little sincerity is a dangerous thing, and a great deal of it is absolutely fatal.
