CONJUNCTIONS
GIOVANNA PONZONI
WHAT ARE
CONJUNCTIONS?
Conjunctions are words that
connect other words, phrases,
or clauses in a sentence,
helping to link ideas and create
smoother, more coherent
sentences.
TYPES OF
CONJUNCTIONS
Conjunctions come in
different types, each
serving a specific purpose
in connecting elements in a
sentence.
Coordinating Conjunctions
Correlative Conjunctions
Subordinating Conjunctions
COORDINATING
CONJUNCTIONS
Coordinating conjunctions like
'and,' 'but,' 'or,' 'so,' 'yet,' and
'for' are used to connect equal
sentence elements, such as words,
phrases, or clauses.
"I wanted to go to the movies, but I had to
finish my homework."
EXAMPLE
In this example, "but" is a coordinating
conjunction that joins two independent clauses.
Subordinating conjunctions like
'although,' 'because,' and
'while' connect dependent
clauses to independent clauses.
SUBORDINATING
CONJUNCTIONS
EXAMPLE
Because it was raining, they decided to stay
indoors."
Here, "because" is a subordinating conjunction
that introduces a dependent clause and
connects it to the independent clause.
CORRELATIVE
CONJUNCTIONS
Correlative conjunctions like
'either...or,' 'neither...nor,' and
'both...and' work in pairs to connect
similar sentence elements.
EXAMPLE
"Either you can choose the blue shirt, or you
can pick the red one."
In this sentence, "either...or" is a pair of
correlative conjunctions that work together to
connect two choices
IMPORTANCE OF
CONJUNCTIONS
Conjunctions are the glue that holds
sentences together, improving
structure and making your writing
more concise and comprehensible.
Mastering conjunctions is essential for
improving your writing. Do you have any
questions or need further clarification?
