CONJUCTION
- Conjunctions connect words or groups of words.
- Unlike prepositions, conjunctions don’t have objects. Rather, they serve as a way to show a relationship between two words.
- And
- But
- For
- Nor
- Or
- So
- Yet
Similar to coordinating conjunctions in that they connect the same type of words, but work in pairs.
a. both…and
b. either/neither….or
c. not only…..but also
d. whether.....or
Connect things which are not equal. One is less important (subordinate) than the other.
E.g:
1 - Because it rained all day, our basement filled up with water.
2 - did the planning after he made reservations.
