In this cool night, it’s better to learn English, right? Do you want to study English grammar? Grammar is one of important aspect of English. If you understand about grammar, your English will be perfect. You will also be able to understand English text easily.

Well, in this occasion, I will give explanation about “Conjunction”.
Do you ever hear about this material before? If you are not, please pay attention my explanation about this material and read this material carefully. Oke, check this out.

Conjunction: Definition & Types

Conjunctions are used to join clauses, phrases, and words together for constructing sentences. Conjunctions make a link between/among words or groups of words to other parts of the sentence and show a relationship between/among them.

Example:

• Bella and Vino are playing together.
• Bella plays well, but Vino plays better than him.
• I play cricket, and Vino plays football.
• When she was sick, I went to see her.

Types of Conjunctions

• Coordinating Conjunctions
• Correlative Conjunctions
• Subordinating Conjunctions

Coordinating Conjunctions:

The job of a coordinating conjunction is to join two words, phrases, or independent clauses, which are parallel in structure. There are seven coordinating conjunctions which are by far the most common conjunctions:  and, but, for, nor, or, so, yet.

Example:

• I went to the stadium and enjoyed the football match.
• Do you want an ice mango or apple?
• Go away and never come back.

Correlative Conjunctions:

A correlative conjunction uses a set of words in a parallel sentence structure to show a contrast or to compare the equal parts of a sentence. The words of correlative conjunctions have a special connection between them.

The correlative conjunctions are not only – but also, either- or, neither – nor, both – and, not – but, whether – or.

Example:

• Neither Dino nor Riyan can play volleyball.
• I want both tea and coffee
• She ate not only the ice cream but also the chocolate.

Subordinating Conjunctions:

A subordinating conjunction joins elements of an unparallel sentence structure. These elements are usually a dependent clause and an independent clause.

Most commonly used subordinating conjunctions are:

After, how, than, when, although, if, that, where, as, in order that, though, which, as much as, inasmuch as, unless, while, because, provided, until, who/whom, before, since, what, whoever/whomever.

Example:

• Before we go to school, we had had my breakfast.
• Provided they come, we can start class Tuesday.
• When he was washing my motorcycle, I went to the store.
• Even though the weather was horrible, they still went outside.

Okey, That’s all my explanation about this point. Thanks for your attention and thanks for visiting this website. See you next time…
