List of Conjunctions used in English

Conjunctionsjoin words, phrases and clauses together. This article.provides a brief

overview of the different types of conjunctions and their function in sentences.

1. Coordinating Conjunctions
• but
• so
• or
• and

Coordinating conjunctions join words, phrases, or independent clauses Of a sentence together.

They often link similar grammatical parts of a sentence together (parts of speech + parts of
speech / phrase + phrase / clause + clause ). Here are some example sentences:

1. We went to the park, but we did not have time for the museum.
2. She has to work late tonight; so she cannot make it to party.
3. Let's meet at the beach or in front of the hotel.
4. On Friday night we watched TV and a movie.

In a sentence, Coordinating conjunctions come in between the individual words, phrases,

and independent clauses they are joining.

2. Subordinating Conjunctions
• after / before
• although I even though
• because I as
• if
• as long as I provided that
• till / until
• unless
• when / once / as soon as
• while / whereas
• in spite of / despite

Subordinating conjunctions join an independent clause (which contains both a subject and a
verb and can actas a complete sentence) and a dependent clause (which also contains a
subject and a verb, but is not a complete sentence). Here are some example sentences:

I. They went running, although / even though it was very hot.

2. We went to the beach despite / in spite of the rainy weather.
3. We decided to go to the cinema because / as it was too cold to go to the beach.
4. Monica lives in New York, while / whereas her brother lives in California.
5. He went to work after he (had) finished his breakfast.

_ ...._
.......... _-_ _--------------------------------
.. ..
 6. He finished breakfast before he went to work.
7. I will go there if / provided that / as long as you go too.
8. I won't go there unless you go too
9. We can leave when / once you are ready.
10. You can't drive until / till you get your licence.

Subordinating conjunctions always COlTIe at the beginning of a dependent clause. However,

dependent clauses can sometimes come before an independent clause (separated by a
comma). So, we could write the above sentences this way:

1. Although / Even though it was very hot, they went running.

2. Despite / In spite of the rainy weather, we went to the beach.
3. Because / as it was too cold to go to the beach, we decided to go to the cinema.
4. While I Whereas her brother lives in California, Monica lives in New York.
S. After he (had) finished his breakfast, he went to work.
6. Before he went to work, he finished his breakfast.
7. If / Provided that / As long as you go too, I will go there.
8. Unless you go too, I won't go there.
9. When / Once you are ready, we can leave.
10. Until / Till you get your licence, you can't drive.

Coordinating conjunctions join parts of sentence that are similar whereas subordinating
conjunctions often shows a contrasting or unequal relationship.

3. Linking words across sentences

Linking words across sentences always link a second sentence to an idea in the previous
sentence. That means they come at the beginning of the second sentence.

• In addition, / Furthermore,
• However, / On the other hand,
• Therefore, / Consequently,
• First(ly), / Second(ly), / Third(ly), / Finally,

Linking words across sentences are used either for contrast with the previous sentence or
for continuing the same idea. Here are some examples:

Perth is a nice place to live for many reasons including the fantastic summer weather
and the beaches and parks. In addition, / Furthermore, there are a lot of pubs, clubs,
restaurants and cafes to enjoy. However, / On the other hand, there is not much to
do in winter when it is cold and rainy and not much fun to do outdoor activities.
Therefore, / Consequently, if you are planning to visit Perth, it is best to come
between November and April which is the hottest time.

Before you travel you need to think about a number of things. Firstlly), make sure
your passport is up-to-date. Second(ly), get some travel insurance in case something
goes wrong on your trip. Third(ly), make sure you pack a hat, a pair of sunglasses
and some strong sunscreen for the beach. Finally, change some money into Aussie
dollars before you leave your country.

Quick and Handy Grammar Review: Conjunctions

Conjunctions are words that join parts of the sentence. They may join two similar parts of speech, such as two adjectives,
two verbs, or two nouns. Conjunctions may also connect two clauses. Coordinating conjunctions unite two independent
clauses and subordinating conjunctions join one dependent clause and one independent clause.

Coordinating Conjunctions:

yet for nor

so

To recall the seven coordinating conjunctions, remember the word FANBOYS [For And Nor But Or Yet So].
Notes:
• Do not begin a sentence- with the coordinating conjunctions and, but. so, or yet.
For is poetic. It means because. For is rarely used as a conjunction in modem English.
• Nor, used by itself, usually begins a sentence. It is usually followed by do or does and.then, the subject.
[e.g., I don ~like opera. Nor do I like, chamber music.]
• As a conjunction, yet means but. It is used more often in writing than in speaking.
• Use a comma before the conjunction when 2 independent clauses are joined. You don't need to use a comma if
those clauses are short or if they have the same subject.

Subordiuating Conjunctions:
These words are often called subordinators. They are used at the beginning of a dependent clause in a complex sentence.
Note that the order of the clauses doesn't matter, but there is a comma when the dependent clause is first in the sentence
(Subordinating conjunction S V, S V) and no comma when the independent clause is first (S V Subordinating conjunc-
tion S V).

each side of the conjunction.

either ... or not ... but whether ... or

.,. as

• Whether you earn an A or get a lower grade, do your best. [Each conjunction is followed by a verb]
