 CONJUNCTIONS
• The part of speech that serves to connect ideas, words, phrases,
clauses, or sentences together.

• It has THREE (3) types:

Coordinating,
Correlative,
Subordinating
• Conjunctions serve as a cue within a sentence, signaling the
reader that another idea is coming.
 INDEPENDENT DEPENDENT CLAUSE
CLAUSE
a group of words that contains a subject a group of words that contains a subject
and verb and expresses a complete and verb but does not express a
thought. An independent clause is a complete thought. A dependent clause
sentence. cannot be a sentence. Often a dependent
clause is marked by a dependent
marker word.

 COORDINATING
CONJUNCTIONS
- The simple, short conjunctions that connects ideas that contain the
same thoughts or value.

- Coordinating conjunctions go in between items joined, not at the

beginning or end.

- Coordinating conjunctions are presented in the acronym …

1. Most children like biscuits and juice.

2. Chester wants his toys to be organized but he

keeps on leaving them anywhere.
 CORRELATIVE CONJUNCTIONS
- These pairs of conjunctions require equal (parallel) structures after
each one.

- These conjunctions join independent clauses together.

- The Correlative conjunctions are:

either ... or,
neither ... nor,
both ...and,
not only ... but also
whether ... or
 CORRELATIVE CONJUNCTIONS
Let’s Try This!:

1. Both my mother and my father work hard for

the family.

2. She does not only study hard but also prays

hard.
 SUBORDINATING
-CONJUNCTIONS
join two clauses together, but in doing so, they make one clause
dependent (or "subordinate") upon the other.

- Subordinating conjunctions transform the clause they introduce into a

dependent clause and leaves the other as an independent clause.

SUBORDINATING
CONJUNCTIONS
!! Since the clause “it will rain any moment now”
has been introduced by the Subordinating
Conjunction “because,” the said clause becomes
dependent and the clause “We brought our
umbrella” remains as independent. !!

 Conjunctions or connectors have its functions in the
sentences. This is especially if the conjunctions or connectors
will be used in a format text like argumentative text.

The main difference between conjunctions and transitions is

that conjunctions connect two clauses, but transitions
connect two sentences or paragraphs.

 TRANSITION
S
- are words or phrases that connect one idea to the next. We
commonly call these transition words or transition phrases.
They can show the relationship between two sentences or
between two paragraphs. In fact, transitions are used to
connect two sentences or two paragraphs. In addition to
connecting ideas, transitions can also introduce a shift,
indicate opposition, emphasis, result, etc.

 TRANSITION
S
Transitional words and phrases connect and relate ideas, sentences,
and paragraphs. They assist in the
logical flow of ideas as they signal the relationship between
sentences and paragraphs. In prose, the material is supported and
conditioned not only by the ordering of the material (its position) but
by connectives which signal order, relationship and movement.

How to Make Banana Pizza
S
Some people love banana pizza. Yes, it sounds crazy. However, almost everyone who’s tried it is a fan. In fact, banana pizza is wildly popular in Sweden.

Here’s how to make it.

First, dissolve a package of yeast and one teaspoon of sugar in 1 cup of warm water. Add ¼ cup of canola oil and a dash of salt. Slowly stir in 3½ cups
of flour. A soft dough will form.

Meanwhile, pre-heat the oven to 450° F.

Then transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead it until it becomes smooth and elastic. Put it in a bowl, cover, and set the bowl in a warm place. In
about 45 minutes, it will double.

Next, press half the dough onto a greased 12” pizza pan. Now you must decide if you want to make a savory pizza or a sweet pizza.

For a savory pizza, spread the dough with tomato sauce. Add banana slices and top with curry powder. You may want to use other ingredients, smoked
cheese and/or ham, for example.

Alternately, you can make a sweet pizza. Spread the dough with smooth peanut butter. Follow with banana slices and sprinkle with brown sugar. Top
with crushed peanuts or, equally good, maple syrup.

Bake for about ten minutes. Finally, eat!
