Conjunctions: Connect Words, Phrases, and Clauses

Conjunctions are words that join together words, phrases, or clauses. They help link ideas and make sentences more cohesive. The three main types of conjunctions are coordinating conjunctions (e.g., “and,” “but,” “or”), subordinating conjunctions (e.g., “because,” “although”), and correlative conjunctions (e.g., “either…or,” “neither…nor”). These words allow you to combine ideas and express relationships like contrast, cause and effect, and choice.

Learning to use conjunctions properly makes your writing smoother and your ideas clearer.
