CONJUNCTION
DEFINATION
:!: The conjunction is the part of speech used as a “joiner” for words, phrases, or clauses in a particular sentence. It links these words or groups of words together, in such a way that certain relationships among these different parts of the sentence will be established, and the thoughts that all of these convey will be connected.
HOW TO USE THE CONJUNCTION PART OF SPEECH?
:fire: Subordinating Conjunctions
Known as subordinators, these conjunctions join dependent clauses to independent clauses.
Example : We looked in the metal canister, where Ginger often hides her candy.
The transition always indicates a place, time, or cause and effect relationship.
:fire: Coordinating Conjunctions
There are just a few rules for using coordinating conjunctions correctly
Ensure that the coordinating conjunction is immediately followed by a main clause
Don’t use coordinating conjunctions to begin all of your sentences. Do so only when it makes your writing more effective.
Although commas typically follow coordinating conjunctions used in areas other than the beginning of a sentence, they should not be used after coordinating conjunctions used to open sentences unless an interrupter immediately follows.
Known as coordinators, these conjunctions coordinate or join two or more sentences, main clauses, words, or other parts of speech which are of the same syntactic importance.
Example: This batch of mushroom stew is savory and delicious.
:fire: Conjunctive adverbs
Conjunctive adverbs are parts of speech that are used to connect one clause to another. They are also used to show sequence, contrast, cause and effect, and other relationships.
additional rules for using conjunctive adverbs
Always use a period or semicolon before the conjunctive adverb when separating two independent clauses.
Use a comma if a conjunction such as and, but, or, or so appears between the conjunctive adverb and the first clause.
Use a comma behind conjunctive adverbs when they appear at the beginning of a sentence’s second clause.
If a conjunctive adverb appears in the middle of a clause, it should be enclosed in commas most of the time.
:fire: correlative conjunction
These conjunctions correlate, working in pairs to join phrases or words that carry equal importance within a sentence.
When using correlative conjunctions, ensure verbs agree so your sentences make sense.
When you use a correlative conjunction, you must be sure that pronouns agree.
When using correlative conjunctions, be sure to keep parallel structure intact.
Exmple : She is both intelligent and beautiful

:pen: My dog enjoys being bathed but hates getting his nails trimmed.
