A conjunction joins words or groups of words in a sentence.

•I ate lunch with Kate and Derma.
•Because it is rainy today, the trip is canceled.
•She didn’t press the bell, but I did.
There are three types of conjunctions:

1. Coordinating Conjunctions
a. Connect words, phrases, or clauses that are independent or equal
b. and, but, or, so, for, yet, and not

2. Correlative Conjunctions
a. Used in pairs
b. both/and, either/or, neither/nor, not only/but also

3. Subordinating Conjunctions
a. Used at the beginning of subordinate clauses
b. although, after, before, because, how, if, once, since, so that, until, unless, when, while, where, whether, etc.

    Coordinating Conjunctions
    1. And—means "in addition to":

    •We are going to a zoo and an aquarium on a same day.
    2. But—connects two different things that are not in agreement:

    •I am a night owl, but she is an early bird.
    3. Or—indicates a choice between two things:

    •Do you want a red one or a blue one?
    4. So—illustrates a result of the first thing:

    •This song has been very popular, so I downloaded it.
    5. For—means "because":

    •I want to go there again, for it was a wonderful trip.
    6. Yet—indicates contrast with something:

    •He performed very well, yet he didn’t make the final cut.
