Welcome back, language adventurers! Today, we’re uncovering the secrets of conjunctions, the connectors of the sentence world. Conjunctions come in two types: coordinating and subordinating. Let’s explore their roles with some examples:
- Coordinating Conjunctions: She loves coffee and she loves tea.
- Subordinating Conjunctions: He went to bed because he was tired.
Coordinating conjunctions join similar sentence elements, while subordinating conjunctions link independent and dependent clauses. So, next time you’re stitching together your sentences, remember to choose the right conjunction to weave your linguistic tapestry!
