Types of conjunction

 A conjunction is a word that is used to connect words, phrases, or clauses in a sentence. Conjunctions can be used to indicate a variety of relationships between the words or clauses that they connect, such as cause and effect, contrast, or addition.


Here are some common types of conjunctions:


Coordinating conjunctions connect words, phrases, or clauses that are of equal grammatical rank. Examples include: and, or, but, nor, for, yet, and so.


Subordinating conjunctions connect clauses, where one clause is dependent on the other. Examples include: after, although, as, because, before, if, since, though, and until.


Correlative conjunctions are pairs of conjunctions that work together to connect words, phrases, or clauses. Examples include both...and, either...or, neither...nor, not only...but also.


Conjunctive adverbs are words that function like conjunctions but are used to connect clauses or sentences. Examples include: furthermore, however, therefore, nevertheless, otherwise, etc.
