Conjunctions
are words that are used to join other words, phrases, or clauses.

Just like those tiny pieces that connect things.

There are three different types of conjunctions that are used to indicate different relationships between the elements joined:

Coordinating conjunctions link elements of equal value (for example: and, but, or, nor, for, so, yet).

For example: Butter and bread 🍞🧈

Correlative conjunctions are used in pairs to establish a specific relationship between elements of equal value (for example: as/as, both/and, either/or…).

For example: She is as pretty as her mom

Subordinating conjunctions indicate that one element is of lesser value (subordinate) to another element (for example: after, than, even though, rather than, unless…).

For example: She ate everything, even tough she didn't like it
