Coordinating conjunctions connect words and groups of words
For example:
- I want to be a teacher or a singer.
Or is a coordinating conjunction because it connects the nouns "teacher" and "singer"
Correlative conjunctions are pairs of conjunctions. Like coordinating conjunctions, they connect words and groups of words.
For example:
- A marine biologist's work seems neither easy nor monotonous.
Neither and Nor are correlative conjunctions because they connect the adjectives "easy" and "monotonous."
A subordinate conjunction performs two functions within a sentence. First, it illustrates the importance of the independent clause. Second, it provides a transition between two ideas in the same sentence. The transition always indicates a place, time, or cause and effect relationship.
For example:
- We looked in the metal canister, where Ginger often hides her candy.
Where is a subordinating conjunction because it describes the place Ginger often hides her candy. "Where" does Ginger often hide her candy? In the metal canister.
Hope this helps!!
