Conjunction[One out of Eight Parts Of Speech]

"words that connect other words, phrases and sentences"

A conjunction joins words, clauses and sentences; as "John and James." "My father and mother have come, but I have not seen them.". A conjunction is used to link words, phrases, and clauses

Conjunctions are so called because they are generally placed before the words whose connection or relation with other words they point out.
Examples of common English Conjunctions: and, also; either, or; neither, nor; but, however

Correlative Conjunctions
The Correlative type always appear in pairs. Examples of the correlative type include the words "either...or," "neither...nor,", "not only...but also" and "whether...or". Correlative conjunctions are used to link equivalent sentence elements.

Coordinating Conjunctions
Examples of co-ordinating conjunctions include the words "and," "but," "or," "nor," "for," "so," and "yet". There are only seven coordinating types in the English language. Co-ordinating types are used to join individual words, phrases, and independent clauses.

Subordinating Conjunctions
Examples of subordinating include the words "after," "although," "as," "because," "before," "how," "if," "once," "since," "than," "that," "though," "till," "until," "when," "where," "whether," and "while". Subordinating words are used to indicate the nature of the relationship among the independent clause and the dependent clause. Subordinators are usually a single word, but there are also a number of multi-word subordinators that function like a single subordinating conjunction example: 'even though'. Both coordinating and subordinating can join clauses.

Are you in love with English?

French may be the language of love, but English also has its share of romantic expressions. Here are some handy phrases to use when you talk about your girlfriend or boyfriend.

1. Love makes the world go round. Some people think that money makes the world go round. But for true romantics, love is the most important thing in life.

2. Your better half. This refers to your girlfriend or boyfriend. You can also call your partner 'my other half' - but your better half is better than your other half!

3. The light of my life. The light of your life is the person who makes you smile, and feel great! You could also say to your loved one, "Darling, you light up my life".

4. She drives me crazy! No, it doesn't mean she makes you insane! If somebody drives you crazy, they make your heart beat faster. For example, "You're crazy about Amy, why don't you ask her out?"

5. Falling in love. To fall in love means a whole lot more than to love. To love someone is great,but to fall in love means you just can't live without someone! Remember - don't tell your girlfriend/boyfriend "I'm falling in love with you" too soon. It's better to wait until you really know.

6. Perfect match. Have you found your perfect match? Your perfect match is exactly that – the person that matches you perfectly in every way. We also use the expression 'soul mate'.

7. Seeing, Dating, Going steady. When you first start going out with someone, you don't want to seem too serious. You might say 'I'm seeing someone'. After a while, you begin dating them. Finally, you go steady with them. This means that you are officially boyfriend and girlfriend.

8. You are too good to be true! You say this to someone if you think they are so amazing they can't be real. You could also say you are like a dream come true.

9. Significant other. This is a modern way to refer to your partner or lover in the third person. So you could say Can I bring my significant other to the party?, but not Honey, you are my significant other.

10. Love at first sight. This is when two people fall in love immediately, the first time they see each other. If you believe this, then you're a true romantic!
