 Types of conjunctions


There are 3 type of conjunction which is:
Coordinating conjunction
"and", "but", "or", "nor", "for", "so", "or", "yet".


Subordinating conjunction
"after", "although", "as", "because", "before", "how", "if", "since", "than", "that", "though", "till", "until", "when", "whether", "and", "while".


Correlative conjunctions
"both...and", "either....or", "neither...or", "not only...but also", "so...as" and "whether..or".     


Co-ordinating conjunctions
We use a co-ordinating conjunction ("and", "or", "nor", "for", "so", "or". "yet") to join individual words, phrases, and independent clauses. Note that we can also use the conjunctions "but" and "for" as prepositions.


Subordinating Conjunctions
A subordinating conjunction introduces a dependent clause and indicates the nature of the relatioship among the independent clause(s) and the dependent clause(s)


The most common subordinating conjunctions are "after", "although", "as", "because", "before", "how", "if", "once", "since", "than", "though", "till", "until", 'when", "where", "where", "whether", and " while".


Correlative conjunctions
Correlative conjunctions always appear in pairs. We use them to link equivalent sentence elements.


The most common correlative conjunctions are "both..and", "either...or", "neither...nor", "not only..but also", "so...as", and "whether..or".


(technically correlative conjunctions consist simply of a co-ordinating conjunction linked to an adjective or adverb.)
