Introduction to Conjunctions and Rules

Conjunctions are words that connect phrases, words, and clauses to complete sentences. They allow for complex and elegant sentences while avoiding multiple short sentences, facilitating better connection and flow. Conjunctions follow certain rules, such as "TO" following conjunction form and "between" following conjunctions of comparison. They must be used correctly with other words like "until", "unless", "neither", "either", and "than" to maintain proper meaning. Conjunctions and their rules were presented to help students identify different types and proper usage.

so/as is used in negative sentences and
as/as can be used for both negative and
affirmative sentences.

[Ex.] 𝗔𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂 behave so you have to bear.


The conjunction and is always follow
after the conjunction both.
[Ex.] Both Rajat 𝗮𝗻𝗱 Meera went for shopping
Lest is a negative word and always remember the words
(not,no,never) cannot be used with lest instead use should
or the first form of the verb.
[Ex.] Dance carefully 𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘁 she should fall.

The conjunction is always followed by a


comma(,) Though/Although or yet.
[Ex.] 𝗧𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 She put in a lot of effort, she didn’t
crack the exam.

Both the unless and until are negative


words.
Unless is an action-oriented and Until is a
time-oriented. Always keep in mind that if the
clause contains until and unless words, don't use
the words (never, not, no).
• Always utilize the right conjunctions
together. similar to, but also with, and more.
[Ex.] The father asked his daughter to wait 𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗹
he returned.
[Ex.] No wonder had he finished his speech
than the audience applauded

In negative or interrogative statements,


the conjunction doubt/doubtful is
followed by that, but in affirmative
sentences, these are followed by if or
whatever.
[Ex.] He 𝗱𝗼𝘂𝗯𝘁𝘀 if he can come to drop you.

To is placed after the conjunction form,


and between is placed after between.
[Ex.] It is difficult 𝘁𝗼 choose between gold
and silver
Instead of using (neither/either), (none
of/one of) is used when there are more
than two people or items involved.
[Ex.] 𝗢𝗻𝗲 𝗼𝗳 the employees complained about
the manager
The word than comes after the
conjunction rather/other.
[Ex.] You have no other option 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻 to go back to
