Conjunctions and linking words
Conjunctions are linking words like and, or, but, then and because. The two main types of conjunctions are coordinating (words such as and and but) and subordinating. Subordinating conjunctions (e.g. because, if, when, in order to) link a subordinate clause to a main clause. Temporal subordinating conjunctions are words such as when, while, before, after, until, once, as soon as. Click on a topic to learn more about conjunctions and linking words.
