IN ENGLISH GRAMMER

2. Connectors
Connector is something which
joins two words, two phrases,
two ideas or two sentences.

city; nevertheless it is also very
expensive” or
“Despite the fact that London is very
expensive, it is also very exciting”

4. Types of connectors.
• There are various types of connectors. We
can divide them into:
1. Coordinating Conjunctions
2. Correlative Conjunctions
3. Subordinating Conjunctions

5. Coordinating Conjunctions
• They connect words, phrases and
clauses. They are usually found in the
middle of a sentence with a comma (,)
just before the conjunction, or at the
beginning of the sentence.

6. Coordinating Conjunctions:
1. F or
2. A nd
3. N or
4. B ut
5. O r
6. Y et
7. S o

7. Correlative Conjunctions
• They connect equal sentence elements
together (like two nouns) and are
always composed by two words.

8. Correlative Conjunctions:
• both…and
not only…but also
not…but
either…or
neither…nor
whether…or
as…as

9. Subordinating Conjunctions
• They connect a dependent clause and
an independent clause and establish a
relationship between them. They
happen at the beginning of a sentence
(with a comma in the middle
separating the clauses) or in the
middle of a sentence with no comma.

10. Subordinating Conjunctions:
after if though although
if only till as in order that
unless as if now that until
as long as once when as though
rather than whenever because since
where before so that whereas
even if than wherever even though
