We use conjunction in sentences to convey more than one thing in a single sentence. Conjunction makes it easy to express complex phrases in a simple sentence because, and, between, until, or, but, yet are some examples of conjunction words. Understand the <strong>rules of conjunctions <\/strong>and ways of applying them to improve your conversation skills and your scores in any competitive exams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons aligncenter is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.oliveboard.in\/ssc-selection-post\/?ref=ContTM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Take your Mock test here<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Types and <\/strong><strong>Rules of Conjunctions<\/strong><strong>:<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>1. Coordinating conjunctions:-<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Coordinating conjunctions join words or phrases of equal importance or grammatical rank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Rule of conjunction<\/strong>&#8211; When a coordinating conjunction is used to join two independent phrases, a &#8216;comma&#8217; is used to make the sentence clearer.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For, but, and, or, yet, so, nor are examples of coordinating conjunctions.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let us understand the <strong>rules of conjunction<\/strong> with the help of the examples given below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>We were in a hurry, <em>so<\/em> we took the shortcut to the station.<\/li><li>I didn&#8217;t have enough money, <em>so<\/em> I decided to buy a small gift.<\/li><li>I like to play football, <em>yet<\/em> I cannot play because of a leg injury.<\/li><li>You can wear a white dress to the party, <em>but<\/em> it should be stylish.<\/li><li>You should have a good diet, <em>for<\/em> you are very weak.<\/li><li>Megha loves both orange<em> and<\/em> pineapple.<\/li><li>Either do exercise <em>or<\/em> do yoga for fitness.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2. Correlative conjunctions:&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>These are pairs of conjunction words that work together.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Rule of conjunction:<\/strong> The correlative conjunctions are used in two places in a sentence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Either or, neither nor, not only, but also, both and, whether or, are examples of correlative conjunctions.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let us understand this <strong>rule of conjunction<\/strong> with the help of examples:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><em>Not only<\/em> she is a liar, <em>but also<\/em> a clever girl.&nbsp;<\/li><li>Ram is <em>not only<\/em> a good dancer <em>but also<\/em> a good actor.<\/li><li>I have finished eating <em>both<\/em> pasta <em>and<\/em> noodles.<\/li><li><em>Both<\/em> Maths <em>and<\/em> Science are his strong subjects.<\/li><li>You can<em> neither<\/em> enter the main gate <em>nor<\/em> stand near it.<\/li><li>Ravi <em>neither<\/em> attends his class <em>nor<\/em> submits his homework.<\/li><li>You can <em>either<\/em> choose to play cricket <em>or<\/em> play football.<\/li><li><em>Either<\/em> give me a red <em>or<\/em> a black pen.<\/li><li>Shweta is confused, <em>whether<\/em> she should buy a cycle <em>or<\/em> a video game.<\/li><li><em>Whether<\/em> you agree with me <em>or<\/em> not, I will do it.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>3. Subordinate conjunctions:&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>These conjunctions are used to join an independent clause and a dependant clause.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Rule of conjunction<\/strong> \u2013 Subordinate conjunction is used as a part of the dependent phrase and if the dependent phrase comes first, use a comma after it and then write the independent phrase.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although, though, while, whereas, unless, until, provided that, whenever, etc., are some examples of subordinate conjunctions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let us understand the <strong>rule of conjunction<\/strong> with the help of examples:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>You can attend the cricket match, <em>provided that<\/em> you book your tickets in advance.<\/li><li><em>Provided that<\/em> there is no traffic, you can reach in five minutes.<\/li><li>Do not go in crowded places <em>unless<\/em> you are fully vaccinated.<\/li><li><em>Unless<\/em> I know the correct answer, I will not attempt it.<\/li><li>&nbsp;I will not let you play <em>until<\/em> you finish your homework.<\/li><li>Rita won&#8217;t dance <em>until<\/em> Rani sings a song.<\/li><li><em>&nbsp;Although<\/em> he&#8217;s a small kid, he plays chess very well.<\/li><li><em>Though<\/em> she tried her best, she could not win the game.<\/li><li><em>&nbsp;Whenever<\/em> I do not take an umbrella with me, it rains heavily.<\/li><li>You should wash your hands <em>whenever<\/em> you come from outside.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>4. Compound conjunctions:&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>These are groups of words used together as conjunctions to join two phrases and make a meaningful sentence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Rule of conjunction<\/strong>&#8211; The compound conjunctions are normally used in the middle of the sentences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;As well as, as soon as, as long as, in order to, as much as, are some examples of compound conjunctions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;Let us understand the <strong>rules of conjunctions<\/strong> in sentences with the help of examples:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>You can work at a low salary <em>as long as<\/em> you do not get your desired job.<\/li><li>Keep the windows shut <em>as long as<\/em> it&#8217;s raining.<\/li><li>Reena is excited <em>as well as<\/em> nervous about her interview.<\/li><li>She is beautiful <em>as well as<\/em> intelligent.<\/li><li>Please submit the report <em>as soon as<\/em> the directors approve it.<\/li><li><em>As soon as<\/em> I get the details, I will inform you.<\/li><li>&nbsp;You can take the alternate route <em>in order to<\/em> avoid the traffic.<\/li><li><em>In order to<\/em> become an expert in anything, you have to do regular practice.<\/li><li>He likes to watch cricket <em>as much as<\/em> he likes to play cricket.<\/li><li>I have given all information <em>as much as<\/em> I know.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Some other conjunction words and the <strong>rules of conjunctions<\/strong> are given below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>The gift will belong to <em>whoever<\/em> finds it first.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;Here, whoever is subordinate conjunction used to join the dependent clause &#8216;the gift will belong to (whom)&#8217; and the independent clause &#8216;finds it first&#8217;.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><em>No less than <\/em>half the students miss the class.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;Here, no less than is compound conjunction used to emphasise &#8216;at least&#8217; or that most students miss the class.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>The thief will fall into the trap, <em>however<\/em> clever he may be.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Here, &#8216;however&#8217; is a conjunctive adverb used to connect two independent clauses.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Submit correct details <em>otherwise<\/em>, your form will be rejected.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Here, &#8216;otherwise, is coordinating conjunction used to join two independent phrases and a comma is used to make the sentence clearer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>I would <em>rather<\/em> visit the zoo <em>than<\/em> go shopping on holiday.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Here, &#8216;rather than&#8217; is a correlative conjunction used to join two clauses to clarify the speaker&#8217;s intention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Use of conjunctions:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>To avoid the use of many short sentences.<\/li><li>To make sentences more clear.<\/li><li>For comparison in two things.<\/li><li>To emphasise an important thing or condition in a sentence.<\/li><li>To make complex sentences easy and clear.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">FAQ:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"schema-faq wp-block-yoast-faq-block\"><div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1642584028197\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">What is the rule of conjunction for using the conjunction word &#8216;so&#8217;?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">The conjunction word &#8216;so&#8217;
