53. So a conjunction may be used to connect phrases as well as words.
Now notice the following sentences:
He will speak. I will listen.
He will speak, and I will listen.
He will speak, but I will listen.
He will speak, if I will listen.
He will speak, therefore I will listen.
He will speak, because I will listen.
He will speak, until I will listen.
54. These sentences are joined by different conjunctions, and the conjunction used alters the meaning of the sentence.
The conjunction is a very useful part of speech. Without it we would have many disconnected sentences requiring tiresome repetition of the same words. Like prepositions, there are not many conjunctions in English and they are readily recognized.
55. We will study about these conjunctions at length in later lessons. If you consult the following list of those most commonly used, you can easily pick out the conjunctions in your reading:
and
as
as if
after
although
as soon as
because
besides
before
but
either
for
hence
in order that
lest
neither
nor
or
since
still
so
then
though
that
than
therefore
till
until
unless
while
whether
yet
The seven classes of words which we have studied make up all of our sentences. The hundreds of words which we use in forming our sentences and expressing our thoughts belong to these seven classes. They are either nouns, pronouns, verbs, adverbs, adjectives, prepositions or conjunctions.
Exercise 5
Underscore the conjunctions in the following sentences. Notice whether they connect words or phrases or sentences.
