LESSON 3 Conjunctions

● Conjunction is a word used to connect words, phrases, and sentences.

Types of Conjunctions:

- Coordinating Conjunctions join two or more words or groups of words.

Two sentences or independent clauses that are closely related in

meaning can be combined into a compound sentence. Let us remember

the acronym FANBOYS. (For, And, Nor, But, For, Or, Yet, So)

- Subordinating Conjunctions join independent clauses and dependent

clauses. The most common subordinating conjunctions are: after,

although, as, because, before, how, if, once, since, then, that, until,

when, where, whether, while.

*Note: Refer to the previous module for a review on this lesson.

● Aspect refers to the flow of time. Does the action take place in a single block of
time? Does the action occur continuously, or is the action a repetitive occurrence?

● Simple Past Tense is used to describe a completed activity that happened in the
past.

● Simple Present Tense expresses action that is going on now or habitually done.

● Simple Future Tense expresses action that will take place in the future.

● Present Perfect Tense shows an action that began in the past and continues in
the present or has ended at the present.

● Past Perfect Tense expresses an action that began and ended before another
past event. To form it, use the word had plus past participle.

● Future Perfect Tense indicates an action that will be finished at a particular future.
To form this tense, use will/shall plus have plus past participle.

● Modal is a type of verb that is used to indicate modality – that is: ability, permission,
request, capacity suggestions, order, obligation or advice. In English, the modal
verbs commonly used are can, could, may, might, must, will, would and shall.

● Conjunctions are words used to join clauses, phrases and words together for
constructing sentences.

● Coordinating Conjunctions are used to connect two words, phrases, or

independent clauses. When two independent clauses are joined, a compound
sentence is formed. An acronym for this is FANBOYS (For, And, Nor, But, Or and
Yet)

clause to form complex sentences.
