Conjunctions Join Things

Conjunctions Conjunctions are connecting words Example: And adds things together in the sentence I like baseball and soccer. Or also joins, but makes an option What do you like best, dogs or cats? Or can also pose a question.

Using And/Or Sentence 1: I am going to play. Sentence 2: I am going to study. Using And to join: I am going to play, and Im going to study. Using Or to join: I am going to play, or Im going to study.

Using a Comma Before every joining word, a comma (,) must be used Example: I like soup, and I like sandwiches. You also must check that a and/or can be used by taking out the, and/, or and replacing it with a period.

Different Conjunctions Conjunctions arent only and/or, they are: So, because, but, then, after,also just a (,), etc.
