Subordinating conjunctions introduce adverb clauses.
Subordinating conjunctions introduce dependent clauses and join them to independent clauses to form complex sentences. They show the relationship between the dependent clause and the independent clause, such as cause and effect, or time sequence. Examples include "although," "because," "when," and "while."
Three subordinating conjunctions are 'after,' 'when,' and 'even though.' For a list of common subordinating conjunctions, visit this site: http://englishplus.com/grammar/00000377.htm
All the subordinating conjunctions are: Because, if, that, since, who, what where, when, why, how, so, and then. Peace Out Homedog! :-)
Some common subordinating conjunctions include "because," "although," "since," "while," "after," and "if." These words are used to introduce dependent clauses in complex sentences that provide additional information or context to the main clause.
coordinating; subordinating;; correlative!
Coordinating conjunctions (for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so) connect independent clauses, where each could stand alone as a sentence. Subordinating conjunctions begin a dependent clause that modifies an independent clause.
AAAWWUBBIS is an acronym for subordinate conjunctions.
