-----SYNCHRONOUS PERIOD-----
*Guide Question:
1. After you arranged and linked the sentences into a paragraph,
can you now clearly get the thought?
The words or expressions that are used to join two ideas or two parts of
a sentence or two different sentences or a number of sentences in a paragraph
thematically and meaningfully are called COHESIVE DEVICES. They are
otherwise known as connectives or linking words in English Grammar.
c. Development
1. Coordinating Conjunctions
Allow you to join words, phrases, and clauses of equal
grammatical rank in a sentence. The most common
coordinating conjunctions are for, and, nor, but, or, yet, and
so; you can remember them by using the mnemonic device
FANBOYS.
2. Correlative Conjunctions
Pairs of conjunctions that work together. Some examples are
either/or, neither/nor, and not only/but also.
3. Subordinating Conjunctions
Join independent and dependent clauses. A subordinating
conjunction can signal a cause-and-effect relationship, a
contrast, or some other kind of relationship between the
clauses. Common subordinating conjunctions are because,
since, as, although, though, while, and whereas. Sometimes
an adverb, such as until, after, or before can function as a
conjunction.
