Conjunctions

Ideas are connected in a great variety of ways.  Conjunctions are connecting words that join ideas (words, clauses, sentences, and paragraphs) together.  The way the ideeas are connected depends on the meaning of the conjunction.  Some conjunctions add ideas together ('and'), some contrast ideas ('or', 'but') some show a logical relationship between ideas ('because', 'therefore').

Conjunctions:
Words that connect ideas in various relationships.

The conjunctions are highlighted in the following sentences.

Then Jim threw John the ball.

The ball went over his head and broke Mrs. Smith’s stained glass window 

Therefore, everyone playing baseball ran away.

Hint: Conjunctions are extremely important to understand larger units of thought and will be discussed in depth when we talk about how propositions are related.
