Conecctors are
connecting words or conjunctions having 3 types: Coordinating Connectors,
Subordinating Connectors (Cause connector, eg: because, because of) and
Correlative Connectors (Not only ... but also, either or ... neither nor, both
... And)
Coordinate
connectors
Said the connection
used to connect two similar grammatical constructs: word, phrase (phrase), or
clause (clause). The connected elements are usually grammatically parallel to
the structure. This hyphen is often used in compound sentence to connect two
independent clauses.
Example:
1.
He did not come last night, for he fell
asleep.
(He
did not come last night, because he fell asleep.)
2.
She did not answer my call, nor did her
friends when I called them last night.
(He
did not answer my phone, nor his friends when I called last night.)
3.
The trainees laughed and cried simultaneously.
(The
exercise students laugh and cry simultaneously.)
Subordinate
connectors
Words that initiate a
subordinate clause (an adverbial clause) that serves to build an idea
relationship between the subordinate clause and the main clause. The
combination of dependent and the main clause produces complex sentence.
Example:
1.
I called you because I needed you
(I
call you because I need you)
2.
She
failed the test because she was lazy.
(He
failed because he was lazy)
3.
I like doing execise whereas my brother
like sleeping.
(I
love to exercise while my brother likes to sleep.)
Correlative
Connectors
The words used in pairs
to show the relationship between two words, phrase (phrase), or clause
(clause). The conjugated elements of the sentence are usually parallel to the
holder parallel to the grammatical structure. This said connection is also
called paired connectors.
Example:
1.
Yuni is not his girl friend but his
cousin.
(Yuni
is not her boyfriend but her cousin.)
2.
He can drive not only a car but also a
helicopter.
(He
can not only drive a car but also a helicopter.)
3.
The man is neither handsome nor
faithful.
(The
man is neither handsome nor faithful.)
4.
Either Nisa or her mother is a
scientist.
(Either

5.
