Lesson 10: Basic Conjunctions ("and", "but")
Welcome to our lesson on Basic Conjunctions! When English learners speak, they often communicate in short, isolated sentences. To tell longer stories, you need a way to connect your ideas without stopping. Today, we are learning 'conjunctions'—the sticky tape of English! We will look at how words like and , but , or , because , and so help you build better, more natural sentences about your daily life. Vocabulary List: And (Conjunction) - Used to connect similar ideas or add information. But (Conjunction) - Used to show contrast or difference. Or (Conjunction) - Used to show a choice or alternative. Because (Conjunction) - Used to give a reason. So (Conjunction) - Used to show a result. Common Mistake: Comma Rules When you use "but" or "so" to connect two complete thoughts (sentences that can stand alone), you must put a comma before the conjunction. For example: "I was tired, but I went to the market." Please enable JavaScript to view the interactive flashcard…
