Connectives • A connective is a word that is used to link one sentence to another or extend it. • “We do not yet know much about Jekyll himself, although we will find out more as the story progresses. We do, however, know more about Hyde.” • “Furthermore, the story is full of mystery”. • These are effective as it allows you to create more complex sentences and also allows you to emphasise your points even more.
