  8. Coordinating Conjunctions • Special words that are used to link two words, phrases or sentences. • Mary and Peter went to Florida. • She stood up and left the room. • This movie was really long but I liked it. • She will call or she will write a letter. • I had a cold so I stayed home.

  9. FANBOYS • FOR • AND • NOR • BUT • OR • YET • SO

  10. And The conjunction AND is used to link two words, phrases or sentences that are to be taken together: • I love tea and chocolate. • She saw me and laughed. • Jorge and Lisa are moving to Chicago.

  11. But The conjunction BUT is used to introduce a contrast between the two things that are linked. Note: this cannot be used to link two nouns together. • She loves him but he is mean. • This book was very long but interesting.

  12. Or The conjunction OR is used to link things that are to be taken separately: • Do you want tea or coffee? • I will go to the party or I will read a book. • She asked Bill or John to the prom.

  13. Yet Similar to BUT, the conjunction YET is used to express a contrast in the relationship between one element and another. • She told my secret to everyone, yet I chose to be her friend. • Her date was a idiot, yet Sarah had a good time.

  14. So The conjunction SO is used to express a consequence or effect of one element on another. • They were in love, so they got married. • Carol was annoyed, so she left the party.

  15. For & Nor The words NOR and FOR can be conjunctions as well. • I do not like oysters, nor do I like calamari. (This means that I don’t like calamari either.) • She called him, for she wanted to apologize. (This means “because she wanted to apologize.”)
