Conjunction
FANBOYS:
We can remember the most common conjunctions with the mnemonic
- For
- And
- Nor
- But
- Or
- Yet
- So
Conjunctions usually connect two phrases, so we normally find them in the middle of the sentence.
However, we can sometimes start a sentence with a conjunction.
“For you, this bottleneck issue should be easier to solve.” “For me, it was too complicated.”
People often do this in conversation. After a pause, they continue, adding more information.
“I wasn’t able to resolve the timeouts issue…. So, anyway, the problem continues to be disruptive.”
In informal conversation, it doesn’t always sound like a new sentence…..Nor do people pay much attention….Or really care one way or another.
