An Introduction to Sentence Connector
Sentence Connectors are a great way of improving your English. Why? Because we use them to express relationships between ideas and to combine sentences.
When we begin learning a language, we speak in very basic sentences, a bit like children.
Example: “London is a very exciting city. London is very expensive.”
As we learn more words and more complex sentence structure, we are able to start using sentence connectors to make more sophisticated sentences.
Example: “London is a very exciting city; nevertheless it is also very expensive” or
Despite the fact that London is very expensive, it is also very exciting”
There are various types of connectors. We can divide them into:
  1. Coordinating Conjunctions – They connect words, phrases and clauses. They are usually found in the middle of a sentence with a comma (,) just before the conjuction, or at the beginning of the sentence.
    Coordinating Conjunctions:
     for
     and
     nor
     but
     or
     yet
     so
(remember FANBOYS)
  1. Correlative Conjunctions – They connect equal sentence elements together (like two nouns) and are always composed by two words.
    Correlative Conjunctions:
bothand
not onlybut also
notbut
eitheror
neithernor
whetheror
asas
  1. Subordinating Conjunctions- They connect a dependent clause and an independent clause and establish a relationship between them. They happen at the beginning of a sentences (with a comma in the middle separating the clauses) or in the middle of a sentence with no comma.
    Subordinating Conjunctions:
after
if
though
although
if only
till
as
in order that
unless
as if
now that
until
as long as
once
when
as though
rather than
whenever
because
since
where
before
so that
whereas
even if
than
wherever
even though
that
that
while

  1. Linking Adverbs and Transition Words- They connect two independent clauses or sentences. They provide transition between ideas.
    Linking Adverbs and Transition Words:
accordingly
however
nonetheless
also
indeed
otherwise
besides
instead
similarly
consequently
likewise
still
conversely
meanwhile
subsequently
finally
moreover
then
furthermore
nevertheless
therefore
hence
next
thus
Within these 4 categories, we also find the following division:
  • Addition
  • Alternative
  • Cause-Effect
  • Comparison
  • Condition
  • Contrast
  • Emphasis
  • Place
  • Time
We will explain each of these 4 types of sentence connectors in depth with examples over the next couple of days. They will teach you how to introduce, order, contrast, sequence and connect ideas within a sentence.
Remember to start using them, it will greatly increase your conversation skills and you will feel more confident talking to a native speaker.
