Note : The subordinating conjunctions are bolded.
Conjunctions are joining words. They join two words to form a meaningful sentence. For example, Reena and me are friends. Here 'and' is referred as conjunction. There are seven coordinating conjunctions in English, and you can remember them using the mnemonic device FANBOYS: for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so.
