Conjunctions

• Conjunctions refer to the words which help in joining two or more sentences.

• 'Neither nor' is a conjunction phrase that is used together. It is used to indicate the negation of both the subjects mentioned in the sentence.

• Only option 1 shows the correct conjunction phrase.

• The other sentences have or, and, and but, which are not compatible with 'neither.'
