The can't help but construction (with other forms of the verb, like cannot and could not ) is a little illogical: it comes from two other constructions, can't but (meaning "I can't do anything except"). So can't help but should mean "I can't keep myself from doing anything except," which is a kind of double negative.

In the sentence Bob and Dan are friends the conjunction and connects two nouns and in the sentence He will drive or fly , the conjunction or connects two verbs.

ENGLISH CONJUNCTIONS By Linda Bryson A BRIEF EXPLANATION OF CONJUNCTIONS LISTS: EXAMPLES: RESOURCES ... LINKS TO OTHER INTERESTING WEBSITES
A BRIEF EXPLANATION OF CONJUNCTIONS
A conjunction is a word that links words, phrases, or clauses. There are three types of conjunctions: coordinating conjunctions, correlative conjunctions, and subordinating conjunctions. Coordinating conjunctions may join single words, or they may join groups of words, but they must always join similar elements: e.g. subject+subject, verb phrase+verb phrase, sentence+sentence. When a coordinating conjunction is used to join elements, the element becomes a compound element. Correlative conjunctions also connect sentence elements of the same kind: however, unlike coordinating conjunctions, correlative conjunctions are always used in pairs. Subordinating conjunctions, the largest class of conjunctions, connect subordinate clauses to a main clause. These conjunctions are adverbs used as conjunctions. The following tables show examples of the various types of conjunctions and some sample sentences using the conjunctions. Since coordinating conjunctions and correlative conjunctions are closed sets of words, all are included in the list. Subordinating conjunctions are a larger class of words; therefore, only a few of the more common ones are included in this list.

Independent and Dependent Clauses (Definitions)
Brought to you by the Purdue University Online Writing Lab When you want to use commas and semicolons in sentences and when you are concerned about whether a sentence is or is not a fragment, a good way to start is to be able to recognize dependent and independent clauses. The definitions offered here will help you with this. This handout will:
Definitions Independent Clause (IC) An independent clause is a group of words that contains a subject and verb and expresses a complete thought. An independent clause is a sentence. Example Jim studied in the Sweet Shop for his chemistry quiz. (IC) Dependent Clause (DC) A dependent clause is a group of words that contains a subject and verb but does not express a complete thought. A dependent clause cannot be a sentence. Often a dependent clause is marked by a

Stop at each of these words to see whether there is an independent clause (a complete sentence), on both sides of it. (For more help, see our handout on independent clauses 3. If so, place a comma before the coordinating conjunction. Examples She wanted to buy a new car, but she didn't have enough money to do so.

Objective(s) By the end of this lesson the student will be able to:

1. define the term 'conjunction'
2. differentiate between coordinating conjunctions and subordinating conjunctions Pre-Class Assignment: Resources/Equipment/Time Required: Outline:
The conjunction is the seventh of the eight parts of speech. Just for the record, here are all eight: noun, pronoun, adjective, verb, adverb, preposition, conjunction, and interjection. Let's start with a basic definition: Conjunctions are words that join words or groups of words.
There are two main types of conjunctions. They are coordinating conjunctions and subordinating conjunctions. Coordinating conjunctions include: . These conjunctions connect words, phrases, and clauses of equal value. Clauses of equal value are called independent clauses and can stand on their own as separate sentences. Example: John is running in this race and I am carrying his water bottle. (Each clause can stand alone: John is running in this race. I am carrying his water bottle.) Subordinating conjunctions introduce dependent clauses. Dependent clauses cannot stand alone as a single sentence. In fact, the clause is dependent on the rest of the sentence for its meaning. Example: Since I will not be home, Tina will answer the phone. ("Since I will not be home" doesn't make sense by itself. It is dependent on the rest of the sentence for its meaning.)

DAILY GRAMMAR - - - - by Mr. Johanson
Lessons 76-80 Lesson 76 - Conjunctions
A conjunction is a word that joins other words, phrases (groups of words), or clauses (groups of words with a subject and verb). Co-ordinate conjunctions join words, phrases, or clauses of equal rank. There are two kinds: simple and correlative. Subordinate conjunctions join dependent clauses to independent clauses. I will refer to them simply as co-ordinate, correlative, and subordinate. The co-ordinate conjunctions are the following: and, but, or, nor, for, and yet. For and yet can only join clauses.) The correlative conjunctions are always in pairs. They are either-or, neither-nor, both-and, not only-but also, and whether-or Some common subordinate conjunctions are after, although, as, as if, because, before, if, since, so that, than, unless, until, when, where, while The co-ordinate and correlative conjunctions should be memorized since they are common and few in number. Find the co-ordinate conjunctions which are joining words in the following sentences and the words that are joined.

What are conjunctions?
Conjunctions join sentence elements such as words, phrases, or clauses. There are three types of conjunctions: coordinating correlative , and subordinating Coordinating Conjunctions
  • Coordinating conjunctions join sentence parts of equal grammatical status. They are: and for or yet but nor so
    Nor for , and so can only join independent clauses. Examples: Do you want to study math or English? The coordinating conjunction "or" is linking two nouns. Do you want to go to the park or to the zoo. The conjunction "or" is linking the phrase "to the park" with the phrase "to the zoo." He gave me his phone number but I lost it. The conjunction "but" is connecting two clauses of equal status: the two facts are equally true and neither is made dependent on the other.
  • Coordinating words that work in pairs are called correlative conjunctions . They join words, phrases, and clauses, as well as whole sentences. The most common correlative conjunctions are: both ... and neither ... nor either ... or not only ... but also Examples: We can study
