Subordinating conjunction

A subordinating conjunction is a word that introduces a subordinate (or


dependent) clause and connects it to a main (or independent) clause.
Subordinating conjunctions help to show the relationship between the
two clauses, such as cause, time, condition, contrast, or place.

Here are some common subordinating conjunctions:

1. Cause/Reason: because, since, as

o Example: "She went home early because she was tired."

2. Time: when, while, before, after, as soon as

o Example: "I will call you when I arrive."

3. Condition: if, unless, provided that

o Example: "If it rains, we’ll stay indoors."

4. Contrast: although, though, even though, whereas

o Example: "Although it was cold, we went for a walk."

5. Place: where, wherever

o Example: "I will follow you wherever you go."

In each case, the subordinating conjunction helps to establish a specific


relationship between the clauses, making it clear how the information in
the subordinate clause relates to the information in the main clause.
