○ Write compound/complex sentences○ Use the following coordinating conjunctions for

compound sentences: FANBOYS,○ And○ But○ For○ Nor○ Yet○ Or○ So

Grammar

Punctuate compound sentences with coordinating conjunctions correctly.Three patterns in writing use coordinating conjunctions. Add commas when required.Pattern 1 — Connecting two main clausesWhen you connect two main clauses with a coordinating conjunction, use a comma. The pattern looks like this:

main clause + , + coordinating conjunction + main clause.Here is an example:

My dog sleeps on the couch, but my cat sleeps on my bed.

Use the following subordinatE conjunctions for complex

sentences

afteralthoughasbecausebeforeeven ifeven thoughifin order that

onceprovided thatrather thansinceso thatthanthatthoughunless

untilwhenwheneverwherewhereaswhereverwhetherwhilewhy

Some sentences are complex. Such sentences have two clauses, one main [or independent] and one subordinate [or dependent].The essential ingredient in a complex sentence is the subordinate conjunction:

1. Louisa will wash the sink full of her dirty dishes once her roommate Shane cleans his stubble and globs of shaving cream from the bathroom sink.2. We looked on top of the refrigerator, where Jenny will often hide a bag of chocolate chip cookies.3. Because her teeth were chattering in fear, Lynda clenched her jaw muscle while waiting for her turn to audition.
