In this course you will learn about subordinate connectives and what they are. This course is ideal for intermediate learners.

Introduction

The words subordinating, connectives and conjunctions meaning 

Subordinating: We know that the prefix ‘sub’ means ‘under’ like a submarine, ‘sub bass’ or substitute.

If an army officer has ‘subordinates’, these are the soldiers of a lower rank who work for, or under, him or her.  Subordinates depend on his/her leadership.

Subordinate means dependent or less important.

Conjunction/Connectivess: Conjunctions and connectives mean the same thing.

Conjunctions and connectives are ‘joining’ words that can connect two halves of a sentence (clauses) together.

Examples are “and” and  “or”.
