| Abstract | ||
| English has a set of words called conjunctions that enable us to gracefully transition from one part of a sentence to another part of the sentence. Some of the words in the set are inherently conjunctions and others are words that can function as conjunctions. - The mayor proposed a new regulatory ordinance, but the city council did not approve the measure. The conjunction in the sentence above 'but' means contrary. The conjunction facilitates the transition between independent clauses by conveying a sense that the meaning of the second clause is going to be different from the sense expressed in the first clause. - We will meet our humanitarian responsibilities during this financial crisis; however, some capital projects will be delayed. The word 'however' can function as an adverb or as a conjunction. 'however' means 'nevertheless' or 'yet'. | ||
