* Types of Conjunctions: Conjunctions fall into different categories:
* Coordinating Conjunctions (FANBOYS): For, And, Nor, But, Or, Yet, So. These are the most common and easily memorized.
* Subordinating Conjunctions: These introduce dependent clauses and show their relationship to the main clause. Examples: because, although, since, while, if, unless, until, etc. There are many of these!
* Correlative Conjunctions: These come in pairs. Examples: both...and, either...or, neither...nor, not only...but also, etc.
* New Words and Usage: English is a living language. New words are constantly being created, and the usage of words can change over time. A word that wasn't previously considered a conjunction could become one.
Instead of focusing on a specific number, it's more important to understand how conjunctions work and to recognize them in different contexts.
