What is conjunction in tagalog?

The direct translation of "conjunction" in Tagalog is pang-ugnay.

However, "pang-ugnay" is a general term that encompasses both conjunctions and prepositions. To be more specific, here are some Tagalog terms for different types of conjunctions:

* Pang-ugnay na panunuran (Coordinating conjunctions): These connect words or phrases of equal grammatical rank. Examples include:

* at (and)

* pero (but)

* kaya (so)

* o (or)

* ni (nor)

* pati (also, too)

* subalit (however)

* ngunit (but)

* Pang-ugnay na pang-uring (Subordinating conjunctions): These connect clauses where one clause depends on the other. Examples include:

* dahil (because)

* kung (if)

* habang (while)

* hanggang (until)

* kapag (when)

* bagaman (although)

* upang (in order to)

* Pang-ugnay na panghalip (Conjunctive adverbs): These connect clauses and indicate a relationship between them. Examples include:

* samakatuwid (therefore)

* gayunpaman (however)

* bilang karagdagan (in addition)

* sa kabilang banda (on the other hand)

The best translation will depend on the specific context and the type of conjunction you are looking for.
