Subordinating conjunctions.
Another kind of conjunction is called a subordinating conjunction. Here are some examples of sentences with subordinating conjunctions. The subordinating conjunctions are underlined.
1. She continued arguing until everyone ¢nally agreed with her.
2. They live down southwhen theweather gets cold.
3. Jackwill buy a house once he gets a job.
4. She listened to his comments politely, even though they sounded silly.
5. They stopped talking when itwasEleanor’s turn.

Subordinating conjunctions connect sentences; however, the two parts that are connected are not of equal value in terms of the meaning of the whole sentence. There is a main sentence with a subpart; the subordinating conjunction connects the subpart to themain sentence. Here are sentences 1 through 5 again, but this timewith themain sentences in bold.
