The subordinating conjunctions (French: les conjonctions de subordination) are used to introduce a subordinate clause. In French, they are : que - lorsque - puisque - comme - si - quand.
They are usually used alone, and it is usually better for clarity.
But they can be associated: c'est comme si j'y étais (it is as if I were there) - c'est comme quand tu étais petit (it is like when you were a child). This is still grammaticaly correct.
"Que" is an especially common word, with a widespread use and is frequently associated with other words (not subordinating conjuctions) helping to refine conditions (parce que : because, pendant que : while, de façon que / en sorte que : in such a way that...)
No, two subordinating conjunctions cannot be used together in French. Only one subordinating conjunction should be used to introduce a dependent clause.
Common conjunctions include coordinating conjunctions (and, but, or), subordinating conjunctions (because, although, while), and correlative conjunctions (either/or, neither/nor).
Words like 'and', 'but', and 'or' are called conjunctions. Conjunctions link together clauses and multiple ideas in a sentence. There are subordinating conjunctions and there are coordinating conjunctions. Subordinating conjunctions show the relationship between the dependent clause it is in and the other parts of the sentence; coordinating conjunctions join together two or more independent clauses, or phrases that can stand alone as they are.
All the subordinating conjunctions are: Because, if, that, since, who, what where, when, why, how, so, and then. Peace Out Homedog! :-)
Subordinating conjunctions are used to connect dependent clauses to independent clauses. Some common subordinating conjunctions include "because," "although," "while," and "if." The choice of subordinating conjunction depends on the relationship between the clauses being connected, such as cause and effect (using "because") or contrast (using "although").
The three types of conjunctions are coordinating conjunctions (e.g., and, but, or), subordinating conjunctions (e.g., because, although, if), and correlative conjunctions (e.g., either/or, neither/nor, both/and). They are used to connect words, phrases, or clauses in a sentence.
No, they are not adjectives. They are adverbs and can be used as subordinating conjunctions. They can also be question words, along with the pronouns who, whose, what, which, and why.
Some examples of conjunctions that are not coordinating conjunctions used to combine clauses in a compound sentence are "although," "because," "since," and "while." These are subordinating conjunctions that introduce dependent clauses and cannot connect independent clauses on their own.
Yes, it is. It is used to connect a dependent cause that relates either time (until something happens) or cause (until we throw the switch). *There are many subordinating clauses, but only 7 coordinating conjunctions, so you can remember them with the mnemonic FANBOYS (for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so) and all other single conjunctions are subordinating.
It is a subordinating conjunction, used to connect dependent clauses. The only 7 coordinating conjunctions are for-as-nor-but-or-yet-so, and correlative conjunctions (either-or) are in pairs.
Yes, they are. And they are three of the questions answered by adverbs. They can also be used as subordinating conjunctions, and much more rarely as nouns.
Common conjunctions include coordinating conjunctions (and, but, or), subordinating conjunctions (because, although, while), and correlative conjunctions (either/or, neither/nor).

No, "is" is not a subordinating conjunction. It is a form of the verb "to be" used in questions and statements. Subordinating conjunctions include words like "although," "because," and "while," which introduce dependent clauses in complex sentences.
A conjunction is a way to link two of the same parts of speech. It is notably used to combine smaller sentences (clauses) into one sentence. There are coordinating conjunctions (connect independent clauses) and subordinating conjunctions (connect subordinate or "dependent" clauses).
Coordinating conjunctions connect words, phrases, or clauses of equal importance in a sentence. Example: "and," "but," "or." Correlative conjunctions work in pairs to connect similar elements in a sentence. Example: "both...and," "either...or," "neither...nor." Subordinating conjunctions introduce subordinate clauses, which cannot stand alone as complete sentences. Example: "although," "because," "if." These types of conjunctions help to add variety and complexity to sentence structure.
There are two basic types of conjunction: co-ordinating (for example 'and') and subordinating (for example 'although'). Co-ordinating conjunctions may be used in pairs to form a correlative conjunction (for example 'either'/'or').
