A subordinate conjunction introduces the dependent (subordinate) clause in a complex sentence. Some common subordinate conjunctions are because, after, before, and unless. (See related link below for a complete list.)

Examples of complex sentences:

Mary will not be working this week because she has the flu.

Unless you clean your room, you will not be going to the movies.
