Conjunctions & Compound Sentences

This lesson is coming soon.

What you’ll learn:

• Coordinating conjunctions (don’t change word order): und (and), aber (but), oder (or), denn (because/for)
• Subordinating conjunctions (verb goes to the end): weil (because), dass (that), wenn (if/when), obwohl (although), als (when — past), ob (whether)
• Why word order changes: subordinating conjunctions push the verb to the end of the clause
• The most common patterns you’ll use in daily speech
• Comparison: “denn” vs. “weil” — both mean “because” but behave differently
• Two-part conjunctions: entweder…oder (either…or), sowohl…als auch (both…and)
