CONJUNCTION

  • Conjunction acts as cohesive tie between clauses or sections of text in such a way as to demonstrate a meaningful pattern between them.
  • Conjunctions are not a way of simply joining sentences. Their role in the text is wider than that, because they provide the listener/reader with information for the interpretation of utterance; that is why some linguists prefer to describe them as discourse markers.

TYPES OF CONJUNCTION


Elaboration
    • Means one clause that expands another by elaborating on it (or some portion of it) by restating in other words, specifying in grater detail, commenting or exemplifying(Halliday, 1985:196)
    • i.e., in other words, that is, for example, by the way, anyway, or rather, and in short.

Extention
    • Means one clause expands another by extending beyond it by adding some new element, giving an exception to it or offering an alternative (Halliday, 1985:197)
    • i.e., and, moreover, nor, but, however, instead, alternatively, an or.

Enhancement
    • Means one clause expands another by embellishing around it by qualifying it with some circumstantial feature of time, place, cause or condition (Halliday, 1985:197)
    • i.e., finally, secondly, next, meanwhile, likewise, therefore, nevertheless, and in that respect.
