Conjunctions

Conjunctions are used to connect words or phrases. The most common conjunctions are and, or and but. Each has its own context for proper usage:Interlink Language Centers - Parts of Speech: Conjunctions

• and is used to join or add words together in the sentence, ex: They ate and drank.
• or is used to show choice or possibilities as in the sentence, ex: He will be here on Monday or Tuesday.
• but is used to show opposite or conflicting ideas as in the sentence, ex: She is small but strong.

Starting a sentence with a conjunction should be avoided. In addition, the word but may create an unintended reaction by the reader; it may imply an action where none is present. Avoid using but where the two ideas being connected are not conflicting. If and can be substituted in place of but without changing the meaning, then and is preferred. For example, "He taught history but was fired in 2007." is preferred as "He taught history and was fired in 2007." Sometimes it is better to avoid the conjunction altogether and simply create two independent sentences. This is especially true of long sentences with several dependent clauses.
