The so conjunction means something like therefore and for this reason. As with but, there is a contrast between the clauses, for example: I have known him for a long time, yet I have never understood him. It means something like but at the same time but nevertheless but in spite of this. We use the for conjunction (meaning something like because) to join two clauses when the second clause is the reason for the first clause, for example: He felt cold, for it was snowing. (Note the inversion of subject and auxiliary: did she.) for In this case both clauses are untrue or do not happen, for example: Mary never wrote the letter, nor did she call him. We use the nor conjunction to join two alternative clauses when the first clause uses a negative such as neither or never. We use the or conjunction to join two alternative clauses, for example: Will Mary go, or will John go? nor We use the but conjunction to introduce a clause that contrasts with the preceding clause, for example: Mary ran fast, but she couldn't catch John.

We use and to join two clauses when the second clause is a result of the first clause, for example: He went to bed early, and the next day he felt better.We use and to join two clauses when the second clause happens after the first clause, for example: There was a big bang and the lights went out.We use and to join two clauses that have equal value, for example: London is in England, and Rome is in Italy.The and conjunction is the most common conjunction. Note that a comma (,) must come before the coordinating conjunction except when the clauses are short (in which case the comma is optional). The most common of these coordinating conjunctions are and, but and or, in that order. The term coordinating conjunction sounds complicated, but in fact there are only seven of them and they are all short, one-syllable words: For- And- Nor- But- Or- Yet- So - remember them with the mnemonic FANBOYS. Usually, we join independent clauses with one of the seven coordinating conjunctions. Joining Compound Sentences with Coordinating Conjunctions → Mary went to work, but John went to the party, and I went home. A compound sentence does not contain any dependent clauses. So a compound sentence is like two or more simple sentences added together. We saw in sentence structure that a compound sentence is two (or more) independent clauses joined by a coordinating conjunction or semicolon.
