A word that "joins"
Correct Answer
A. A word that "joins"Explanation
A conjunction is a type of word that is used to connect words, phrases, or clauses together. It acts as a "joiner" that brings different elements of a sentence together, allowing them to work together in a cohesive manner. Conjunctions are used to express relationships between words or ideas, such as adding information, showing contrast, or indicating cause and effect. They play a crucial role in creating smooth and coherent sentences by linking different parts and ensuring the flow of the text.Rate this question:

Correct Answer(s)
A. But
A. And
A. OrExplanation
The words "but," "and," and "or" are conjunctions because they are used to connect words, phrases, or clauses together. "But" is used to show contrast or contradiction, "and" is used to show addition or similarity, and "or" is used to show a choice or alternative. These words help to join ideas and create more complex sentences. The word "oh!" is not a conjunction; it is an interjection used to express surprise or emotion.Rate this question:

Which ones are Interjections?
-
Oh!
-
But
-
Or
Correct Answer
A. Oh!Explanation
Interjections are words or phrases that express strong emotions or sudden reactions. "Oh!" is an interjection because it is used to show surprise, excitement, or disbelief. It is a standalone word that does not require any additional words to convey its meaning. On the other hand, "but" and "or" are conjunctions that connect words, phrases, or clauses in a sentence. They do not express emotions or reactions, so they are not interjections.Rate this question:
