How do you join them together?
FANBOYS – 7 coordinating conjunctions used for compound
sentences
FANBOYS – for and not but or yet so
FANBOYS for and
nor but or yet so mnemonic
, FANBOYS not realistic, not authentic English
In compound sentences: for nor yet rarely used in
compound sentences by English speakers
taught in grammar books, but not often used
-for Maria is going
to carry her umbrella, for it is going to rain. VERY UNUSUAL, sounds like a
grammar book
MORE LIKELY: Maria is going to carry her umbrella because it
it going to rain. COMPLEX SENT, ADVERB CLAUSE- will learn next week
-nor Joan does not
like dogs, nor does she like cats. VERY
UNUSUAL, NOT AUTHENTIC ENGLISH, like a grammar book
MORE LIKELY: Joan does not like dogs or cats. SIMPLE
-yet It is
overcast/cloudy today, yet it is still warm. NOT AUTHENTIC, SOUNDS WEIRDLY
FORMAL
MORE LIKELY: It is overcast today, but it is still warm.
AUTHENTIC
‘yet’ Are you finished yet? NOT COMPOUND
These are the ones we use: so or but and
Forget about FANBOYS. Use SOBA. so or but
and Mnemonic
Let’s focus on SOBA.
