1. Klausa adalah gabungan beberapa kata yang memiliki subyek dan verba yang berfungsi
sebagai predikat. Terdapat dua jenis klausa, yaitu :
a. Klausa independent, adalah klausa yang dapat berdiri sendiri. pada dasarnya sebuah kalimat
dengan makna yang utuh.

b. Klausa dependen, adalah klausa yang tidak dapat berdiri sendiri. klausa yang tidak memiliki
makna yang utuh. Maknanya seperti menggantung, dan baru bisa memiliki makna utuh jika
digabungkan dengan klausa independent.
Contoh:
- When the rain fell. (kalimat ini memiiki makna menggantung, jika di gabungkan dengan
klausa independent akan memiliki makna yang utuh). Contoh: when the rain fell, Anie
baked a birthday cake this morning.
- Although it was raining heavily (kalimat ini memiiki makna menggantung, jika di
gabungkan dengan klausa independent akan memiliki makna yang utuh). Contoh:
Although it was raining heavily, Anie went to the market.

1. A clause is a combination of several words that have a subject and a verb that functions as a
predicate. There are two types of clauses, namely:

A. Independent clauses are clauses that can stand alone. basically a sentence with a complete
meaning.

Examples:

Anie made a birthday cake this morning.

Anie went to the market.

B. Dependent clauses are clauses that cannot stand alone. clauses that do not have a complete
meaning. The meaning is like hanging, and it can only have a complete meaning if it is combined with
an independent clause.

Examples:

- when it rains. (This sentence has a hanging meaning; if combined with an independent clause, it
will have a complete meaning.) Example: When it rained this morning, Anie made a birthday cake.

- Even though it was raining heavily, this sentence has a hanging meaning; if combined with an
independent clause, it will have a complete meaning. Example: Even though it was raining heavily,
Anie went to the market.

2. Coordinating conjunctions are connecting words that function to connect two words, phrases, or
clauses that have equal positions.

- For. Its function is to convey reasons

Example: Daniel felt dizzy. I haven't stepped in for two days.

- And. Its function is to convey additions or combinations.

Example: I eat and finish my homework during my lunch break.

- Nor. Its function is to convey negative things without conflict or contrast.

Example: Nor Anung or Aning loves outdoor sports.

- But. Its function is to convey things that are contradictory or contrasting.

Example: The twins are very naughty, but they never lie.

- Or. Its function is to convey choices or alternatives.

Example: Should we go or stay in the city?

- yet. Its function is to convey contrast.

Example: Your paper is excellent, yet there are some disturbing typos.

- So. Its function is to convey results or outcomes.

Example: I had class at 8 a.m. this morning, so I had to leave home at 6 a.m.
