Conjunctions Notes

When expressions are joined by and, but or or, we often leave out repeated words or phrases of various kinds.

Examples:

My uncle looks fierce. He is a friendly man.
My uncle looks fierce but is a friendly man.

Jack is hungry. Jack wants to eat a sandwich.
Jack is hungry and wants to eat a sandwich.

Jack is hungry so he wants to eat a sandwich. [ pronoun 'he' must be stated, otherwise sentence will be marked wrong.
