[Footnote: Some of the co-ordinate conjunctions, as _and_ and _but_,
connect, in thought, sentences separated by the period, and even connect
paragraphs. In analysis and parsing, we regard only the individual sentence
and treat such connectives as introductory.]
+_Co-ordinate Conjunctions_ are such as connect words, phrases, or clauses
of the same rank+.
+_Subordinate Conjunctions_ are such as connect clauses of different rank+.
+Remark+.--Some of the connectives below are conjunctions proper; some are
relative pronouns; and some are adverbs or adverb phrases, which, in
addition to their office as modifiers, may, in the absence of the
conjunction, take its office upon themselves and connect the clauses.
To THE TEACHER.--We do not advise the memorizing of these lists. The pupils
should he able to name the different groups, and some of the most common
connectives of each group.
+Co-ordinate Connectives.+ [Footnote: +Copulative+ conjunctions join parts
in the same line of thought; +Adversative+ conjunctions join parts
contrasted or opposed in meaning; +Alternative+ conjunctions join parts so
as to offer a choice or a denial. See Lesson 76.]
+Copulative+.--_And_, _both_ ... _and_, _as well as_ [Footnote: The _as
well as_ in, _He, as well as I, went_; and not that in, _He is as well as I
am_.
