- >> Conjunction Junction, what's your function?
- Hooking up words and phrases and clauses.
- >> Conjunction Junction, how's that function?
- I got three favorite cars
- That get most of my job done.
- >> Conjunction Junction, what's their function?
- I got "and", "but", and "or",
- They'll get you pretty far.
- "And":
- That's an additive, like "this and that".
- "But":
- That's sort of the opposite,
- "Not this *but* that".
- And then there's "or":
- O-R, when you have a choice like
- "This or that".
- "And", "but", and "or",
- Get you pretty far.
- >> Conjunction Junction, what's your function?
- Hooking up two boxcars and making 'em run right.
- Milk and honey, bread and butter, peas and rice.
- >> Hey that's nice!
- Dirty but happy, digging and scratching,
- Losing your shoe and a button or two.
- He's poor but honest, sad but true,
- Boo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!
- >> Conjunction Junction, what's your function?
- Hooking up two cars to one
- When you say something like this choice:
- "Either now or later"
- Or no choice:
- "Neither now nor ever"
- >> Hey that's clever!
- Eat this or that, grow thin or fat,
- Never mind, I wouldn't do that,
- I'm fat enough now!
- >> Conjunction Junction, what's your function?
- Hooking up phrases and clauses that balance, like:
- Out of the frying pan and into the fire.
- He cut loose the sandbags,
- But the balloon wouldn't go any higher.
- Let's go up to the mountains,
- Or down to the sea.
- You should always say "thank you",
- Or at least say "please".
- >> Conjunction Junction, what's your function?
- Hooking up words and phrases and clauses
- In complex sentences like:
- <"In the mornings, when I am usually wide awake,
- I love to take a walk through the gardens and down by the lake,
- Where I often see a duck and a drake,
- And I wonder as I walk by
- Just what they'd say if they could speak,
- Although I know that's an absurd thought.">
- Where I often see a duck and a drake,
- >> Conjunction Junction, what's your function?
- Hooking up cars and making 'em function.
- >> Conjunction Junction, how's that function?
- I like tying up words and phrases and clauses.
- >> Conjunction Junction, watch that function.
- I'm going to get you there if you're very careful.
- >> Conjunction Junction, what's your function?
- I'm going to get you there if you're very careful.
- >> Conjunction Junction, what's your function?
- I'm going to get you there if you're very careful.
- Hooking up words and phrases and clauses.
