Sentence Structure

Compound sentences and coordinating conjunctions

소개

단문에서 한 발 더 나아가, 독립적인 절을 연결해서 복문(compound sentences)을 만드는 법을 배워요. 이렇게 하면 글이 더 자연스럽고 세련되어져요.

FANBOYS——for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so——이 7개의 등위접속사가 아이디어를 조합하는 도구예요. 각각 고유한 의미와 올바른 구두점 규칙이 있어요.

한국어는 "~고", "~지만", "~서" 같은 연결어미로 절을 이어붙이지만, 영어는 절과 절 사이에 접속사를 넣는 방식이에요. 이 구조에 익숙해지면 원어민다운 자연스러운 영어에 한 걸음 더 가까워져요.
