의미: Joining two independent clauses with coordinating conjunctions

用并列连词连接两个独立分句

Unir dos cláusulas independientes con conjunciones coordinantes

等位接続詞で2つの独立節をつなぐ

등위 접속사로 두 개의 독립절을 연결하기

Compound sentences join two complete sentences using FANBOYS (for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so). Each clause must be able to stand alone. Use a comma before the conjunction when joining two independent clauses.

并列连词（and, but, or, so, yet）连接两个独立分句。连词前用逗号。每个分句都可以独立成句。用FANBOYS记忆：For, And, Nor, But, Or, Yet, So。

Las conjunciones coordinantes (and, but, or, so, yet) unen dos cláusulas independientes. Usa coma antes de la conjunción. Cada cláusula puede ser oración independiente. Usa FANBOYS para recordar: For, And, Nor, But, Or, Yet, So.

等位接続詞（and, but, or, so, yet）は2つの独立節をつなぎます。接続詞の前にコンマを使います。各節は独立した文になれます。FANBOYSで覚えましょう：For, And, Nor, But, Or, Yet, So。

중문은 FANBOYS(for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so)를 사용하여 두 개의 완전한 문장을 연결합니다. 각 절은 독립적으로 성립해야 합니다. 두 개의 독립절을 연결할 때 접속사 앞에 쉼표를 사용합니다.
