Understanding Български Conjunctions
Conjunctions are words that help us connect other words, phrases, or sentences. They are like little bridges that make our sentences flow better and help us understand how ideas relate to each other.
Important Points
- Coordinating Conjunctions
- Subordinating Conjunctions
- Correlative Conjunctions
In Bulgarian, conjunctions can be grouped into three main types. Let's learn about each one and see some examples.
Coordinating Conjunctions
These conjunctions connect words or groups of words that are of equal importance. They are like equals holding hands.
Examples
- Аз обичам ябълки и банани.
- Той е умен но мързелив.
- Искаш ли чай или кафе?
Subordinating Conjunctions
These conjunctions connect a main part of a sentence with a less important part. They help us show that one idea depends on another.
Examples
- Ще играем навън, ако не вали.
- Отивам на училище, защото искам да уча.
- Тя се усмихна, когато видя приятеля си.
Important Points
- ако (if)
- защото (because)
- когато (when)
These are special pairs of conjunctions that work together. They make sure that two parts of a sentence are connected in a balanced way.
Examples
- И мама и татко са вкъщи.
- Нито той нито тя знаят отговора.
- Дали ще дойде или не, не е сигурно.
Important Points
- и...и (both...and)
- нито...нито (neither...nor)
- дали...или (whether...or)
Remember, using conjunctions helps our sentences become more interesting and clear. Practice using them to connect your ideas!
