Сполучники or conjunctions are small words that connect words, phrases, and clauses into sentences (and, but, or, because, etc.). Remembering an array of them can be challenging for learners; on the other hand, mastering them makes you speak and write like a pro!

There are two types of Ukrainian conjunctions:

  • Coordinating conjunctions connect similar parts of a sentence, like words or phrases, and are used in compound sentences.
  • Subordinating conjunctions link different parts of a sentence and are used in complex sentences.
