Asked by Stephen

Is the word "and" still considered a coordinating conjunction if it is being used in a list rather than to connect two independent clauses? For example: "Jeff wants to buy an apple, a pear, and a banana"

Is the "and" used in that sentence still a coordinating conjunction?
Answered by Ms. Sue
Yes. A coordinating conjunction also connects words.
