Question

What type of clauses are coordinating conjunctions associated with?
Main clause
Subordinate clause

Answer 1

Coordinating conjunctions are associated with **main clauses**. They connect two or more main clauses (independent clauses) of equal importance, allowing them to be joined together. Common coordinating conjunctions include "and," "but," "or," "nor," "for," "so," and "yet." They do not connect subordinate clauses, which are dependent on a main clause to make sense.
