對等連接詞(Coordinating Conjunctions)
對等連接詞是用來連接句子中的字、片語或子句。這種連接詞所連接的兩端必須是對等的；「字」和「字」、「片語」和「片語」、「子句」和「子句」。對等連接詞就只有下面這七個字：
對等連接詞範例| and | but | or | nor | for | so | yet |
He likes tea and coffee.
他喜歡茶和咖啡。
Our team played hard but lost the game.
我們的團隊非常賣力，但輸掉了比賽。
A good haircut and an easy smile will get you through just about anything in your life.
頭髮整齊和面帶笑容將會讓你撐過幾乎所有生活中的事情。
請將正確答案拖放到適當的空格內，再按Solve鈕看結果。
- Edward is and courageous.
- She is and a loyal friend.
- Betty lived life and completely.
a loving mother
fully
kind
對等連接詞連接兩個獨立子句而形成合句：
當兩個獨立子句被對等連接詞所連結時，前面的獨立子句後面通常跟著逗點(,)，然後對等連接詞，然後另一個獨立子句。
對等連接詞使用說明| and | 和、而 | 連接前後類似的語義 |
| | I took a taxi , and she walked home.
我叫了一輛計程車，而她走路回家。 |
| but | 但是 | 連接前後相反的語義 |
| | Our team played hard, but we lost the game.
我們的團隊非常賣力，但我們卻輸掉了比賽。 |
| or | 或 | 二選一 |
| | We can go to a restaurant tonight, or we can just eat leftovers.
今晚我們可以去餐館，或我們可以只吃剩飯。 |
| 否則 | 帶有警告意謂 |
| | Be here on time, or we'll leave without you.
你務必準時到來，否則我們將不等你而離去。 |
| nor | 亦不 | 配合前面否定的語義 |

(= I like pork and she likes beef. )
- Nancy 已經盡最大力了，但是標準實在是太高。
- Nancy tried her hardest but, the bar was too high.

連接詞起頭的單句
一般而言，應該盡量避免由連接詞起頭的單句。例如：
I studied for the college entrance examination. But I didn't study enough.
I studied for the college entrance examination, but I didn't study enough.
有些特殊情形，單句是可以由連接詞起頭。例如下面兩句由連接詞起頭的句子，具有強調的效果，很多作家還特別鼓勵這樣使用。
Jenny thought that the big earthquake was coming. And she was right.
珍妮認為大地震即將到來。不錯，她是對的。
She had not planned to attend the wedding. Yet she did.
她本來不打算去參加婚禮。然而，她去了。
請記住，像 Because, While, Until,...等這一類的從屬連接詞就不能作為單句的起頭。
We can't go to Laura's party. Because we're going away that weekend.(錯誤的句子）
We can't go to Laura's party because we're going away that weekend. (正確的句子）
我們不能去參加羅菈的聚會，因為那個週末我們要出遠門。
除了上述七個對等連接詞用來連接兩個獨立子句外，另有一些副詞連接詞(Adverbial Conjunctions) 也具有類似的功能。
