Definition Connectors
Sentence connectors are words
and phrases that connect sentences to help with understanding. Sentence connectors
are also known as linking language. This linking language can be used to order
what you have to say, show opposition, provide clarification and so on. In many
grammar books, you will find information about sentence connectors when reading
about subordinating conjunctions, coordinating conjunctions and so on.
Once
you have mastered the basics of correct usage in written English, you will want
to express yourself in increasingly complex ways. One of the best ways to
improve your writing style is to use sentence connectors. Sentence connectors
are used to express relationships between ideas and to combine sentences. The use
of these connectors will add sophistication to your writing style.
