=Conjunction.= A conjunction is a word used to _join together_
words, phrases, clauses, or sentences. A =coordinate conjunction=
connects elements of equal rank (See 36). =Correlative
conjunctions= are conjunctions used in pairs (See 31). A
=subordinate conjunction= is one that connects elements unequal
in rank (See 36). When a conjunction, in addition to its
function as a connective, indicates a relation of time, place,
or cause, it is often called a =conjunctive adverb= or =relative
adverb=.

=Interjection.= An interjection is a word _thrown into_ speech to
express emotion. It has no grammatical connection with other
words. (_Oh_, is that it? _Well_, I'll do it. _Hark!_)

=Other Grammatical Terms=

=Absolute expression.= An expression (usually composed of a
substantive and a participle, perhaps with modifiers) which,
though not formally and grammatically joined, is in thought
related to the remainder of the sentence. (_The relief party
having arrived_, we went home. _This disposed of_, the council
proceeded to other matters. _Defeated_, he was not dismayed.)

=Antecedent.= A substantive to which a pronoun or participle
refers. Literally, _antecedent_ means _that which goes
before_; but sometimes the antecedent follows the dependent
word. (The _man_ who hesitates is lost. Entering the store,
_we_ saw a barrel of apples.) _Man_ is the antecedent of the
pronoun _who_, and _we_ is the antecedent of the participle
_entering_.

=Auxiliary.= _Be_, _have_, _do_, _shall_, _will_, _ought_, _may_,
_can_, _must_, _might_, _could_, _would_, _should_, etc., when
used with participles and infinitives of other verbs, are
called auxiliary verbs.

=Case.= The relation of a substantive to other words in the
sentence as shown by inflectional form or position. The subject
of a verb, or the predicate of the verb _to be_, is in the
nominative case. The object of a verb or preposition, or the
"assumed subject" of an infinitive, is in the objective case. A
noun or pronoun which denotes possession is in the possessive
case.

=Clause.= A portion of a sentence which contains a subject and a
verb, perhaps with modifiers. The following sentence contains
one dependent (subordinate) and one independent (principal)
clause: _When the sto
