Joining Words with 'And'
Join words and clauses using the conjunction 'and' to create longer sentences
What a learner can do afterwards
- Combine two simple sentences using 'and' (e.g. 'I like cats and dogs')
- Join two related clauses with 'and' (e.g. 'We went to the park and we played')
- Use 'and' in lists of items within a sentence
The lesson
You can join two short sentences with the word and. It makes one longer sentence from two short ones.
