Today we had another double bel class.On the afternoon,we had another quiz.the format is same like mid term test.

On the night class Ezuan's group present about conjunction and adjectives.

CONJUNCTION

a conjunction a part of speech that connects two words, sentences, phrases or clauses together.


example of conjunction:

• For presents a reason (He is gambling with his health, for he has been smoking far too long.). 
• And presents non-contrasting item(s) or idea(s) (They gamble, and they smoke.). 
• Nor presents a non-contrasting negative idea ("They do not gamble, nor do they smoke."). 
• But presents a contrast or exception ("They gamble, but they don't smoke."). 
• Or presents an alternative item or idea ("Every day, they gamble or they smoke."). 
• Yet presents a contrast or exception ("They gamble, yet they don't smoke."). 
• So presents a consequence ("He gambled well last night, so he smoked a cigar to celebrate."). 

correlative conjunctions work in pairs to join words and groups of words of equal weight in a sentence. There are six different pairs of correlative conjunctions:


1) either...or
2) not only...but also
3) neither...nor
4) both...and
5) whether...or
6) just as...so
Examples:
You either do your work or prepare for a trip to the office.
Not only is he handsome, but he is also brilliant.
Neither the basketball team nor the football team is doing well.
Both the cross country team and the swimming team are doing well.
Whether you stay or go is your decision.
Just as many Americans love football, so many Canadians love ice hockey


Adjectives are words that describe or modify another person or thing in the sentence
example:

the tall professor
the lugubrious lieutenant
a solid commitment
a six-year-old child
the unhappiest, richest man
