German: Conjunctions
Here a just a few conjunctions for German. The coordinating list is complete but there are so many more for subordinating conjunctions but these are the mains ones which I have encountered in my lessons.
Coordinating:
[word order is unchanged; verb remains the second idea]
und – and aber – but oder – or denn – because sondern – but/but rather
Subordinating:
[send the verb to the end of the clause]
als - when (in the past) als ob - as if bevor - before bis - until da - as/since/because dass -that damit - so that/in order that ehe - before falls - in case indem - while je - the (e.g. 'the harder I work...') nachdem - after ob - if/whether obwohl - although obgleich -although obschon - although seit - since seitdem - since so dass - so that sobald -as soon as solange - as long as trotzdem despite the fact that während - while weil - because wenn - if/when wie - as, how
