  • since
  • so that
  • than
  • though
  • unless
  • until
  • when
  • whenever
  • where
  • whereas
  • wherever
  • while
  • Some commonly used subordinating conjunctions for negative senses are:

    1. Unless - e.g. Unless you study, you will fail the exam.
    2. Although - e.g. Although it was raining, we still went for a walk.
    3. While - e.g. While he was sleeping, the dog barked loudly.
    4. Whereas - e.g. She loves pizza, whereas I prefer pasta.
    5. Though - e.g. Though he tried his best, he still didn't pass the test.
    6. Even if - e.g. Even if you try hard, you may not succeed.
    7. In case - e.g. In case it rains, we will bring umbrellas.
    8. Until - e.g. We can't leave until the storm stops.
    9. Without - e.g. Without practice, you won't improve your skills.
    10. Whether or not - e.g. Whether or not you come, the party will go on.
    11. Some commonly used subordinating conjunctions in positive sense include:

      1. Because
      2. Since
      3. As
      4. While
      5. Although
      6. Even though
      7. Whereas
      8. Provided that
      9. As long as
      10. In order that

      These conjunctions are used to introduce a dependent clause that provides additional information in support of the main clause.

    12. Both "while" and "although" can be used in both positive and negative sentences.

      For example:

      Positive:

      • While I was studying, I listened to music.
      • Although it was hot outside, we still had a great time at the beach.

      Negative:

      • While I wasn't feeling well, I still went to work.
      • Although she didn't have any experience, she was able to learn quickly.

      So, whether a subordinating conjunction is used in a positive or negative sentence depends on the specific context and the meaning that the speaker or writer wants to convey.

    13. The word "because" is a subordinating conjunction used to connect a dependent clause to an independent clause. The dependent clause usually explains the reason or cause for the action or event in the independent clause.

      Some examples of correct usage of "because" are:

      • I didn't go to the gym today because I was feeling sick.
      • She got the job because she had the most experience.
      • We had to cancel the picnic because of the rain.
      • He was late for the meeting because his car broke down.

      In all of these examples, the word "because" is used to connect the reason or cause (dependent clause) to the action or event (independent clause).
