Ø    Karena dalam subordinating conjunction dependent clause (anak kalimat) tidak bisa berdiri sendiri, artinya bergantung pada kalimat pokok (main clause). Maka ada beberapa cara untuk untuk mengetahui ketergantungannya (modes of dependence):

   a.     Ketergantungan tambahan (apposiition) yang hanya dalam pengertian pengantar/perkenalan.        Example:
·    He made a promise that he would return soon.
·    I will go visiting you if I am better.

b.    Sebab/alasan
       Example:
•We can do nothing, as he refuses.
• He couldn't go, since he has studied hard.
• He will succeed, since he has studied hard.


c.     Akibat/pengaruh
       Example:
•He runs very fast, that he made himself tired.

d.    Maksud/tujuan
Example:
• We eat a lot of food, so we may be full now.
• He shouted at the top of his voice, in order that he might be heard
• We are doing sport, so we are healthy.


e.     Syarat
       Example:
• I will go out if she is fine.
• He will come out, unless he hears to the contrary.
• I will come, provided that I am well enough.


f.  Pernyataan mengalah/contrast
       Example:
• He worked hard, even though he was tired.
• She is an honest woman, although she is poor.
• She is an honest woman, though she is poor.

g.    Perbandingan  
       Example:
• She is as tall as I am.
• He is as cleverer as you
• He is clever than I am.
• The sea is deeper than the mountains is high.


h.     Taraf/cara. 
       Example:
· The businessman will prosper, accordingly as it judiciously managed.
· Men will reap, as they sow.


i. Waktu
       Example:
· go, as soon as he comes.
· You can sit down, while I stand.


Ø    Catatan khusus mengenai conjunction
1.   Satu Conjunction untuk dua clause.
2.   Kata kata sambung yang menyatakan mengalah (kalimat atau clause yang diikuti oleh conjunction selalu jadi dependent clause anak kalimat).
3.   Conjunction "however" bila sebagai coordinative conjunction 
       (a), berdiri sendiri dan lazimnya diletakkan ditengah kalimat. Akan tetapi bila "however” merupakan                         subordinating conjunction 
       (b), ia harus diletakkan diawal adverb atau adjective tertentu dan selalau diletakkan diawal kalimat
       Example:
      a.  Dalam coordinating conjunction. 
         Example
          I'd like to go, however, I haven't time.
          I'll offer to Tom, however, he may not want it.

       b. Dalam subordinating conjunction
       Example:
   -However hard to try to forget her, you'll never be able to do it.
   -However hot the sun, we must go.

4.     Bila "as" dipakai dalam pengertian konsensif atau kontras, ia selalu didahului oleh adverb, adjective, atau participle yang berfungsi sebagai complement untuk kata kerja yang mengikuti.      
       Example:           
          Hot as the sun is, we must go.
          Poor as he is, he is honest.



Ø   Conjunctive Adverbs adalah adverb yang berfungsi menghubungkan dua clause. 
Yang termasuk conjunctive adverbs adalah sebagai berikut:

· Nevertheless        : meskipun demikian, walaupun begitu
· Therefore              : oleh sebab itu, maka dari itu.
· Thus                      : dengan demikian, jadi
· Whereover            : tambahan lagi, lagi pula
· Hence                   : maka dari itu
· Otherwise            : kalau tidak
· However             : namun demikian
· Notwithstanding : meskipun
· Although           : meskipun
· Though             : meskipun


Example:
1.      There is a tar in this dress, thus I want my money back.
2.      It's raining; therefore, the club will cancel the picnic.
3.      He was out of health, therefore he could not go to school.
4.      The plane have therefore been diverted.
5.       Although they are poor, they are honest.
