SUBORDINATING CONJUNCTION

Definition: A subordinating conjunction is a word which joins together a dependent clause and an independent clause. Subordinating conjunctions are used to join two sentences when one of them is depending on the first one. Some of these subordinating conjunctions are:

that (que)

although, though (aunque)

because of (debido a)

while (en tanto que)

since (ya que, puesto que)

until (hasta que)

as (pues, como)

as if, as though (como si)

so that (a fin de que)

when (cuando)

lest (para que no)

why (por que)

if (si) in order that (para)

unless (a menos que)

although, even though (si bien)

Examples in Spanish:

This is the restaurant that I told you about
Este es el restaurante del que te hablé

In this example, the subordinating conjunction "que" introduces the sentence "del que te
hablé" which is dependent on the first sentence "este es el restaurante"
