To
Link

Example

job.

will have to go.
4. Al1 of chocolate come from cocoa beans.
5. I knew it was going to be a bad day because I

Reason
because, since,
as, just in case,
Several words show causation: as,
because, since, for. They show a causal connection.
Since
mean “because
Since Reagan became president, the
Soviets have come to the bargaining table.
The word for acts as a coordinating conjunction to show a less direct
relationship.
“I went to the bar after the funeral.
For I needed a drink.”
Reason clauses are adverbial clauses
which state why something is the case.
Example
1. I didn't say anything because you'd have been
angry.
2. Because 1'11 be in tonight, I'll baby-sit.
3. Since you don't like pizza, let's buy fish
and chips.
4. As you've seen the film, let's go somewhere
else.
5. You try to fix it since you think you're so
clever!
For
For is used in very formal or
literary contexts only:
Example:

videoed.
She was stopped for speeding.
The things we do for love!
For some reason, she isn’t interested
in going out at all tonight.
Certain Chicago restaurants are
famous for their deep-dish pizza.
(Just)
in case
(Just) in case is used to talk about things
that may possibly happen:
Just in case adalah frasa bahasa
Inggris yang bermakna “in the event that (something happens)” (seandainya
sesuatu terjadi ~ untuk berjaga-jaga).
Example:
1. I’ll
take along an umbrella, just in case.(Saya akan membawa payung untuk
berjaga-jaga.)
2. Be
sure to bring a map and compass, just in case you’re not sure where you are.
3. (Pastikan

dirimu berada.)

5. (Selalu
back up berkas-berkasmu untuk berjaga-jaga seandainya perangkatmu dicuri atau
rusak.)
6. Don't
leave him alone in case something happens.
Time

will call you as soon as I get to New York.

RESULT
(SO, SUCH)
'so' and 'such' means 'very' or
'really'. It makes the sentence stronger and shows that there is a high level
of something.
We
use 'so' before an adjective or adverb (without a noun).
She
was so beautiful (= she was very
beautiful).
He
ran so quickly (= he ran very
quickly).
The
children spoke French so well (= the
children spoke French very well).
We
use 'such' before a noun or an adjective + a noun.
If
there is 'a' or 'an', it goes after 'such'.
She
was such a beautiful woman (= she was a very beautiful woman).
NOT:
'she was a so beautiful woman'.
NOT:
'she was a such beautiful woman'.
He
got such a good time in the race (= he got a very good time in the race).
It
was such delicious food (= it was really delicious food).
The
children spoke such good French (= the children spoke really good French).
When
we use 'such' directly with a noun, it's often a noun that shows our opinion.
He's
such a genius! (= he's a real genius / he's very clever).
You're
such a teacher! (= you act in a typical way for a teacher).
We
can use 'so' and 'such' to mean 'to this level' or 'as ... as this'.
He
isn't usually so late (= he isn't usually as late as this).
I
don't often drink such a lot of coffee (= I don't often drink as much coffee as
this).
We
use 'so' before 'much / many / little / few' with and without a noun.
This shows that the amount is really
a lot or really little. As usual, we use a plural noun after 'many' and 'few'
and an uncountable noun after 'much' and 'little'.
I
ate so much.
I
ate so much cake.
He
had so many books.
Why
did you eat so little?
He
had so few friends that he was very lonely.
Other
Uses of So and Such
Such
+ noun = a certain type or kind of (this is quite formal)
I'd
never heard such music before. (=
I'd never heard this kind of music
before.)
Such
as = for example / like
A:
We should get a film for tonight.
B:
Such as? (= please give an example of a film)
Cities
such as London are becoming more powerful politically (= cities like London
...).
So
= a certain amount / size
It
was so big (= it was the size I'm showing you with my hands).
There's
only so much time (there's only a certain amount of time).
So
= something that has already been said
A:
Is dinner ready?
B:
I hope so (= I hope that dinner is ready)
Is
that so? (= is that right?)
Or
so = approximately
I
think there were fifty people or so at the party (= I think there were
approximately fifty people at the party).
Purpose
(To infinitive)
or
a Conjunction ( in order to, so as to, for)
Purpose clauses show why people do
things.
Example :
1. They stopped to look at the map.
2. Vehicles have been fitted with catalytic
converters in
3. order to reduce pollution.
4. 1 arrived early so as to / in order to
appear keen
5. We use this Allen key for tightening the
snews.
6. We use this Allen key to tighten the snews.
Concession
and Contrasting
However,
though, even though, although, even so, Nevertheles, all the same, etc
Concession clauses link statements
which contrast
with one another in a surprising way
( something unexpected).
Example :
1. Even though it's fieezing cold, Pam insists
on weanng a miniskirt.
2. I love travelling, though Ifind airports
tinng.

A connective is a word or phrase that links clauses or
sentences. Connectives can be both Conjunctions & Transition Signals. The
function of connecting words is very important to sign the logical relationships between ideas
in a text so that the reader can easily understand the relationship between the
parts of a text.
