This closed captioned, high definition video examines how to use German coordinating conjunctions. The presentation will first examine the use of coordinating conjunctions in English, focusing on how coordinating conjunctions are used to create compound structures and to join sentences together. Then the video will move over to an examination of the German coordinating conjunction “und,” “oder,” “denn,” “aber,” and “sondern” before concluding with examples of how these conjunctions are used in sentences. As in other videos in the series, examples in English will preface our discussion of German grammar topics as a means of quickly developing background knowledge.
