An abbreviation for conjunction, the part of speech that connects words, phrases, or clauses together in a sentence.
Shortened form of 'conjunction,' which comes from Latin 'conjungere' (to join together) from 'con-' (with) plus 'jungere' (to join).
In grammar, conjunctions are the sentence's glue—'and,' 'but,' and 'or' seem simple, but they completely change meaning, like how 'I love pizza and broccoli' means something totally different from 'I love pizza but not broccoli!'
