A coordinating conjunction is a word that joins two elements of equal grammatical rank and syntactic importance. They can join two verbs, two nouns, two adjectives, two phrases, or two independent clauses. The seven coordinating conjunctions are for, and, nor, but, or, yet, and so.

The best way to remember the seven coordination conjunctions is by using the acronym FANBOYS:

F = for

A = and

N = nor

B = but

O = or

Y = yet

S = so
