The term 'clauses' connectors' refers to words that are used to connect two clauses in a sentence. The most common of these connectors are the word 'AND, ' which is a four-letter word. This word is used to join two independent clauses together, creating a compound sentence. Other connectors include but, or, yet, so, for, nor, AND many more. These words help to create a cohesive sentence by connecting two ideas together.
