Conjunctions are important for linking thoughts in French. Let’s look at three easy ones you can use:

1. Et (and)

   • This word connects similar ideas or adds more information.
   • Example: J'aime le chocolat et les fraises.
     (I like chocolate and strawberries.)

2. Mais (but)

   • This word shows a difference between two ideas.
   • Example: Je suis fatigué, mais je vais sortir.
     (I am tired, but I will go out.)

3. Ou (or)

   • This word gives choices.
   • Example: Tu veux un café ou un thé?
     (Do you want a coffee or a tea?)

Grammar Points

• Definite Articles: These are the words le, la, l’ (they point to specific things).
• Indefinite Articles: These are un, une (they refer to anything not specified).
• Subject Pronouns: These are je, tu, il, elle (they refer to I, you, he, she).
• Negative Sentences: We use ne...pas to say what we don’t do.
  • Example: Je ne mange pas.
    (I do not eat.)

Using these conjunctions helps you connect your thoughts while you practice basic French sentences!
