CONJUNCTIONS.
243. The conjunctions are divided into co-ordinating and sub-ordinating; both these classes are again divided according to their signification into several subdivisions.
The grammarians mostly enumerate the conjunctions belonging to the several classes, but we shall here only mention those of special importance or about the use of which there is anything to remark.
A. Co-ordinating:
og and; baade–og both–and; in the same meaning: saa vel–som as well–as: jeg saarel som du or saavel jeg som du I as well as you; dels–dels partly–partly; snart–snart now–now; han er snart kold, (og) snart varm now he feels cold, now warm; eller or; enten–eller either–or; hverken–eller neither–nor; thi for; men but.
