Parts of a composite sentence and the means that link them
The simple sentences that make up a composite sentence are its parts, and the means that join the parts are linking means. The first group is conjunctions: coordinating (va, hamda, ammo, lekin, biroq, yo, yo... yo, dam... dam) and subordinating (agar, chunki, toki, basharti, mabodo). The second group is means that work as conjunctions: the words bo‘lsa, esa, deb; the particles -u (-yu), -da, -ki; correlative words; postpositional constructions such as shuning uchun, shu sababli, shu tufayli; and the conditional ending (-sa). The third means is intonation: without a conjunction the parts join only by intonation. Besides joining, conjunctions also show the relation of meaning between the parts (contrast, reason, condition and so on).
