Learning Tips

  • Learn coordinating conjunctions ('i' - and, 'ili' - or, 'ali' - but) to connect simple sentences.
  • Use subordinating conjunctions ('da' - that, 'jer' - because, 'ako' - if) to create complex sentences.
  • Use concessive conjunctions ('iako' - although, 'premda' - though) in contrasting ideas.
