Connectors & Conjunctions – English-Spanish Vocabulary Quiz

Conectores y conjunciones – Vocabulario inglés-español

Connectors turn single words into sentences and sentences into conversations. This list covers the basic conjunctions (y, o, pero, porque), the sequencing words (primero, luego, después), the fillers Mexicans use constantly (bueno, pues, o sea), and the links that take the subjunctive (para que, a menos que). Practice 50 items in both directions (English ⇄ Spanish).

Four spelling rules

y becomes e before a word starting with i- or hi-: padres e hijos.
o becomes u before a word starting with o- or ho-: siete u ocho.
pero = but; sino = but rather, only after a negative: no es rojo, sino azul.
porque (one word) = because; ¿por qué? (two words, accent) = why?
