THE ANALYSIS OF USING CONJUNCTION IN CINDERELLA

ABSTRACT

In the each of languages, of course, English is too.Using sentence or
clause or phrase with full meaning is very important in communicationand
written worrks.Furthermore,if we only use simple sentence, it is not

enough.Frequently, we still use compound or complex sentence,So, the
using conjunction to link sentence or clause or phrase is evitable.
In this paper, we discuss conjunctions in english as well as analyze some
conjunctions in “ Cinderella” story.

PART A INTRODUCTION
1.Justification of the study
In the intergrating life, English becomes the common language which
people from all over the world want to learn or study.English is used as an
official language in many countries and in many fields such as:
sport,medical , music,aviation,business,…This is the reason why all people
learn or study English. However, during the process of communicate or
writing, we still embarrass in linking sentences and whether we use
conjunction is correct or not?
To identify all kinds of conjunctions and their usage are not sometimes
easy for students and learners of English.
Being a English student, it is very important and necessary for me to
understand clearly when learning conjunction.
Besides that,I also find that my paper is quite interesting.So I decided to
choose this topic for my paper.
2. Aims of the Study.
With the above reasons, our targets of this paper, firstly is to give the
general description kinds of English conj.
Most importantly, researching some conjunction used in “Cinderella”
fairy story.
Finally, helping the learners to understand deeper about the usages of
connectives.
3. Method of the Study.
_ Review of published theories
_ The analysis the using of conjunction in English and this mentioned
story.

_ Both quanlity and quality method
4. Scope of the Study
As mentioned above, in this paper we used some context such as :

CHAPTER 1

THEORETICAL BACKGROUND

1.1

An overview about conjunction

1.1.1. What is conjunction ?
-Some concepts for conj:
+ A conj is a word which joins words, phrases, clauses or sentences.
+ In grammar, conjunction is a part of speech that connects words,
phrases, clauses or sentences together.
Ex: 1. I must go to school all day but Sunday.
2. She is not only beautiful but also intelligent.
- Conj’s functions link words, phrases, or clauses and describe the
relationship

among

compositions

is

connected

(

subordinating

or

coordinating relationship).
1.1.2 Position of conjunction
- The normal position for most conj is initial
- Some conjunctions are restricted, or virtually restricted to initial,for
example; again,also,altogether, besides, overall, then (antithetic), yet.
- Medial positions are rare for most conjs, and final position rarer still.
- Excepting for initial position, conjs may be in an independent tone
unit or enclosed in commas to prevent confusion with homonyms or
contribute towards indicating informal focus.
1.1.3 Forms of conjunction
- Conj may be simple words : and, but, or ,becase…etc..
Ex : 1.You or I must leave right now.
2.We still went out although the rain is heavy.
- Conj may be a phrase : in order that, as though, as soon as, as well as.
Cao ThÞ H»ng
English

Class: K48A-

THE ANALYSIS OF USING CONJUNCTION IN CINDERELLA

Ex : I must study hard in order that I will have good marks in final
exam.
Conj

-

may

be

some

common

correlative

pairs:

either

…or,

neither….nor, not only…but also, both…and.
Ex: He is not only stupid, but also obstinate.
Classifincation of Conj

1.2

1.2.1. Based on the characteristic of Conj: there are some kinds:
Enumerative: first, second, third,…, first(ly), secondly, thirdly …; one,
two, three, for, one thing… (and) for another (thing) ; for a stsrt, next,
then, last, lastly,…
Reinforcing : also, furthermore, morever, then, in addition, above all,
what is more, and
Equative : equally, like wise, similarly,…
Trasitional: by the way, incidentally
Summative : then, (all) in all, in conclusion, …
Apposition : namely , in other words, for example,
Result : consequently , nhence, so, there fore, thus, as a result
Inferential : else, othetwise, then, on the other hand
Replacive : alternatively, ratheron the conteary, in contrast, by
comporison
Concessive: any how, any way, beside, else, however, never therless,
still, though, yet, in any case, at any rate, in spite of that, apter all,but
Temporal teansition : mean time,mean while
1.2.2

Based on the conj’s role: 3 types of conj.

a.Coordinating conjs
-

coordination conj, also called coordinators, are used to join two or
more items of equal syntactic importance.

- when a coordinator joins independent clause, it is always correct to
place a comma before the conj.
Ex: He was tired, so he went to bed early.
However,if the independent clauses are short and well-balanced, a comma
is not really essential:
Cao ThÞ H»ng
English

3

Class: K48A-

THE ANALYSIS OF USING CONJUNCTION IN CINDERELLA

Ex: She is kind so she helps people.
-

Position of coordinators : always come between the words or clauses
that they join.

-

Coordinator can be divided into four groups:
+ group “and”: implies addition and include some conjs,such
as,and,both..and..,not only.. but also..,as well as,also,then…
Ex: He drinks both wine and beer.
+

group

“but”:

indicates

a

contrast

or

but,still,yet,however,nevertheless,although,in

exception,such
spite

of,

as,

though,

despite…
Ex: The shoes are old but comfortable.
+

group

“so”:

refers

result,

effective,

such

as:

therefore,consequently,so,hence,thus…
b. Subordinating conj
-

Subordinating

conjs,

also

called

subornators,are

example,after,although,as,because,before,how,if,since..

that

conjs,for

connect

a

subordinate (dependent) clause to a main (independent) clause.
Ex: I went swimming although it was cold.
-

A subordinating or dependent clause depends on a main or
independent clause.It can not exist alone.But a main or indepenpent
clause can exist alone.

-

A

subordinating

conj

always

comes

at

the

beginning

of

a

subordinating clause.It introduces a subordinate clause.However, a
subordinate clause can sometimes come after and sometimes before
a main clause.Thus,two structures are possible:
+
Main clause

Sub.clause

Ex: I went swimming although it was raining.
+

Cao ThÞ H»ng
English

Sub.clause

Main clause

4

Class: K48A-

THE ANALYSIS OF USING CONJUNCTION IN CINDERELLA

Ex: Although it was raining I went to swimming.

Subordinator may be:

-

+

group

“

when”:

refer

the

time-

relationship,

such

as:

when,whenever,while,as soon as, until,till, before,after…
Ex: please call me whenever you are free.
+

group

“because”:

means

reasons,

include:because,now,as,since,seeing that..
Ex: She was ill because she worked hard.
+ group “if”: implies the condition,such as: if,unless,provided(that)
Ex: If I were you, I would left him.
+ group “ though”: implies the concession,other conj are: wherever,
although, whatever, whether…or not, no matter what, however,in
spite of…
Ex: You must leave here right now, whether you want or not
+ group “ in order that” refer the aim, for example: in order that, so
that, in case
+ group “that”: introduces the content is mentioned
Ex: She said that she would help me.
c. Correlative
-

Correlative

is

mutually

related,

expressing

a

reciprocal

or

complementary relation; "correlative conjunctions"
- Correlative may be group so… that:indicate the result,there are two
structures:
→ so + adj/adv + that
Ex: She is so old that she can not carry that chair.
→ such + noun phrase + that
Ex: It is such an interesting book that I have read many times.
CHAPTER 2

ANALYZING THE CONJ IN CINDERELLA FAIRY TALE

2.1 An overview about “Cinderella” fairy tale
Cinderella; or, The Little Glass Slipper" (French: Cendrillon, ou La petite
Pantoufle de Verre) is a classic folk tale embodying a myth-element of
unjust oppression/triumphant reward. Thousands of variants are known
Cao ThÞ H»ng

Class: K48A-

THE ANALYSIS OF USING CONJUNCTION IN CINDERELLA

throughout the world.The title character is a young woman living in
unfortunate circumstances which suddenly change to remarkable fortune.
The word "cinderella" has, by analogy, come to mean one whose
attributes

are

unrecognised,

or

one

who

unexpectedly

achieves

recognition or success after a period of obscurity and neglect. The stillpopular story of Cinderella continues to influence popular culture
internationally, lending plot elements, allusions, and tropes to a wide
variety of media.
2.2 Part 1 from Once upon a time to garrel : Cinderella and her unhappy
life.
Now we will see conj in this paragragh:
The new wife hated har young stepdaughter, because her gentle ways
and the sweetness of her temper, which was shown in her beautiful face,
made the ill manners and frowning faces of her own daughters appear as

disagreeable and ugly as they really were. So she set her to do all the
meanest work of the house. The young girl swept, baked and washed for
the whole household. She wore only shabby clothes and slept in a bare
garrel.
( par 2,page 1, in Appendix)
Because is a conj as “ cause” connective or subordinator used to link two
clauses “The new wife hated har young stepdaughter” and “her gentle
ways and the sweetness of her temper”.It is a comma before because
and the clause contains because is subordinating clause.
In the first sentence, there are three coordinators “ and” which link two
parallel elements ( adj and NP) and the second adj or NP is a pure addition
to the first.Howerer, the first “and” links two NP “her gentle ways” and
“the sweetness of her temper”.All NP plays role as subject in sentence,the
second which also connects NP “
the ill manners” and “frowning faces of her own daughters” and this NP is
object in sentence.While the third “and” is coordinator to link two adj
“disagreeable” and “ugly” in equal comparison.
The next conj is subordinator “so”.It refers an informal of result and its
function links two

sentences.The event in second sentence is a

consequence or result of the event in the first.So is initial position.
Cao ThÞ H»ng

Class: K48A-

THE ANALYSIS OF USING CONJUNCTION IN CINDERELLA

And is used as a coordinator in the third sentence.And means
enumeratation of verbs: swept,baked,washed.
In the last sentence, and is a coordinate conj used to connect two VP
“wore only shabby clothes” and “slept in a bare garrel” with the same
subject “ she”.And,here implies the addition.
2.3 Part 2 from “Now it happened that” to “on the staircase”: the fairy
Godmother helped Cinderella to become a beautiful girl and the
interesting meeting between prince and Cinderella.
Firstly, I want to analyze the using of connectives in paragraph:
Now it happened that the king’s son made up his mind to give a ball,(1)
and to invite to it all the people of fashion in that country-side. There was
to be dancing for two evenings, (2)and the supper(3) and entertainment
were to be of very splendid kind.
Cinderella’s stepsisters were invited; (4)and very proud and happy
they were,(1) as they talked of the smart dresses they would wear,(5)and
they grand folk they would meet at the palace.
(1) When the great day came, Cinderella was busy, from morning till
evening, helping her sisters to get ready for the ball. She feced their
gowns, dressed their hair, arranged their feathers (6)and jewels, (7)and
even put on their slippers.(2) As she did so, they teased her, to amuse
themselves.
At last the sisters were ready,(8) and with their mother, they drove
away to the palace.(2) When they were gone, Cinderella, left alone, sat
down among the cinders,(9) and began to cry.
( par 4 -> 7,p.1, in Appendix)
Now is an transitional conj which introduces a new part in the sequence
of the story.Now, here started an important event which changed

Cinderella’s life.
That is a bubordinate conj linking the first clause “ Now it happened” and
the second “the king’s son made up his mind to give a ball, and to invite
to it all the people of fashion in that country-side”.Here, “that” clause is
subordinate clause.

Cao ThÞ H»ng

Class: K48A-

THE ANALYSIS OF USING CONJUNCTION IN CINDERELLA

There are nine conj “ and”.so we will see other conj before “and”.
(1)As is subordinator of time relationship used to link wto clauses in the
sentence and a comma is laid before “so”.
Time relationship between clauses is signalled by temporal adverb
(1)When.Here,when is subordinator which has simultaneous with given
time-reference.Of course, the clause containing “ when” is subordinate
clause.
In initial position of the third sentence is subordinator (2)As which is used
to link two clauses and refers time related.”As she did so,” is subordinate
clause and the rest is main clause.
At last is enumerating conj as well as a transitional conj to end the part
Cinderella’s sisters was prepared and went to the ball during she is not
done yet.
(2)When, an initial subordinator, refers time-related,links two clauses and

“when they were gone” is called subordinate clause.
(1)and is used to connect two VPs and preceded by a comma.The first VP
is a condition of the second.
(2,(3)and are used to join two clauses or NPs and the second NP or clause
is a pure addition to the first.(2)and links two independent “There was to
be dancing for two evenings” and “the supper(3) and entertainment were
to be of very splendid kind”.it is a comma immediately preceds the conj to
separate two clauses while (3)and connects NP “ the supper” and “
entertainment”, and plays as subject in the second clause.
(4)and links two clauses.It is middle and a comma is before.The event in
the second inversion clause “(4)and very proud and happy they were,” is
a result of the event in the first “Cinderella’s stepsisters were invited”.
(5)and combines two AP “very proud” and “ happy” implies the
enumeration.the second clause holding “as” also has a conj “and”
meaning the adding between two clauses “as they talked of the smart
dresses they would wear” and “they grand folk they would meet at the
palace”.A comma is used to separate each unit.

(6)and links two NPs “ their feather” and “their jewels” but coordinator
and is used for ellipsis “their” in second NP.

(7)and,the coordinator do not allow another conj to precede it.Here, two
coordinating clauses are linked by “and”
Which precedes the second conj “even”.With precedind comma,”and”
connects four VPs:” feced their gowns”, “dressed their hair”, “arranged
their feathers (6)and jewels”,and” put on their slippers”.
(8)and is a coordinator with a before comma to add the Cinderella’s
sisters and their mother.
(9)and,here is coordinator,describes some actions occur together and it is
the addition of three VPs: “left alone”, “sat down among the cinders”,
“began to cry”.
Secondly, The next part- the fairy Godmother prepared for Cinderella to
the ball.Some conj appear from the next paragraph to “that ever were
seen”
Cinderella was so much startled that she left off crying, as she looked
up and saw, standing before her, an old lady in a red cloak and pointed
hat, leaning on a stick. This was cinderella’s Godmother, who was a fairy.
(par.8,page.1,appendix)
The correlative pair “so…that” implies purpose, links two clauses and
“that” clause is subordinate clause.
As,a subordinator with preceding comma, combines the before clause and
its behind clause.It implies the time relationship.
And is coordinator linking two VPs and may be seen as chronologically
sequent,” she looked up and/then saw”.
And,also a coordinate conj, links two Adjs “cloak” and “pointed” in NP with
meaning adding.
Now, there are three conjs with the same kinds “and”:
“ Run into garden,” said the Godmother,” (i)and fetch me the largest
pumpkin you can find.”
Away went Cinderlla, (ii)and very soon she ran back again, hugging a
big green (iii)and yellow pumpkin

Cao ThÞ H»ng

THE ANALYSIS OF USING CONJUNCTION IN CINDERELLA

(par 8,9.page 1,appendix)
(i)and is conj which the second VP is ordering continuity to event in the
first.
(ii)is used to combine two clauses in inversion, refers two Cinderella’s
actions occurring constantly .“Away went Cinderlla” is an action and then
“very soon she ran back again, hugging a big green” with acomma before
conj.
(iii) connects two Adj “ green” and “ yellow” in NP, it is pure adding of the
second adj to the first.
In the paragraph 10:
The fairy Godmother scooped out the inside of the pumpkin, leaving
nothing but rind. Then she touched it with her stick, which was really a
fairy wand, (a)and at once the pumpkin became a fine coach, shinning all
over with gold,(b) and lined with green.
“ Now fetch the mousetrap,” said she.
( par 10, page 1,2,appendix)
But is coordinator,denotes an exception “leaving nothing but rind”.
Then, a subordinator,refers subsequent to given time- reference.The
sentence which contains “then” is following stage of the before sentence
and both of them are connected by subordinator- then.

(a)and, a coordinator with a comma before it,makes the relationship
explicit the event in the second clause is chronologically frequence to the
first.
(b)And is coordinate conj and has a comma before.And links “shinning all
over with gold” and “ lined with green”t to present adding.
Now in “ Now fetch the mousetrap,” is coordinator introducing a new
event the sequence of preparing for Cinderella go to the ball.It is initial
position.
The fairy Godmother opened the trap, and as each ran out, she touched it
with her wand, (c)and it became a sleek (d)and prancing horse.
“ there are your coach (e)and horses,” said she, “ now for the
coachman.Bring me the rat-trap.
(par. 11, page 2, appendix)
Cao ThÞ H»ng

THE ANALYSIS OF USING CONJUNCTION IN CINDERELLA

And as are two conj and subordinator as is preceded by coordinator
and.This sentence is an asyndetic conj if no and,with the addition of
“and”, it becomes syndetic.In this sentence, two clauses are linked by
subordinator as are also linked by and.
(c)And is a coordinator with preceding comma linking two clauses.And
denotes a relationship between the contants of clauses.Here, semantic
implications of coordinating by and means the clause “ it became a sleek

and prancing horse.” Is the result of before clause.
(d)and ,a coordinator, connects two Adjs “ sleek” and “ prancing” in NP “a
sleek and prancing horse.” Shows the adding.
(e) and, coordinator, links two nouns “ coach” and “ horses” meaning
enumeration.
Now, also coordinator and transition of its sentence with before
sentence.Here, we can see a ordering list: coach, horses,coachman.
In the paragraph 12:
….The fairy Godmother chose the finest of the three , and touched it
with her wand. At once the rat became a tall and handsomely-dressed
coachman.” Behind the watering pot are six green lizards,” said the fairy
Godmother: “ bring them here.”
And, a coordinator with a comma before, implies the relationship which
the second action “touched it with her wand” is the order process to the
first.
At once,here, a enumerating conj
And links two adjs “tall”,”hansomely-dressed” as coordinator with adding
to make NP.
Now, seeing the conjs in the next par:
“Cinderella brought the six lizards,(1a)and at a touch of the wand,
each one was turned into a smart footman, in a green uniform. The
coachman mounted the box, (1b)and the footman climbed to the back of
the coach. “ Now your carriage is ready,” said the fairy Godmother.
“ But how can I go to the ball like this?” said Cinderella, looking down
at her shabby frock.
“ You shall soon be more beautiful than your coach,” replied her
Godmother, tapping her lightly with her wand. Then Cinderrell’s clothes

were turned into robes of silk (1c)and velvet, glittering with jewels.
(1d)And the fairy Godmother gave her a little pair of shinning glass
slippers, the prettiest that ever were seen.
“ Remember,” said her Godmother,” you must leave the ball before
the clock strikes twelve. If you do not, your coach will again become a
pumpkin, your horses will become mice, your coachman will turn into a
rat,(1e) and your footmen into lizards; while you will find yourself once
more in shaaby clothes.”
(par 13,page 2,appendix)
(1a),(1b), coordinators with a comma before,but(1a) combines two
clauses

while(1b)shows

the

addition between two clauses.

But indicates the contrast between luxurious carriage and cinderella
shabby frock.But is coordinator.
Subordinator Then implies the result of a process, it is cinderella’s old
clothes become robes.
(1c) links two nouns “silk” and “velvet” means addition, it is coordinate
conj.
(1d) stared a newsentence.However, this sentence is chronologically
frequency to the before sentence.And, here is a coordinator.
That is a subordinator,links two clauses having an inversion.That is used
in the supper comparison.
Before, subordinator is used to link two clauses “you must leave the ball”
and the clock strikes twelve”.Before expresses the time-related between
clauses.The clause holding “before” is dependent clause.
Here, if in the type I of conditional sentence is used as conj link two
clauses.”If” clause is the condition to the main clause so it is subordinate
clause.
And,

While,here is also conj.It is usually a subordinator of time but in
case,while is coordinator combining some events happen together.The bad
thing happen to her.
Subordinator as is time conj with initial position.As clause is dependent
clause.And a comma separates the dependent clause to the main clause:
“As she entered, the musicans ceased playing, (1e)and the dancers
stopped dancing,while all gazed in surprise at the lovely unknown
princess.”
In the main clause, two conjs are used:and,while.They are coordinator.
(1e)And links two clauses that the second clause is ordering sequence to
the first and a comma before.While connects the before clause to its after
clause and implies the evitable result “all gazed in surprise at the lovely
unknown princess”.A semi-colon is before conj.

The next paragraph is the first evening Cinderella go to the palace.And
some conjs are used to link events occurring at that time:
“All the evening, the prince kept Cinderella’s side, dancing with her,
(1f)and serving her with dainly dishes at supper-time.Indeed, his mind
was so taken up with her that he gorgot to eat a morsel himself.While
Cinderella was talking to her stepsisters, who did not know it was
Cinderella, the clock chimed the quarter before twelve.Cinderella rose,
(1g)and after curtsying to the company, left the palace,(1h)and drove
home in her coach. Then she thanked her Gosmother for the kindness
which had given her so much happiness,(1i)and asked leave to go to the
ball again on the next evening, when the prince had specially begged her
to come.At this moment there was a knock at the door. The fairy
Godmother(1j) and the beautiful clothes vanished as suddenly as they
had come, (1k)and cinderrella drew back the bolt,(1l) and let her
stepmother and stepsisters in.
Cinderella’ stepsisters told her of a beautiful princess who had been at
the ball.”

(1f)and, a coordinator,enumerate the events that the prince behave to

Cinderella:”kept Cinderella’s side”,”dancing with her”,”serving her with
dainly dishes at supper-time”.
Indeed, a coordinator, confirm prince’s actions have mentioned before.
A pair of correlative,so… that,expresses the result,and the dependent
clause “that he gorgot to eat a morsel himself” is the result of the main
clause.
While,a bubordinator,links two clause in a sentence,describes a action ia
happening then another action make(the clock chimed the quarter before
twelve.)
(1g)and after,two conjs, coordinator is before subordinator,of course
describe some actions happen after “ Cinderella rose”.
(1h)and,a coordinator,makes a list of actions Cinderella did.And connects
four VPs with a comma before.
Then,here expresses the next event, a coordinator refer time relationship.
(1i)and,a coordinator with following a comma,also show the adding
“thanked her Gosmother for the kindness which had given her so much
happiness”,and ”asked leave to go to the ball again on the next evening,”
Subordinator when with before comma, used to link two clauses relating
time-reference.

She thought it not yet eleven, when the clock stuck twelve. Then she
started in affright,(1o)and fled from the ballroom as swiftly as a dear. The
prince ran after her, but he did not catch her.All he could find of her was a
little glass slipper lying on the staircase”
(Par 16,17,page 3,appendix)
2.4 Part 3 from “Next morning….” to end: Cinderella and her happiness
Again, hare is conj,expresses the repetition of an action:“the stepsisters
again went to the palace”.
(1m)And,a coordinator,start new sentence, not give more anything but
show the continuity of event happen,
Even,a coordinate conj, emphasizes what the writer wanted to mention is
Cinderella’s beuty.
(1n)and,a coordinator,links two clauses (ellipsis subject two clauses),give
the addition.
So… that, a correlative pair,shows the purpose meaning that “the prince
said so many kind things to her” and as a result “Cinderella , in her
happiness, forgot how to quickly the hours flew past”
When,a subordinator with a preceding comma, combines two clauses

having a relationship of time.
A coordinator Then started a new sentence, gives the new sequence” she
started in affright”.
(1o)and,here, also a coordinator with a comma before,links two clauses:”
she started in affright”and “she fled from the ballroom as swiftly as a
dear”.
But,a coordinator,indicates the contrast,what is said in the second
conjoin” he did not catch her” is unexpected in view of what is said in the
first.It is a comma before.
All,a coordinate conj,means the summary from what is mentioned above
what happened after all? Let’s see the next paragraph:
(18)Next morning folk were roused by a sound of trumpets,(1p)and
through the streets of the town came the royal chamberlain, with guards
(1q)and an attendent carrying the little glass slipper on a velvet cushion.

(19)Cinderella’s sisters were in great haste to try on the slipper. But
though, they pinched their toes,(1r)and squeezed their heels, their feet
were fat too larger to go into it. Then the royal chambertain encuired
whether there were any other young women in the house.
“ Only Cinderella.” Said the elder sister. “ Of course the slipper would

not fit her.”
“ Let her be brought here,” said the chambertain.
(20) So Cinderella was sent for,(1s)and, siiting down in the chair, the
royal chambertain put the slipper on Cinderella’s foot.
(21) Then, to the surprise of the everyone, Cinderella drew the other
little glass slipper from her pocket (1t)and put that on also. (1u)And at
this moment the fairy Godmother appeared,(1v) and with a touch of her
wand, changed Cinderella’s foor garments into robes, more splendid than
ever.
(22) (1x)And then everyone saw that she was indeed the beautiful
princess whom the prince loved.
(par 18-> 22,page 3,appendix)
There are two conjs “and” in the first sentence
(1p)and,links two clauses denoting the adding
(1q)and connects two N “guard” and “an attendant” of preposition
p[hrase “with guards (1q)and an attendent carrying the little glass slipper
on a velvet cushion”
But, a coordinator,started a new sentence but having a relation with the
before sentence,but denotes the contrast.The result of the sentence is not
expect to the first.
Though,a subordinator after but,describes the concession,links two
clauses and “they pinched their toes,(1r)and squeezed their heels” is
dependent clause
(1r)and, links two clauses ( ellipsis subject) with a comma before shows
the addition.
Then,describes

the

The next sentence was started by a subordinator So,here it refers the

(1s)and,with two comma before and after, is a coordinator links two
VPs(ellipsis subject) indicate the chronologically sequence

Then,started a next paragraph with a comma after it,shows the
consistency.
(1t)and links two clauses with a comma before expresses the secons
clause is the order sequence to the first.It is a coordinator.
(1u) and, connects some events happening together.It is a coordinator
starting a new sentence but relation with the first.
1v)And,a coordinator with a comma before,continues the next event.
(1x)And then,two conjs and subordinator “ then” can not precede and to
show the next stage or event.
That,a bubordinator links two clauses and the clause after “that” is
subordinate clause.
And in “The stepsisters fell at Cinderella’s feet and begged her
forgiveness.” Links two clauses with the addition “fell at Cinderella’s feet”
and then “begged her forgiveness”
“(2)And Cinderella freely forgave them,(3)and asked them try to love
her”.(2) and started a new sentene, also a coordinator and this before
sentence is the condition to above sentence.(3) and links two VPs with a
comma before, and is a coordinator also refering adding
Then in “Then she was taken to the palace, where the prince met her,
with

freat

joy,

(4)and

married

her.”(par

22,page

3,appendix),

a

subordinator,showing the next event will happen(she was taken to the
palace)
(4)and,a coordinator with a comma before,links two VPs and the second is
the ordinal continuity.
Soon afterwards started a new paragraph, refers the time relationship:
“Soon afterwards, Cinderella fetched her stepsisters to live at the
palece.(5)And they were so much ashamed of their past conduct,(6)and
so grateful for her kindness, that they ceased to be proud (7)and unkind.
(8)And as their hearts became good, their faces became beautiful.Then

two lords of the court loved (9)and married them, (10)and they, as well
as Cinderella, were happy.”
(par 23,page4,appendix)

(5)And,started a new sentence show the concesion
(6)and,a coordinator with preceding comma linking two NPs in a
corelative pair so… that
So… that,a correlative pair,shows the purpose.The clause holding “that”
is the result to the before clause “that” clause is dependent clause.
(7)and,a coordinator,links two Ajds “proud” and “unkind”
(8)And as,two conjs,of course a coordinator is before “as” links two
clause in the sentence” And as their hearts became good, their faces
became beautiful”,these conjs show the cause which conduct the good
result.
Then,a coordinator,shows the happening orderinal event of what is said
before.
(9)and,connects two VPs with the same subject “two lords of the
court”,and adds the second clause to the first
(10)and,a coordinator links clause after it with the before.The second
clause is sequence to the first.It is a comma before conj.
as well as, acoordinator with a comma before,”Cinderella” is the addition
of “they”.As well as is quasi-coordinator.
Those are all conjs used in the Cinderella fairy tale.They help the story mor
fluently and clearly.
