Значення
One part of a sentence can depend on another to say what someone knows, which thing is meant, or why something happens. This lets us build several linked ideas into one sentence. Languages can mark this link with joining words, special verb forms, or word order, and some do not use a separate joining word. Unlike Addition, the parts do not have equal jobs: one supports or completes the other.
Як це розпізнати
Look for a smaller message that completes or adds information to another part of the sentence rather than standing as an equal statement.
