Unions are? Types, examples of use

In the article, we will understand what unions are. This has to do with the section of morphology. In the picture below you can see the answer to the question about what parts of the speech are in Russian.

The peculiarity of unions is that they do not refer to the independent members of the sentence and do not change like verbs or adverbs. So, more in detail.

Definition

Below there is an image with the answer to the question: "What is the union?". Let us single out three points:

Unions belong to the service parts of speech. What does this mean? What are the alliances for? This is a way of communication, which is used to connect homogeneous members, simple sentences that are in a compound.
They can not distinguish morphemes, since they are whole and indivisible.
These are not independent members of the proposal.

Examples of communication

Unions differ from prepositions: they are not related to the grammatical features of neighboring words. They do not require that the nouns stand in a certain case. This is a syntactic connection of a higher level. At the same time, unions can be repeated, although this is absolutely not necessary. Let's consider in more detail the proposals with the unions:

He hung the portrait in place and looked thoughtfully out the window. "AND" connects homogeneous predicates.
The lessons were canceled because the air temperature was very low. "Because" connects two parts of one complex sentence.
We often forget memorable dates, names of friends, birthdays of relatives. And also we show inattention to our colleagues at work. "And also" unifies in meaning two separate sentences in the text.

Types of unions

We offer you a table. Unions differ in ways of education, which can be clearly seen below:

Method of education

Non-derivatives

With the help of simple unions, without a genetic connection with other parts of speech (Yes, but, or, yes)

Derivatives

1.Putem connection of two non-derivative unions (since, as if)

2.Putem connection of the word-generalization and the non-union union (until)

3.By connecting a non-derivative union and an index word (in order to)

4. From other parts of speech (while, while)

It can be seen from the table that from the point of view of morphology the unions in Russian are divided into simple ones, which consist of one basis (and, for), and compound (two or more). Example of the second type: while. Compound, in turn, are divided into double and repetitive. In the double can be allocated a mandatory part.

Example: "Not so much he wanted, as required by circumstances." More often there are other options: "If the street is overcast, then he absolutely does not want to get up early." Among the repetitive most common: neither ... nor, or ... or, then ... that. Example: "Neither she nor he was ready to take a step towards each other."

You should pay attention to the spelling: all the composite (derived) unions are written separately. Example: "She was happy, because no one noticed her absence."

The diagram above shows that, depending on the syntactic sign, all the unions are divided into two types: coherent and subordinate.

The first link equals in their meaningsimple sentences, as well as homogeneous terms. The latter occur when the parts are not equal. One sentence is subordinate to the other and you can ask a question from it. In turn, they have a smaller gradation. Examples are shown in the table on the picture below.

Writing unions

To understand the meaning of these unions, consider the table.

Name	Value	Examples
Connecting	And this, and then	It is necessary to read not only scientific, but also fiction.
Separating	Either this or that	Not that she was ill, or just was experiencing mild ailment due to fatigue.
Advocative	Not this, but that	He wanted to call her, but changed his mind.

From the table shown in the picture, it can be seen thatsometimes allocate and other creative unions. These are explanatory and connecting. There is such a thing as comparative unions in Russian. But they are more often referred to as the first variant - the connecting one. Example: "Both children and parents did not accept a new teacher."

Sub-unions

Combining unequal components and pointing out the dependence of one on the other, subordinate unions are used not only to link sentences, but also homogeneous and heterogeneous members.

Examples: "The show is interesting, although somewhat prolonged." Here "although" connects homogeneous definitions. What are the unions used for such compounds? it as if, as though. Example: "The lake in winter is like a mirror."

Here are the categories of subordinate unions, but note: some can be attributed to several. Examples of many-valued: that (explanatory and target); when (conditional and temporary).

Name of the category	Unions	Examples
Temporary	When, just for now, only	He went on walks, until autumn came.
Causal	Because, because, because	You can not speak loudly in class, as it distracts other students.
Conditional	If, if only	If you eat irregularly, you can spoil your stomach.
Targeted	To ensure that	It is necessary to drink purified water so as not to get poisoned.
Intentional	Despite the fact that, although	She spoke more and more quietly, although he continued to cry.
Consequences	So that	We need to hurry, so we can do without breakfast.
Comparative	How, exactly, as if, like, than	He threw himself on food, as if he had never eaten such a delicacy before.
Explanatory	How to, what, what	She did not understand how he could do this.

You should pay attention to the spelling of the unions. Most often they are written togetheratoms, too, also). They must be distinguished from another part of speech - prepositions with adverbs. Separately, only composite unions are written, and also "that is" and "that is to say."
