Союзы – это части речи, служащие для соединения слов,

Союзы могут состоять из одного слова (and, by, because,
as, yet, etc.), нескольких слов (in case, as soon as, on condition
(that), in spite of, so that, etc.), а также употребляться в паре
(both … and, neither … nor, as … as, etc.)
В зависимости от характера синтаксической связи союзы
подразделяются на сочинительные (coordinate conjunc-
tions) и подчинительные (subordinate conjunctions).
Сочинительные союзы соединяют однородные члены
простого предложения, части сложносочинённого предложения (Compound sentence) и отдельные предложения. К сочинительным союзам относятся and, but, or, both … and,
neither … nor, yet, nevertheless, besides, however, therefore, so,
moreover, etc.
Сочинительные союзы могут передавать такие значения, как: добавочная информация, пояснение, противопоставление, контраст, обобщение и т.д.
