Correlative conjunctions connect adjectives, nouns, or clauses. They are formed by two or more words that function as a structure. Correlative conjunctions always come in pairs.

Quotes that apply: Remember that correlative conjunctions are always used in pairs.

-" ... [F]or her to treat me as a human being was not only wrong, but dangerously so." (Douglass)

-"When I was younger I could remember anything, whether it happened or not." (Twain)

Quotes that do not apply: Although the following have elements of correlative conjunctions, these elements are isolated and not in pairs.

-"The strawberries were fragrant and fine ..." (Twain)

-"The town reacted to us as its inhabitants had reacted to all things new before our coming." (Angelou)
