Sindhi grammar may look intimidating at first glance, but once you understand basic grammar concepts such as prepositions and conjunctions, constructing sentences becomes much simpler. In this lesson, we will go over what prepositions and conjunctions are in Sindhi, how to use them correctly in sentences, and some common examples.
So, let’s embark on this journey together and enhance our Sindhi language skills!


== Prepositions ==
__TOC__


Prepositions are words that describe the relationship between two things. They generally show spatial, temporal, or directional relationships between two objects or ideas. In Sindhi, prepositions always come before the noun or pronoun that they are modifying.
=== What are Prepositions? === 


There are many different prepositions in Sindhi, but some of the most common ones are:
Prepositions are words that link nouns, pronouns, or phrases to other words within a sentence. They often indicate relationships of time, place, direction, and manner. In Sindhi, just like in English, prepositions are vital for constructing meaningful sentences.


* سان - San - with
==== Types of Prepositions ====
* کان - Kan - from
* تان - Tan - to, towards
* جي - Ji - of, from, to
* وارو - Waro - about, concerning, related to
* سڀ - Sabh - including, along with
* پيار - Pyar - close to, next to
* اندر - Andar - inside
* باهر - Bahar - outside

Below are some examples of Sindhi prepositions used in sentences:
1. '''Prepositions of Place''': Indicate location. 
 
2. '''Prepositions of Time''': Indicate time. 
 
3. '''Prepositions of Direction''': Indicate direction or movement. 
 
Let’s look at some examples of each type:

== Conjunctions ==
=== What are Conjunctions? ===


Conjunctions are words that join two clauses, phrases or words together. In Sindhi, they are used to connect different parts of a sentence, including subjects, verbs, and objects. There are three types of conjunctions in Sindhi:
Conjunctions are words that connect clauses, sentences, or words. They help us to form compound or complex sentences, allowing us to express more elaborate thoughts.


* Coordinating conjunctions - These join words, phrases, or clauses of equal importance. Examples are "او" (Oo - and) and "يا" (Ya - or).
==== Types of Conjunctions ====
* Subordinating conjunctions - These join a dependent clause to an independent clause. Examples are "جڏهن" (Jadhen - when) and "جيڪڏهن" (Ji-kadhen - if).
* Correlative conjunctions - These are used in pairs to join different parts of a sentence. Examples are "ڏملا/وه ڏملا" (Dumla/woh dumla - either/or) and "سڀجي ڏانهن" (Sabhji danhen - both/and).


Below are some examples of Sindhi conjunctions used in sentences:
1. '''Coordinating Conjunctions''': Join elements of equal importance. 
 
2. '''Subordinating Conjunctions''': Join a dependent clause to an independent clause. 
 
Here are some examples of conjunctions in Sindhi:

== Using Prepositions and Conjunctions in Sentences ==
=== Using Prepositions in Sentences === 
 
To better understand how prepositions function in Sindhi, let’s look at some more examples in sentences:
 
1. '''Prepositions of Place''': 
 
* '''مُنهنجي ڪتاب گھر ۾ آهي.''' 
 
''Munjhay kitaab ghar mein aahe.'' 
 
''(My book is in the house.)'' 
 
2. '''Prepositions of Time''': 
 
* '''اڄ شام جو ملاقات آهي.''' 
 
''Aj shaam jo mulaqat aahe.'' 
 
''(There is a meeting this evening.)'' 
 
3. '''Prepositions of Direction''': 
 
* '''هو هتي اچي رهيو آهي.''' 
 
''Ho hite aachi rahyo aahe.'' 
 
''(He is coming here.)'' 
 
Now, let’s explore some examples for conjunctions:
 
1. '''Coordinating Conjunctions''': 
 
* '''مون کي چائو پسند آهي ۽ کير پڻ.''' 
 
''Mon khe chayo pasand aahe aain kheir pan.'' 
 
''(I like tea and milk as well.)'' 
 
2. '''Subordinating Conjunctions''': 
 
* '''جيئن هن چيو، اسان هلون ٿا.''' 
 
''Jiyoon hun chayo, asaan haloon tha.'' 
 
''(As he said, we will go.)'' 
 
=== Summary of Prepositions and Conjunctions === 
 
To summarize, prepositions are important for indicating relationships in terms of place, time, and direction. Conjunctions, on the other hand, help us connect thoughts and ideas. Both these elements are essential for effective communication in Sindhi.
 
=== Practice Exercises === 
 
Now, let’s put your knowledge to the test! Here are some exercises for you to work on:
 
==== Exercise 1: Fill in the Blanks ====
 
Fill in the blanks with the appropriate prepositions: 
 
1. '''هو ____ باغ ۾ آهي.''' 
 
2. '''مون کي ____ شام جو چائو پسند آهي.''' 
 
3. '''توهان ____ گود ۾ ٻار کي رکي سگهو ٿا.'''
 
==== Exercise 2: Identify the Conjunctions ====
 
Read the sentences below and underline the conjunctions: 
 
1. '''مون کي پياز پسند آهي پر مٺو نه.'''

=== Solutions and Explanations === 
 
Here are the solutions to the exercises: 
 
==== Exercise 1: Fill in the Blanks ====
 
1. '''هو ''باغ'' ۾ آهي.''' 
 
2. '''مون کي ''شام'' جو چائو پسند آهي.''' 
 
3. '''توهان ''گود'' ۾ ٻار کي رکي سگهو ٿا.'''
 
==== Exercise 2: Identify the Conjunctions ====
 
1. '''مون کي پياز پسند آهي '''پر''' مٺو نه.''' 
 
2. '''جيئن''' توهان چاهيو، اسان سان گڏ هلون ٿا. 
 
==== Exercise 3: Match the Columns ====


Now that you know what prepositions and conjunctions are, it's important to know how to use them correctly in sentences. Remember that prepositions should always come before the noun or pronoun that they're modifying, and conjunctions should connect two parts of a sentence together.

|-------------------|---------------------|


* منهنجي جديد کتاب جي هڪ پانڄون فصل سان ختم ٿي || Menhiji jadeed kitab ji hik panjon fasal san khatam thi || Our new book ends with the fifth chapter.

As you become more confident using prepositions and conjunctions, you'll be able to form more complex and nuanced sentences.
| جو                | b. at              |
 
| سان                | c. with            |
 
Through this lesson, we’ve explored the fascinating world of prepositions and conjunctions in Sindhi. With practice, using these elements will become second nature to you, enhancing both your speaking and writing skills.
