The three conjunctive adverbs in that list are also , however , and then.

What the question is asking

The question is:

Which are conjunctive adverbs? Select three options.
also – unless – because – however – then

So you need to pick the three words that function as conjunctive adverbs , not just any conjunction.

Why those three are correct

  • also – Commonly listed as a conjunctive adverb used to add information between clauses or sentences (e.g., “She studied hard; also, she practiced daily.”)
  • however – A classic conjunctive adverb showing contrast (e.g., “I wanted to go; however, it was raining.”)
  • then – Often used as a conjunctive adverb to show time/sequence (e.g., “We ate dinner; then, we watched a movie.”)

These three can link independent clauses and act like transitions, which is exactly what conjunctive adverbs do.

Why the other two are not

  • unless – This is a subordinating conjunction , introducing a condition (e.g., “I won’t go unless you come with me.”).
  • because – This is also a subordinating conjunction , introducing a reason clause (e.g., “I stayed home because it was raining.”).

Subordinating conjunctions connect a dependent clause to an independent clause, not two independent clauses, so they are not conjunctive adverbs.
