Các liên từ kết hợp bao gồm:

For (bởi vì)	- Chỉ lí do, mục đích - Đứng ở giữa câu, sau dấu phẩy, đăng sau là mệnh đề Eg: He will surely succeed, for he works hard. Chắc chắn cậu ấy sẽ thành công, vì cậu ấy làm việc chăm chỉ.
And (và)	Mang tính bổ sung Eg: She is a good and loyal wife. Bà ấy là một bà vợ tốt và chung thuỷ.
Nor (cũng không)	- Dùng trong câu phủ định - Bổ sung ý phủ định cho câu Eg: We can't be there Monday nor Tuesday. Chúng ta không thể ở đó vào thứ Hai hay thứ Ba.
But (nhưng)	Diễn tả sự trái ngược, đối lập Eg: He is intelligent but very lazy. Cậu ấy thông minh nhưng rất lười.
Or (hoặc)	Bổ sung mang tính lựa chọn Eg: We have to work hard, or we will fail the exam. Chúng ta phải học chăm, hoặc là chúng ta sẽ thi trượt.
Yet (nhưng)	Diễn tả sự trái ngược, đối lập Eg: She says she does not love me, yet I still love her. Cô ấy nói không yêu tôi, nhưng tôi vẫn yêu cô ấy.
So (vì vậy)	Biểu thị kết quả, ảnh hưởng của hành động phía trước Eg: The shop was closed, so I didn’t get any milk. Cửa hàng đã đóng, vì vậy tôi không mua được chút sữa nào.

2. Liên từ tương quan (Correlative conjunctions)

Liên từ tương quan có thể được coi như là cặp liên từ kết hợp. Đó là cặp liên từ đi với nhau, được dùng để liên kết các cụm từ hoặc mệnh đề có chức năng tương đương nhau về mặt ngữ pháp.

3. Liên từ phụ thuộc (Subordinating conjunctions)
