Conjunctions are some of the shortest words in the English language, but they do some of the heaviest lifting. Words like and or but are popular conjunctions. They hook up words, clauses, and phrases, creating in-depth and complex sentences.

Conditional conjunctions are an interesting bunch, however. They’re found in sentences where one clause describes something that happened or will happen — if the condition of the other clause is satisfied. Conditional conjunctions can be a single word like if or several words like as long as. When placed at the beginning of the clause, these conjunctions describe the condition that needs to be met for something to happen.
