<![CDATA[In ESL context, learners may have less attention to the use of conjunctions. In fact, the use of conjunctions in L2 learnersâ writings is crucial since it is one type of cohesive devices. This paper aims to find the cohesive devices of conjunctions used by the learners. Through analyzing eight learnersâ essays, the writer found 37 forms and 12 types of conjunctions in the learnersâ essays. The most significant form of conjunctions wasâandâ, whereas the most significant types of conjunction as âadditionâ. Moreover, the writer also found some inappropriate use of conjunctions, which are grouped into five, namely, unclassified, wrong mechanism, L1 interference, wrong forms of conjunctions, and grammatical error. DOI: https://doi.org/10.24071/llt.2015.180106]]>
