The meeting won't begin until 3 Horatio has finished his whiskey.
Although 4 Philip has a bad cold, he will still go to the sales convention.
Every morning, Jean reads a French newspaper while 5 he eats his breakfast.
1 since: "Since" is similar to "because" or "as" in this sentence to express reason. Susie and Brian often work together on press conferences because they have good presentation skills. In the letter, Luna does not want to leave the store without a DVD because she was looking forward to watching a film that evening.
2 so that: "So that" shares the same meaning as "in order that" or "with the purpose that". Icarus needs new batteries for his calculator to finish his report, or in other words, he cannot finish his report without them. "So that" can also mean "with the result that", for example: Bob got up very late, so that he missed his bus and was late for work.
3 until: As a subordinate conjunction, "until" shares a similar meaning with "before" in negative constructions. The meeting will start after Horatio has finished his whiskey. "Until" can also mean "up to the time of", for example: Bruno walked in the rain until he was so tired he had to sit down.
4 Although: "Although" shares the same meaning as "even though", "regardless of (the fact that)" or "in spite of (the fact that)", and is usually found at the beginning of clauses. The term introduces the contrast between Phillip having a bad cold, and his decision to attend the sales conference.
5 while: "While" is used to introduce two clauses that happen simultaneously, or a continuous action that is interrupted by another. Every morning, Jean reads the newspaper at the same time as he is eating his breakfast. "While" can also be used in a similar way to "even though" and "although", for example: While Bruno appreciated the gesture, he could not accept the prize.

Choose the most logical conjunction from the list below for each blank. Each conjunction is used only once.
so that | once | while | although
Every morning, Jean reads a French newspaper while 1 he eats his breakfast. He chooses a different newspaper every day so that 2 he gets a variety of perspectives. Once 3 he has finished eating, he stops reading, although 4 he often takes the paper with him to work.

1 while: "While" is used to introduce two clauses that happen simultaneously or a continuous action that is interrupted by another. Every morning, Jean reads the newspaper at the same time as he eats his breakfast. "While" can also be used in a similar way to "even though" and "although", for example: "While Bruno appreciated the gesture, he could not accept the prize".
2 so that: "So that", like "in order to", introduces the objective, aim or goal of an action. Obtaining a variety of perspectives is Jean's objective here: it is the reason why he chooses to read different newspapers. Another example: "I'm learning Japanese so that I can chat with my next-door neighbor, who is from Osaka".
3 Once: As a conjunction, "once" has a similar meaning to "as soon as" or "after". We are saying that after he finishes eating, Jean stops reading. Note that "once" is usually followed by a perfect tense, conjugated using "have". For example: "I usually do the washing-up once I have finished my dinner".
4 although: "Although" introduces a contrast between two ideas, and is similar in meaning to "in spite of", "despite" or "regardless of". Here, we are saying that Jean stops reading, but takes the newspaper to work (and perhaps continues reading later). Another example: "I don't normally eat cake, although I make an exception when it's someone's birthday".

1 so that: "So that" shares the same meaning as "in order that/to" or "with the purpose that". Icarus needs new batteries for his calculator in order to finish his report; in other words, he cannot finish his report without them. Another example: "I'm getting a haircut so that people at work will find me attractive".
2 until: As a subordinate conjunction, "until" shares a similar meaning with "before" in negative constructions. In other words, the meeting will start after Horatio has finished his whiskey (and will not start if he doesn't finish it). "Until" can also mean "up to the time of", for example: "Bruno walked in the rain until he was so tired that he had to sit down".
3 Although: "Although" shares the same meaning as "even though", "regardless of (the fact that)" or "in spite of (the fact that)", and is usually found at the beginning of clauses.

Übung 4
Choose between so that and in order.
Sophie: Bob, what on earth have you done?
Bob: I’ve painted the walls they don’t look so dull and depressing. Don’t you like it?
Sophie: Couldn’t you have phoned me to check whether I liked the color?
Bob: I thought everyone liked blood-red for a bedroom!
Sophie: Bob, what on earth have you done?
Bob: I’ve painted the walls they don’t look so dull and depressing. Don’t you like it?
Sophie: Couldn’t you have phoned me to check whether I liked the color?
Bob: I thought everyone liked blood-red for a bedroom!
Choose between so that and in order.
Sophie: Bob, what on earth have you done?
Bob: I’ve painted the walls so that 1 they don’t look so dull and depressing. Don’t you like it?
Sophie: Couldn’t you have phoned me in order 2 to check whether I liked the color?
Bob: I thought everyone liked blood-red for a bedroom!
Sophie: Bob, what on earth have you done?
Bob: I’ve painted the walls so that 1 they don’t look so dull and depressing. Don’t you like it?
Sophie: Couldn’t you have phoned me in order 2 to check whether I liked the color?
Bob: I thought everyone liked blood-red for a bedroom!
1 so that: We use "so that" to introduce the objective, aim or goal of an action. Making the walls look less dull and depressing was the objective of Bob painting them. Another example: "I telephone my mother every day so that she doesn't feel too lonely".
1 in order: Both "so that" and "in order" introduce the objective of an action. However, as a general rule, "in order" is followed by an infinitive with "to". We could say: "I painted the walls in order to make them look brighter".
2 in order: Sophie is talking about Bob telephoning her in order to check something: the action of "checking" would be the aim or goal of Bob telephoning Sophie. "In order" is followed by an infinitive verb with "to". Another example: "I turned the kettle on in order to boil water for the pasta".
2 so that: "So that" cannot be followed by an infinitive verb like "to check". It is generally followed by a conjugated verb, often introduced by an auxiliary or modal verb like "can", "may", "would" or "don't". For example: "Let's turn the volume up so that our neighbors can hear!".
Übung 5
Choose between so that and in order.
Bruno: We need to make our advertising different to stand out from our competitors.
Susie: I completely agree, Bruno. Perhaps we should use less conventional-looking models our customers see us as progressive.
Philip: Or we could use a wacky, dancing monkey people think we’re fun!
Bruno: I like your thinking, Philip. Let’s look into this monkey idea in more detail.
Bruno: We need to make our advertising different to stand out from our competitors.
Susie: I completely agree, Bruno. Perhaps we should use less conventional-looking models our customers see us as progressive.
Philip: Or we could use a wacky, dancing monkey people think we’re fun!
Bruno: I like your thinking, Philip. Let’s look into this monkey idea in more detail.
Choose between so that and in order.
Bruno: We need to make our advertising different in order 1 to stand out from our competitors.
Susie: I completely agree, Bruno. Perhaps we should use less conventional-looking models so that 2 our customers see us as progressive.
Philip: Or we could use a wacky, dancing monkey so that 3 people think we’re fun!
Bruno: I like your thinking, Philip. Let’s look into this monkey idea in more detail.
Bruno: We need to make our advertising different in order 1 to stand out from our competitors.
Susie: I completely agree, Bruno. Perhaps we should use less conventional-looking models so that 2 our customers see us as progressive.
Philip: Or we could use a wacky, dancing monkey so that 3 people think we’re fun!
Bruno: I like your thinking, Philip. Let’s look into this monkey idea in more detail.
1 in order: Both "so that" and "in order" introduce the objective, aim or goal of an action. The difference is that "in order" is followed by an infinitive verb with "to". Another example: "Let's introduce a discount on this product in order to attract more customers".
1 so that: "So that" cannot be used before an infinitive verb such as "to stand out". Bruno could say: "We need to make our advertising different so that we stand out from our competitors" (or "so that we can stand out from our competitors").
2 so that: For Susie, Delavigne's customers seeing the company as progressive is the aim or desired outcome of using less conventional-looking models. "So that" is often followed by an auxiliary or modal verb such as "could" or "may", but it doesn't have to be, as you can see in this sentence. An example: "Our education policy was created so that all children might have equal access to good schools".
2 in order: As a general rule, "in order" is followed by an infinitive with "to". We could say: "We should use less conventional-looking models in order to give ourselves a progressive image".
3 so that: Philip's sentence is very similar in construction to Susie's. For Philip, customers seeing Delavigne as fun is the objective or goal of using the dancing monkey in the advertising. Another example: "I shouted loudly so that my son would hear me".
3 in order: We can't use "in order" before a conjugated verb like "(people) think". "In order" is generally followed immediately by the infinitive plus "to". We could say: "Or we could use a dancing monkey in order to make people see us as fun!".
