Can someone tell me why "that" is considered a "subordinating" conjunction.
Let us take the following example:
He said that things were not going well.
The above sentence has two "Independent" clauses:
1. He said
2. Things were not going well
Since two "Independent" clauses are being connected, should "that" not be considered a "coordinating" conjunction.
Thanks.
