Subordinating Conjunction

Subordinating Conjunction:

They are used to connect two groups of words or two statements, one of which is dependent on the other. Some subordinating conjunctions are though / although, since, after, till / until, as, because, before, if, while, when, whether, lest, as if, as soon as, as long as, as though, than,etc.

Subordinating conjunctions join the main (or independent) and subordinate (or dependent) clauses together.

Main clauses are clauses that can stand on their own as complete sentences. Subordinating clauses , on the other hand, do not make sense on their own. So, they need to be attached to a main clause with a subordinating conjunction in order to be considered grammatically correct.
