complex linking words are those which used in complex sentences. A complex sentence has an independent clause and one or more dependent clauses. A complex sentence always has a subordinator, "complex linking words", such as because, since, after, although, or when or a relative pronoun such as that, who, or which.
I gave a few links in Post #6. There are some there.Would you mind giving some examples of more sophisticated and less obvious complex linking words ?
