Considering that the connective function of connective endings was not only syntactic connection of clauses, the author proposed that the teaching and learning of connective relation should include the instruction of the use of connective endings as well as connective adverbs. In order to instruct connective endings as a cohesion that did connective function in a text, the author formulated a stepwise process how the connection and selection of connective endings were determined. In spite of the importance of the coherence and logic of a text, the instruction of connective endings that play a important role in basic logical relation of a sentence should be emphasized as a principal factor for practical language uses. Therefore, for the teaching and learning of a mother tongue, the function and usage of connective endings as well as connective adverbs in a text should be instructed preferentially.
