No, not exactly. All conjunctions are linking words, but not all linking words are conjunctions. Words like 'however' or 'therefore' are linking adverbs, not true conjunctions.

Coordinating conjunctions join equal parts (e.g., two independent clauses) while Subordinating conjunctions connect a dependent clause to an independent one.

  • Yes, we use a comma before a coordinating conjunction when joining two independent clauses.

For example: He was tired, but he kept working.

  • No comma is required when the parts are not complete sentences.

For example, He was tired but kept working.

Active voice is a structure of a sentence where the doer is the subject that performs the action expressed by the verb. Here, the emphasis will be on the doer, making the sentence clear and direct.

For example, Siya was riding a bicycle. Here the emphasis is on Siya instead of on the bicycle.

Active voice occurs when the subject performs an action. While on the other hand, passive voice occurs when the subject receives the action.  Normally it is recommended to use active voice in writing, as sentences get complicated in passive voice.
