Spanish Grammar - Adverbial Conjunctions

I would like to introduce you to some of the commonly used conjunctions in spanish.Ah wait.. but what exactly is a conjunction, I learnt them during my primary school let me recollect.
A conjunction could be a word which links words or phrases. It would give you the answers for why, or, but, when and because i.e y , o, pero,cuando and porque respectively.

Some of the conjunctions that I could think of are

Conjunction Translation
a fin de que so that
a condición de que on the condition that
a menos que unless
antes de que before
con tal de que provided that
en caso de que in case
para que so that
sin que without

Some of the conjunctions that deal with time

Conjunction Translation
a medida que as,according as
cuando when
dado que granted that,in case that
después de que after
en cuanto as soon as
hasta que until
luego que as soon as
mientras while
por mucho que no matter how much,however much
