I'm currently enrolled in a very uninformative German 101 course, and I was wondering if you all could help me. I understand the basic concepts of word order in sentences (verb comes second; modal infinitives come at the end; etc.), but I'm wondering what you do if you want to connect two sentences with "und."
Example (disclaimer: may contain mistakes): Im Herbst bin ich zur Schule in Michigan, und meine Woche ist sehr unterschieldlich.
So, my question is what are the rules about sentences like that which come after conjunctions? Also, are there any other word-order rules that I am missing, like whether a general location (zur Schule) comes before or after a geographic location (in Michigan)?
Thank you all in advance.
