As

As for what is really bothering me, I'm not quite sure.

I've been curious as to what it's like once we are past in this painful life.

What are the functions of the 'as's' in the sentences above?

One more question.

Do I have to put the article 'the' in front a word I'm talking about? As in with the 'as' above? Thanks.

  • "As" is a conjunction and in your sentence, it is not needed because it adds no value to the sentence.
  • You can simply say " I am not sure what it is that bothering me", which is clear.
