I don't really understand your question, but from src/test/regress/sql/join.sql
some examples of use are:

--
-- Outer joins
-- Note that OUTER is a noise word
--

SELECT '' AS "xxx", * FROM J1_TBL LEFT OUTER JOIN J2_TBL USING (i);

SELECT '' AS "xxx", * FROM J1_TBL LEFT JOIN J2_TBL USING (i);

SELECT '' AS "xxx", * FROM J1_TBL RIGHT OUTER JOIN J2_TBL USING (i);

SELECT '' AS "xxx", * FROM J1_TBL RIGHT JOIN J2_TBL USING (i);

SELECT '' AS "xxx", * FROM J1_TBL FULL OUTER JOIN J2_TBL USING (i);

SELECT '' AS "xxx", * FROM J1_TBL FULL JOIN J2_TBL USING (i);

SELECT '' AS "xxx", * FROM J1_TBL LEFT JOIN J2_TBL USING (i) WHERE (k = 1);

SELECT '' AS "xxx", * FROM J1_TBL LEFT JOIN J2_TBL USING (i) WHERE (i = 1);
