Using connectors to show contrast

Connectors

Connectors or linkers can help you join two or more ideas (sentences). Instead of using single sentences, you can connect them in a logical way.

Connectors to show contrast

Some connectors are used to show contrast in sentences that express different ideas.

  • At the same time
  • But
  • In spite of
  • However
  • Whereas
  • On the other hand
  • While
  • Otherwise
  • Yet
  • Unlike
  • Apart from
  • Conversely
