What we learned today?
The markers are essential for our writing and speaking because they allow us to connect and express our ideas in a complex way. Concession and constructive markers are important to those texts or talks that involve argumentation and contrast points of view. However, we can use these markers in our daily lexicon to talk about problems or contrast our own ideas.
Concession markers
We use these markers to express our disagreement with a statment (English connection, 2023).

When do we use them?
These connectors are useful when we are having a debate or when we are writing an essay. They can help us refute or connect an argument.

Concession
Discourse markers
"...are words and phrases that are used to manage and organize the structure of discourse" (StudySmarter Editorial Team, 2022).
Even if we get a degree, most of us will not get a job. We got a degree, but we will not get a job yet. The first sentence talks about something that has not happened yet (get a degree); in the sentence, the first statement has happened (got a degree) but the second idea has not happened (get a job). Not only does the time of the verbs change the meaning of these sentences, but the connectors also change how the ideas are related.
Contrastive markers
They are used to connect two different ideas or highlight them. They can also be used to present new and unexpected information (What's up!, 2018).
