conj.

例句:

鑒于上學(xué)有一定的預(yù)見性,教育卻往往能帶來意外的發(fā)現(xiàn)。
二、詞義辨析:
but,however,still,yet,nevertheless,while,whereas
這些連詞或副詞均含“但是,可是,然而,而”之意。 but口語常用詞,語氣較強(qiáng),泛指與前述情況相反。 however表轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系,語氣稍弱于but,連接性也弱一些,因而常作插入語。 still語氣強(qiáng),多用于肯定句或疑問句。指盡管作出讓步,采取措施或表示反對,但情況仍然如故,無所改變。 yet常用于否定句,語氣比still稍強(qiáng)。指不管作出多大努力或讓步,仍達(dá)不到預(yù)期的結(jié)果。 nevertheless指盡管作出完全讓步,也不會發(fā)生任何影響。 while表對比,一般可與whereas換用,但程度弱一些。 whereas表對比,一般可與while互換。
