英語有100萬個單詞,而連接詞卻只有70個左右,它們總是非常高頻率的出現(xiàn)在各類文章、對話、電郵等英語實際溝通中。我們常見的表示轉(zhuǎn)折的過渡詞有:but,still,yet,however,nevertheless,nonetheless,on?the?contrary,in?spite?of,even?though等。
下面我們先來看一下這五個常用的表示轉(zhuǎn)折的連詞都是誰:
but
(屬并列連詞表轉(zhuǎn)折,上下分句所述情況相反,用在句中,后不加逗號)但是,可是
?Life is limited but there is no limit to learning.
while
(屬并列連詞表對比,但程度不及st詛l強烈)雖然,盡管,而 
she is very diligent,while he is very lazy. 
yet
(屬副詞作并列連詞用,語氣比but強烈,可與與and,but連用)而,然而,可是 
He said he would be late,yet he arrived on time.
however
(屬副詞兼作并列連詞用,表轉(zhuǎn)折比but稍松弛,可位于句中首、尾〕用逗號分開)可是,然而
It's raining hard, however,I think we should go out. 
still
(屬副詞作連詞用)盡管如此,但仍然如故(常用于后一分句,可以跟逗號)仍然
I didn't win the game still it's been a good experience.
though
(作副詞用,一般用在句末)(口語)可是,不過,然而
It is hard work,I enjoy it though.
 
但在實際語言應(yīng)用中這些詞區(qū)別甚微,有時可互為轉(zhuǎn)。
