Sentence Connectors - Showing Opposition

Sentence connectors are words and phrases that connect sentences to help with understanding. Sentence connectors are also known as linking language.

In many grammar books, you will find information about sentence connectors when reading about subordinating conjunctions, coordinating conjunctions and so on. 

Once you have mastered the basics of correct usage in written English, you will want to express yourself in increasingly complex ways.
