Type: Coordinating conjunction/adverb

Structure: Used to connect two independent clauses (when used as a conjunction). When used as an adverb, it typically comes toward the end of a sentence.

Sentence structure:

• Clause 1 + , (comma) + yet + clause 2.

• Example (as conjunction): "She was tired, yet she kept working."

---------------------------

• Clause+yet

• Example (as adverb): "He hasn't finished the project yet."

• Note: "Yet" as a conjunction is typically used to express a stronger contrast than "but."

Also as an adverb it can be at the beginning of a sentence:

• Clause. /Yet/, /Clause.

  Example:

  • "The weather was terrible. Yet, they decided to go hiking."

Type: Preposition

Structure: "Despite" is followed by a noun, noun phrase, or gerund (-ing form).

Sentence structure:

• Despite + noun/noun phrase/gerund.

• Example: "Despite the rain, we went for a walk." or "Despite feeling tired, she worked late."

Type: Adverb

Structure: It usually comes before the main verb but after the subject. If the verb is "to be" or a modal verb, "still" goes after it.

Sentence structure:

• Subject + still + verb + (complement).

• Example: "She still lives in New York."

• With modals or "to be": "He is still tired." or "They can still win."

• Subject+Verb to Be+still+complement.

• Note: "Still" emphasizes the continuation of an action or state.

Type: Subordinating conjunction

Structure: It introduces a dependent (subordinate) clause, which is usually followed by an independent clause.

Sentence structure:

• Although + subject + verb, main clause.

• Example: "Although it was raining, we went for a walk."

• Note: The clause with "although" can appear before or after the main clause.
