Learn English Writing – Conjunctions – Part 1


00:00:10yes I’m wondering with British Library

00:00:12because today we’re doing a reading

00:00:14lesson no I just wants the rating one

00:00:17it’s a writing lesson today oh why we

00:00:20new library this is a writing it if

00:00:23we’re doing a writing lesson we’ve gone

00:00:25to Shakespeare’s Globe think of a

00:00:40sentence anything why not

00:00:44tom is sexy nice okay how about

00:00:48something else something negative about

00:00:52Tom like he smells a fish it’s true how

00:00:58can i connect these sentences I could

00:01:01say however example Thomas sexy however

00:01:06he smells of fish however is the same as

00:01:11but and this lesson is about different

00:01:15conjunction words to replace but and

00:01:17this will help your writing become a

00:01:20little bit more sexy so what other words

00:01:26can I use to replace but I can say

00:01:29although like although Thomas sexy he

00:01:33smells of fish remember to put the comma

00:01:36after the first sentence and the

00:01:39pronunciation is like this although so

00:01:45now you say it although be careful of

00:01:50the move sound the th the tongue between

00:01:54the teeth mmm although although can be

00:01:58at the start or the middle between the

00:02:02two sentences so I could say tom is sexy

00:02:06although he smells a fish also I can say

00:02:11even though again start or middle is

00:02:15okay and at the end of the sentence I

00:02:19could say though for example Thomas sexy

00:02:23he smells a fish though in the middle we

00:02:27can put however or having said that

00:02:31having said that is is good it’s nice

00:02:34it’s like to think again or on second

00:02:39thought so all of these conjunction

00:02:43words basically mean but

00:02:46try to use them in a sentence some

00:02:51things to remember only use one of these

00:02:55conjunction words to connect the

00:02:57sentence and follow the color code of

00:03:00the conjunction words for the placement

00:03:03of commas okay so try your own sentence
