1. but 连词，“但是”。用来引出微弱的反对意见，是口语中的常用词。例如：
I was going to write, but I lost your address.
我本来要写信的，可是把你的地址弄丢了。
2. however ①副词，“可是；不过；然而；无论如何；不论到什么程度”dlna是什么。however比but的词义还要弱些，并不直接引出相反的意见，因此，常用作插入语。例如：
I’d like to go with you; however, my hands are full.
我很想和你一块儿去，可是我忙不过来。
② 连词，“不管用什么方法；无论什么方式”。例如：
o ringHowever I cook eggs, the child still refus to eat them.
what about now不管我用什么方法做鸡蛋，小孩还是不肯吃。
3. although 连词，“虽然；尽管”。although与though大致相同，口语中though比较常用。
例如：
Mr. Hall understands that although maths has always been easy for his son, yet this problem is not easy for him.
Hall节拍英文先生明白，尽管数学对他儿子来说一直很容易，但这道题对于他来说并不简单。
4. while 连词，“但；却；然而”。它表示对比或相反的情况。例如：
