WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN YET AND BUT IN ENGLISH CONJUCTIONS
Dear student
But and Yet can both be used interchangeably. However, the difference lies in the degree of contrast.
But is used to compare two parts of a sentence that are contrasting.
For example: She is poor, but she is happy.
Yet shows a strong contrast, between two parts of a sentence.
For example: She is very ill, yet she smokes everyday.
