Answer 1

Answer:

but is the answer ............

Answer 2

The correct answer is: I liked to play but my friends like to study.

• 'But' is used to introduce an additional statement that is usually contradictory.
• For example, Rekha is good at classical dancing, but she is not very good at dancing.
• 'But' means - on the contrary, except, yet, and except that.
• From the sentence, we get to know that the speaker likes to play and on the contrary his/her friends like to study.
• Hence the most appropriate word to use here is 'but' which indicates opposition or contrast. It is used here as a conjunction to combine two opposing ideas/events.
• The correct answer is: I liked to play but my friends like to study.
