Though my acquaintance with Maya was short , yet it sowed a deep interest in Tibet.
Explanation:
- Conjunctions are a part of speech that join two or more words,phrases,clauses or sentences.
- Sometimes conjunctions are formed by a pair of words. They are then called correlative conjunctions.
- Correlative conjunctions are usually associated with verbs in subjunctive mood.
- They refer to two contrasting ideas in two different clauses.
- In the given sentence there are two clauses- 1. My acquaintance with Maya was short , 2. but it sowed a deep interest in Tibet.
- In these two clauses short and deep interest are two contrasting ideas.
- To join them in one sentence asserting the contrast the correlative conjunction 'though....yet' is used.
- The sentence thus becomes: Though my acquaintance with Maya was short , yet it sowed a deep interest in Tibet.
