Conjunctions

• Conjunctions help in joining two or more sentences. They are also known as 'joining words.'

• In the given question, both sentences show contradictory meanings. Therefore they have been joined by the conjunction 'but.'

• Conjunctions like 'although,' 'though,' 'in spite,' and 'despite' can be used as alternatives of 'but' in this sentence.

• Since the subject of both sentences is the same, it has been omitted in the second sentence.
