Hey buddies, hoy veremos algunos conectores que podemos utilizar en nuestro discurso para indicar contraste- connectors to show contrast. Como por ejemplo:

ALTHOUGH / THOUGH / EVEN THOUGH

They have a similar meaning but position in the sentence is different in each of them. Observe:

Although we did our best, client was not satisfied with the results.
Client was not satisfied with the results, even though we did our best.
Client was not satisfied with the results. We did our best, though.

BUT / HOWEVER

We did our best. However, client was not happy about our performance.
We did our best, but client was not satisfied with the results.

IN SPITE OF / DESPITE

Again, these connectors have a similar meaning but you need different structures in the sentence.

In spite of + noun / (-ing) gerund
Despite + noun / (-ing) gerund

In spite of knowing the answer, he refused to help us.
In spite of the budget we could organize a good event.
Despite having serious problems, they are always smiling.
Despite their serious problems, they are always smiling.

You can also say in spite of / despite the fact that + subject + verb
Despite the fact that we had a low budget we could organize a good event.

Ahora ya puedes comenzar a utilizarlos y hacer que tus ideas queden más claras.
