There is a number of relationships that we can create like addition, contrast, among others, and there are many words and expressions that we can use to express these relationships. In this post, I present some words and expressions that we can use to express the relationship of <em>contrast<\/em> in Arabic. Some of the contrast connectors in English are \u2018but\u2019, \u2018whereas\u2019, \u2018despite\u2019, etc.<\/p>\n<p>The most commonly used connector in Arabic is probably (\u0644\u0643\u0646) \u2018but\u2019.
