Question

I think whenever I use long words as however and so on to separate clauses it goes like this.
xxx; however, xxx
but what's the case with with still? is there a comma to be used?

Answer 2

What exactly do you mean?
''However, it continued to rain.
Is that a good example for what you're saying?
I'm just trying to follow your train of thought right now...

Answer 3

however can be used between to complete sentences when separated by a semicolon
it looks like this normally,
She looked out the window; however, she didn't bother to see where the sound came from.

there is a comma after the word however

I am wondering if it would be justifier to place a comma after the word still in a similar sentence constellation since the word still has only one syllable
I believe that there is a rule

Answer 8

However is used for starting a sentence, and semicolons separate two sentences that are related to form a compound sentence.
She looked out the window; however, she didn't bother to see where the sound came from. That is a compound sentence.
She looked out the window. However, she didn't bother to see where the sound came from. That is two separate sentences, and it is still correct.
See what I'm saying? :)

Answer 9

yeah absolutely
I was wondering if I were to replace however with the word still if the comma would be still correct.
Which one is correct?
She heard a noise; still, she continued cleaning.
She heard a house; still she continued cleaning.

Answer 10

Well a house isn't something you hear, so the first choice is correct.
