Always put a comma after 'Namun', 'Oleh karena itu', and 'Adapun' when they start a sentence. It's the hallmark of a C2 writer.

🎯

The 'Justru' Power Move

In a debate, wait for your opponent to finish their point, then start your response with 'Justru itulah...' (That is precisely why...). It immediately turns their argument against them.

🎯

The 'Pun' Space

Always put a space in 'apa pun', 'siapa pun', and 'mana pun'. Only join it for words like 'walaupun' and 'meskipun'.

Preguntas frecuentes (6)

Mostly, yes, but 'Namun' is better at the start of a sentence, while 'tetapi' is better for connecting two clauses within a sentence.
No, it is also used in academic writing and formal speeches to add emphasis to a statement of fact.

Namun is the most common for contrast.
Usually no. 'Justru' requires a prior context or statement to flip. If you start with it, your listener will ask 'Justru what?'
