Usage notes
- Unlike most other conjunctions, aber need not be the first word of a clause: Ich bin dafür, er aber lehnt es ab. — “I’m in favour, but he rejects it.” In such a construction, aber might be considered an adverb, though the usual interpretation is that it is still a conjunction.
- After a negative, sondern is used to express a contrast, while aber expresses a gradation or nuance. Compare:
