Please be patient

Our volunteers look into many questions every day; sometimes it takes them a little while to answer.

Pro tip: you can rename the thread title with `.tr <thread name>`

Make it descriptive, including relevant context, but also to the point. This way you improve your chances of getting a more relevant and specific answer.

"Pourtant" is sort of similar to "however". You could say "Il m'a dit qu'il viendrai à la réunion; pourtant, je ne l'ai pas vu." A similar French word would be the conjunction "or" which is pretty much used the same way. "Il m'a dit qu'il viendrai; or, je ne l'ai pas vu."

Okay, thanks

But I remember seeing it used also at the end of the sentence

Like... "Il est très connu pourtant !"

[old perch]

Yeah it can be used like that as well

[leaden stag]

Yeah, can you tell me an equivalent word to it in English?

I heard people translating it to "though", but are there any other words?

[old perch]

"Though" works, it's pretty much the same idea

[leaden stag]

Okay, thank you very much
