🧩 The Power of 'Connecting Words'

To move from A2 to B2, you must stop writing sentences like a list. A2 students say: "The movie started slowly. It earned 1.15 crore." A B2 student connects these ideas to show how they relate.

Look at these 'Bridge Words' from the text:

  1. However \rightarrow Used when the second part of the sentence surprises us or changes direction.

    • Text: "The film started slowly... However, revenue increased over time."
    • B2 Tip: Use this instead of always using 'but'. Place it at the start of a sentence followed by a comma for a more professional tone.
  2. Consequently \rightarrow Used to show a logical result (Cause \rightarrow Effect).

    • Text: "Consequently, by the sixth day, the total... reached ₹9.81 crore."
    • B2 Tip: This is the 'grown-up' version of 'so'. Use it when you want to sound more academic or formal.
  3. Even though \rightarrow Used to acknowledge a problem that didn't stop the main action.

    • Text: "...reached ₹9.81 crore, even though it faced competition."
    • B2 Tip: This creates a complex sentence, which is a requirement for B2 level. It shows you can handle two opposing ideas in one breath.
