Example sentences

虽然……但是…… is pronounced suīrán…dànshì… and means “although… but…”. It is one of the words in the HSK 2 vocabulary, a level of the Hanyu Shuiping Kaoshi, China’s standardised Chinese proficiency test. Recognising a word on a page and recalling it when you need it are different skills, and only the second survives a conversation — which is why LexiTrail shows you 虽然……但是…… again just before you would have forgotten it, rather than on a fixed schedule.
