Advanced Connectives in Chinese

At C1, connectives must do more than link sentences — they shape logic, register, and flow. Here are key categories:

Additive / progressive (递进):

  • 不仅……而且…… — not only... but also...
  • 甚至 — even (escalation)
  • 更重要的是 — more importantly
  • 况且 — besides / moreover

Contrast and concession (转折 / 让步):

  • 尽管……但是…… — although... yet...
  • 固然……但…… — granted that... but...
  • 然而 — however (formal)
  • 即便如此 — even so

Cause and effect (因果):

  • 正因如此 — precisely because of this
  • 由此可见 — from this we can see
  • 以至于 — so much so that
  • 为此 — for this reason

Hypothesis (假设):

  • 倘若 — if / supposing that (formal)
  • 一旦 — once / as soon as
  • 否则 — otherwise

Conclusion (总结):

  • 综上所述 — in summary
  • 由此得出结论 — from this we conclude
  • 总而言之 — all in all

Key insight: Many learners overuse 但是 and 所以. Replace them with the formal alternatives above in written Chinese.

Veelgemaakte fouten

  • 他很努力,但是他失败了,所以他很难过。
    尽管他付出了很多努力,结果仍未能如愿,这令他深感失落。

    Overusing 但是 and 所以 creates a choppy, childlike style; use concessive and cause-effect structures with formal connectives

  • 综上所述,这很重要。
    综上所述,这一议题对政策制定具有深远影响。

    综上所述 is a formal summary marker that requires a substantive conclusion, not a vague statement

  • 倘若你努力,你会成功。
    倘若能坚持不懈,成功的可能性将大大提升。

    倘若 is formal and typically used in written Chinese with a more measured, impersonal tone
