Contrast Clauses: Although, However, and Though

Contrast words connect two opposing ideas, but they require different punctuation and placement within a sentence. For instance, you might write, "Although the food looked terrible, it tasted great," or use a semicolon for a transition: "The food looked terrible; however, it tasted great." You can even place the contrast at the end of an idea: "It tasted great, though."

In this challenge, you will practice placing these contrast words correctly while navigating a variety of entertaining scenarios. You'll help a food critic write a savage restaurant review, decode a passive-aggressive note from a roommate about a neon green sofa, and excuse a missing assignment because your cat walked across the keyboard.

This challenge features 12 questions in a mix of single-choice, multi-choice, drop-down, and drag-and-drop formats to test your grammar and punctuation skills.
