 Definition
• Nevertheless is a word used to connect partially
contradictory statements. They are not completely
opposite, still nevertheless is a better option in place of
'but' in some cases.
• Nevertheless is an adverb that tells the reader that
something happened even though there is something
that might have stopped it from happening.
"Nevertheless" is commonly used as a conjunctive adverb.
Where do we put nevertheless in the sentence?

• Nevertheless can follow but:

Competition was tough last year, but nevertheless our sales increased.

• It can also begin a new sentence or follow a semi-colon:

Competition was tough last year. Nevertheless, our sales increased.
Competition was tough last year; nevertheless, our sales increased.

• In spoken English we sometimes use nevertheless at the end of a

sentence:
Suarez has a bad disciplinary record and has missed a lot of games, but he’s a
great player nevertheless.
