I dont think thats the point shes making. Perhap's Im wrong. But i do'nt think so.

"But", is it acceptable, pedantically speaking, to start a sentence with that word?

[berryberry]

I think it can be weak to get pedantic on forum grammar as its people trying to talk and type. I think it is closer to an utterance than a sentence. But each to their own.

[bloonoo]

there are no rules anywhere in the english language that says you cannot start a sentence with 'but'. i learnt that on a training course the other day :)

Edited because I'm a tw@t.

[iaineasy]

these rogue @ signs seem to be getting everywhere too!

hugs

[Alec John Moore]

And I have to agree with you, bloonoo.

Can "And" or "But" Start a Sentence?

In our business writing classes, people often want an answer to this burning question:

Is it acceptable to begin a sentence with the word and or but?

The answer is yes. It is perfectly acceptable to start sentences with the conjunctions and and but. However, it is slightly informal. If formality is your goal, choose more formal language.

Informal:

But we hope to write an agreement today.

(no comma needed after but)

Formal:

However, we look forward to writing an agreement today.

Nevertheless, we look forward to completing the agreement today.

Informal:

And Clare knows how to write a good report.

(no comma needed after and)

Formal:

In addition, Clare is skilled in writing reports.

Furthermore, Clare is a skillful report writer.
