例句:
1. I enjoy eating chocolate, however, I'm always too full after a few bites. (我喜欢吃巧克力,但是几口之后我就感到太饱了。)
2. Despite his age, he is incredibly fit, however, he does suffer from arthritis. (尽管他年纪大了,但他仍然非常健康,然而他确实患有关节炎。)
3. His behaviour doesn't really tally with how he's described, however, this could be explained by personal preferences. (他的行为和描述有些出入,但这可以解释为个人偏好的差异。)

除了以上五个例句,“however”在句子中还可以用作连词引导转折从句。例句如:
6. You're not dressed appropriately for the meeting, however, I understand you were running late. (你穿的不是很适合开会,然而,我知道你有点赶时间。)
使用“however”的时候,需要注意的是不要将它与“moreover”混淆。尽管两者都表示对比或转折关系,但是“moreover”一般用于句末。例如,“You didn't study hard enough, but you are young and can improve yourself more.” 和 “However, there are also other reasons for my lack of interest in participating.” 两句话中都使用了“however”,但是后一句更适合使用“moreover”。总的来说,“however”是英语中使用非常频繁的词语,它在句中的正确使用对于表达意思和逻辑关系非常重要。
