This first example we have seen already in 14.2.4
Some Important Conjunctions - aber. If we now check
whether the position of the verb changes we'll notice
that this is not the case.
aber
= but
Er
glaubt es.
He
believes so.
>
Er weiß es
nicht.
He doesn't know.
Er glaubt es, aber
er weiß es nicht.
He believes so,
but doesn't
know.
Er kauft sich ein
Auto.
He buys a car.
>
Er hat
keinen Führerschein.
He doesn't have
a drivers licence.
Er kauft sich ein
Auto, aber
er hat keinen Führerschein.
He buys a car
but
he doesn't have a drivers licence.
And then there are some other conjunctions that do
not cause a change of the position of the verb, e.g.
denn.
