Konu: Re: And another thing......

Artful Dodger: one of those "rules" that really isn't

Yup, exactly. The rule is a myth and doesn't make any sense.

Pedro Martínez: But it isn't a myth. It's not an exact rule, but generally it is taught in English Language lessons that in some cases such uses of "but" and "and" just look stupid. That is.. it is taught in British English Language lessons!!

Artful Dodger: To a certain extent, I do agree that the use of a preposition at the end of a sentence might look inappropriate. In particular legalese tends to use, for example, “change in which we believe“ instead of “change we believe in”.

But, teachers who teach that a conjunction at the beginning of a sentence looks stupid are just stupid themselves…
