💧 while, whilst, whereas, as


🤔 Can you explain while, whilst, whereas, as?

🤔 Either can be used to connect two sentences, but I am not sure how to identify them and quite often I use them wrongly.

🔠 Here's the simplified explanation:

🔂While and whilst are the same, but whilst is a bit more formal (according to one famous grammar book).

🔂Whereas is always used for contrast. While/whilst can be used for contrast, OR to mean "at the same time".

🔂As can mean "because" or "exactly at the moment when".

Try to write an example sentence using each of these words.
