But, I think it is possible to use but at the beginning of a sentence, as long as it isn't overused.

So again, the best simple rule-of-thumb is to avoid comma-after-so (indeed comma after any FANBOYS) at the beginning of a sentence, immediately following a semicolon, or immediately following a comma.

For instance, I ordinarily say "an" before "historical", because although I always pronounce "h" at the beginning of "historical", I believe that many people don't pronounce an "h" here.

Writers should examine such sentences with two questions in mind: (1) would the sentence and paragraph function just as well without the initial conjunction? (2) should the sentence in question be connected to the previous sentence?Sat, 04 Apr 2026 04:24:00 GMThttps://english.stackexchange.com/questions/250898/useage-of-this-and-that-at-the-beginning-of-the-sentenceThe word "this" at the beginning of a sentence is invaluable to me.
