English term or phrase: whereas
Czy tłumacząc whereas jako natomiast można go używać na początku zdania?
Men are stubborn, unlike women, want to show that they are the best. Whereas female employees are more likely to work out compromises.
Czy powinnam te zdania połączyć whereas z przecinkiem? ale z kolei wtedy wydaje mi się, ze zdanie jest za długie.
Będe wdzięczna za każdą podpowiedź :)

neutral  Polangmar: Zdanie podrzędne nie może funkcjonować samodzielnie (chyba że to specjalny zabieg stylistyczny, ale to inna rzecz). http://www.ldoceonline.com/dictionary/whereas , http://je.pl/auny . || Chyba różnie zrozumieliśmy pytanie.

  -> Rozumiem, że nie dopatrzyłeś się "specjalnego zabiegu stylistycznego" w oryginale i "wyprostowałeś go" aby lepiej pasował do założonej koncepcji.
