Explanation and Etymology - (でも) demo

The word "でも" is a Japanese conjunction that can be translated as "but", "however" or "nevertheless". Its etymology is composed of two kanji: "de" (出) which means "to leave" or "appear" and "mo" (も) which means "too" or "even". Together these kanji form the word "でも" which is used to express an idea of contrast or opposition in a sentence. For example, "私は日本語が上手です。でも、漢字が苦手です。" (Watashi wa nihongo ga jouzu desu. Demo, kanji ga nigate desu.) which means "I'm good at Japanese. But, I'm bad at kanji."
