also,	moreover,	what is more,	as a matter of fact,	in all honesty,
and,	furthermore,	in addition (to this),	besides (this),	to tell the truth,
or,	in fact,	actually,	to say nothing of,
too,	let alone,	much less	additionally,
nor,	alternatively,	on the other hand,	not to mention (this),

Emphasis:

even more,

above all,

indeed,

more importantly,

Concession:

but even so,	nevertheless,	even though,	on the other hand,	admittedly,
however,	nonetheless,	despite (this),	notwithstanding (this),	albeit
(and) still,	although,	in spite of (this),	regardless (of this),
(and) yet,	though,	granted (this),	be that as it may,

]

Dismissal:

either way,	whichever happens,	in either event,	in any case,	at any rate,

Summation:

as was previously stated,	so,	consequently,	in summary,	all in all,
to make a long story short,	thus,	as I have said,	to sum up,	overall,
as has been mentioned,	then,	to summarize,	to be brief,	briefly,
