This page lists 5 conjunctions that start with G, running from “Given that” to “Granted”. They are phrase conjunctions and short concessive words that link a main clause to a fact, reason, or admitted point. Writers and speakers use them to explain why something happens, to acknowledge a fair point, or to set up a contrast.
