whereas
On the contrary
Whereas, a formal conjunction, has two main uses.
In ordinary use it introduces a contrasting clause, somewhat like although does: The old lodge dates from the early 1600s, whereas the new house was completed in 1998.
Whereas has a specialized use to set out the reasons for something in laws, proclamations, and decrees, where it usually begins a sentence.
