concessive

[hanuman_2000]

Hello,

I am not able to understand the meaning of 'concessive ' in the 'concessive clause'.

I know that we generally use 'though', 'whereas' e.t.c for a concessive clause.


I have looked up the word in many dictionaries but unable to retrieve the meaning in this context.

Does it mean 'contrast'?

Thanks.

Basically, yes.
