What is the difference between sino que and si no que ?Feel free to just provide example sentences.
- French (France) Near fluent
Obviously wrong
Explanation is not enough
Written in a language I can't understand
Answer is not related to the question
Other reason
- Spanish (Spain)
Sino que -> it's a contraposition. El no estudia sino que trabaja. He doesn't study unless he works.
Si no -> it's a conditional. Si no estudias no aprobarás el examen. If you don't study you will not pass the exam.
In the second one the word "que" it's unnatural.

@mxmhos It's good BUT the <<Él no estudia sino que trabaja>> would translate to <<He doesn't study, he works>>

@Estyboi2552 yes could be but with "sino" you are putting a strong change beetween both parts of the 2 phrases. But both mean the same and is a good translation

What I tried to change is unless because it isn't the word to translate that in my opinion

@Estyboi2552 yap your right but O don't know other word in English to explain the contraposition. I believe your translation is better but it doesn't show all the meaning in spanish.
