but; although

句子 + が + 句子

This が connects two clauses and marks a contrast or unexpected turn. It sounds softer than でも.

Softer and somewhat more written than でも; useful for polite lead-ins.

雨が降っていますが、出かけます。

It is raining, but I will go out.

Do not confuse it with the subject particle が; contrastive が connects two clauses.

が between two clauses often works like a soft 'but.'
