YET as a conjunction I know how to use YET as an adverb but I have issues with using YET as a conjunction: The weather was cold, yet bright and sunny. Her advice seems strange, yet I believe she’s right. Are "however", "nevertheless", and "but" synonyms to "yet" in these examples? Can I interchange them? Or will it sound unnatural for native speakers if I interchange them? I had found out this link, yet (but? however?nevertheless) it did not help much http://www.macmillandictionary.com/dictionary/british/yet Thank you.

Yes, you can interchange those words. If someone said either of those sentences with any of those words, I would not think that it was wrong. Also, in the second sentence, you could use "although". "Her advice seems strange, although I believe she's right."

Thank you again, Brad C! I will remember it!

All of them are correct except "nevertheless." This conjunction should only be used when a contrast is almost illogical or extreme. Example: "Our company is losing money in China, nevertheless we're going to open new offices in Beijing and Shanghai."
