I think we can also say: Salim studied hard. He did not succeed, however (or though).
Am I right? |

'Though' seems to be more natural in this sentence, to me anyway.
Lets see what the experts say. :wink: _________________ No comment |

There were two posts regarding this question. I have already given my idea, but I'll repeat it here.
However (no matter how) hard he studied, Salim usually failed.
