still, others vs still others

Both "still, others" and "still others" are correct, but they are used in different contexts. "Still, others" is used when the word "still" is being used as an adverb to indicate continuation or persistence, while "still others" is used to refer to additional or different people or things. The presence or absence of the comma changes the meaning and usage of the phrase.

still, others

This phrase is correct when "still" is used as an adverb to indicate continuation or persistence.

This phrase is used when you want to emphasize that in addition to the mentioned group, there are further people or things. The comma after "still" helps to separate it as an adverb from the word "others."

Examples:

  • Some people left early; still, others stayed to enjoy the party.
  • The first group finished the project, but still, others were working on it.
  • She has visited many countries, but still, others remain on her travel list.
