Grammar alert! 🚨Watch out for the "despite" dilemma—it's a preposition, not a conjunction. Native speakers can stumble too! Examples to avoid and fixes:
🚫 "They can't get good medical attention, despite they need it badly."
✅ "Despite his objections, Gov. LePage lets the budget fix take effect."

Tip: Correct bloopers by adding "the fact" after "despite" or swap it with "although." Despite's a multitasker, but today, it's all about its preposition prowess.
