How do you start a sentence with word other than and?

You can start a sentence with any word you like, as long as it makes grammatical sense. "Other than" is a prepositional phrase, and it usually functions as a conjunction. This means it connects two phrases or clauses together. To use it at the beginning of a sentence, you need to create a structure that makes sense. Here are some examples:

Using "Other than" as a conjunction:

* Other than the obvious dangers of the jungle, the expedition faced no major obstacles.

* Other than a few minor scratches, the car was undamaged.

Using "Other than" as a prepositional phrase:

* Other than his own family, he had no one to turn to.

* Other than the occasional rustle in the leaves, the forest was silent.

Using a different word altogether:

* The sun shone brightly, illuminating the mountains in the distance.

* Despite the rain, the picnic was a success.

* As the sun began to set, the sky turned a vibrant orange.

The key is to choose a word or phrase that creates a clear and logical sentence structure.
