What type of conjunction is still?

"Still" is not a conjunction. It is an adverb.

Here's why:

* Conjunctions connect words, phrases, or clauses. They include words like "and", "but", "or", "because", "so", etc.

* Adverbs modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs. They provide information about time, place, manner, degree, etc.

"Still" indicates that something continues to be the case. For example:

* "I still love to play video games." (modifies the verb "love")

* "It's still raining outside." (modifies the adjective "raining")

* "He walked still faster than the others." (modifies the adverb "faster")
