Conversely意思

"Conversely" is a word used to indicate an opposite or reverse relationship between two statements or sets of circumstances. It suggests that if one thing is true, the opposite must also be true. It often introduces a statement that contrasts with the previous one. Here's an example:

"If you increase the temperature, the pressure will increase. Conversely, if you decrease the temperature, the pressure will decrease."

In this example, "conversely" is used to introduce a statement that contradicts the previous one. If the first statement is true, the second must also be true because they are opposite outcomes based on the change in temperature.
