The French Quarter, also known as the Vieux Carré, is the oldest neighborhood in the city of New Orleans. After New Orleans (La

Nouvelle-Orléans in French) was founded in 1718 by Jean-Baptiste Le Moyne de Bienville, the city developed around the Vieux Carré ("Old Square" in English), a central square. The district is more commonly called the French Quarter today, or simply "The Quarter," related to changes in the city with American immigration after the Louisiana Purchase. Most of the extant historic buildings were constructed either in the late 18th century, during the city's period of Spanish rule, or were built during the first half of the 19th century, after U.S. annexation and statehood. The district as a whole has been designated as a National Historic Landmark, with numerous contributing buildings that are separately deemed significant. It is a prime tourist destination in the city, as well as attracting local residents. Because of its distance from areas where the levee was breached during Hurricane Katrina in 2005 as well as the strength and height of the nearest Mississippi River Levees in contrast to other levees along the canals and lakefront, it suffered relatively light damage from floodwater as compared to other areas of the city and the greater region.

Hi I'm learning English and I wanna know the difference among as long as, but, except and barring to refer to exception..
k0ka [10]
As long as isn't really used for exceptions.
Well, maybe in things like "You can have ice cream <em>as long as </em>you eat your veggies." Then it's a little like saying "You can have ice cream <em>if </em>you eat your veggies"

But 
"You can have ice cream, <em>but </em>you need to eat your veggies first."

Except
"Everyone can have ice cream, except for Gally"

Barring
I'm not really sure about this one...


Um, I hope this helps!
