Answer: "But" is a (2) coordinating word.

Explanation: A coordinating conjunction is a word used to connect an independent clause, that is to say a clause that expresses a full thought, to another independent clause. "But" is considered to be a coordinating conjunction. For instance,<u> in the sentence provided, "but" is connecting the independent clause "The young girl wanted to sit in the front row" to another independent clause: "the seats were all occupied"</u>.

In this sentence the word "but" is a coordinating word.

There are seven coordinated conjuctions which are and, but, for, nor, or, so, and yet. Coordinating conjunctions connect words, phrases, and clauses. They connect sweeping ideas together, creating cohesive, comprehensive ideas. In the case of BUT, it shows contract between the first idea and the second one. In this case the contradictions lies in the fact that the girl wanted to sit in a place where there were no more available sears.

Isabella asked."Oh, my child, I am thinking of your brothers and sisters that have beensold away from me," her mother replied.Soon after, Isabella too was separated from her mother. She was auctioned 1—along with other slaves, horses, and cattle—andpurchased for $100. She was sold again and again, from master tomaster, until she was emancipated in 1828.Students of history know Isabella better by the name she chose as anadult—Sojourner Truth. Truth was an abolitionist. She spoke outagainst slavery. But what some people may not know is that Truth wasone of thousands of slaves who were bought, sold, and forced to dolabor in the North."Many people are surprised when you talk about slavery in the North,"Alan Singer, a professor of education at Hofstra University, told SeniorEdition. "We associate slavery with the South, even though the biggestimporter of slaves—after South Carolina—was New York City."Historians are beginning to bring slavery in the North into the spotlight.The New York Historical Society recently presented an exhibition onslavery in that state. Singer, who travels the country to talk to studentsabout slavery in the North, wants people to remember that slavery wasa national institution.The slave trade helped finance the Industrial Revolution in manymajor Northern cities, such as Boston and New York City. The Industrial Revolution was a period of rapid growth in the use ofmachinery in the early 1800s. Many U.S. businesses got their start withprofits from slave-produced goods and the slave trade.It’s important to understand how slavery affected the entire country,because its effects linger through discrimination, Singer says.
