Is the word however a preposition or an interjection?

"However" is not a preposition or an interjection. It's an adverb.

Here's why:

* Adverbs modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs. They often answer questions like "how?", "when?", "where?", or "to what extent?".

* Prepositions show the relationship between a noun or pronoun and other words in the sentence. They often indicate location, time, or direction.

* Interjections express strong emotions or sudden feelings.

Example:

* "However, I still think it's a good idea." In this sentence, "however" modifies the entire following clause, indicating a contrast or exception to the previous statement.
