Description:
The edge conjunction 'peo', is similar to the conjunction 'joku', 'but, yet, however', attached. It contrasts two elements, but with the opposite emphasis - the element introduced by 'poe' is the element that makes the second assertation notable or surprising in some way, as opposed to the surprising assertation itself as with joku.
