The correct expression is in spite, as inspite is not a real word. In spite of is a prepositional phrase composed of three individual words collectively meaning irrespective of.

Despite sentence example

• Despite her fear, she wrapped her arms around him.
• He appeared relaxed, despite the danger.
• Despite the water, her mouth was dry and aching almost to the point of pain.
• Our vacation was a lot of fun, despite the cold weather.
• It gave off heat despite the black flames.

Despite / In spite of + N Next, explain to your students that despite and in spite of must be followed by a noun or gerund. You can also point out that despite and in spite of have the same meaning, but despite is more commonly used than in spite of. The latter is a little more formal.

We can use either of the adverbs however or nevertheless to indicate that the second point we wish to make contrasts with the first point. The difference is one of formality: nevertheless is bit more formal and emphatic than however.

If ‘in spite of’ and ‘despite’ are used in front of the phrase ‘the fact that’ then they can be used with a subject and a verb: In spite of the fact that he studied very hard, he still didn’t pass the exam. Despite the fact that it rained we still had a great time. ‘even though’ can be used the same way as ‘although’.

(sentence adverb), (formal) You use nevertheless to add surprising information or something in contrast to what was already said or written. Morgan stopped working as a doctor in 1973. Nevertheless, he remained active in medical research until his death.

According to the Oxford English Dictionary, nevertheless and nonetheless are interchangeable; however, strict grammarians insist that nevertheless should be used when referring to something that has occurred, is occurring, or might occur. Nonetheless means in spite of, in contrast to, or notwithstanding.
