"She speaks very good Italian. But then she did live in Rome for a year."
"She speaks very good Italian. But then she did live in Rome for a year."
"But then" sounds awkward and unfit in that context to me, a non-native speaker. "Because" looks better to me. Does "But then" sound right to you?
If so, what's the meaning of that? Is there any other interchangeable conjunction for that?
