Well as you can see, I'm wiping the windows.
I have always thought of an "as" clause placed at the beginning with an adjective or adverb fronted as a concessive clause, the like of "though/ although clause"; I was wondering if my thought is right.
But in the case of my example, when I take it as a concessive clause, the whole sentence becomes incoherent.
So I'd like to know whether "well as you can see" is a a concessive clause, whether if not, it means "well like you can see" and qualifies the following clause "I'm wiping the windows."
Thank you in advance for your help.
