Please bear in mind:

Begin your sentences with a capital letter.
End your sentences with an appropriate punctuation mark.
# Leave a space after a punctuation mark.
'In spite' - two words.

Have you tried looking up these words in one of the dictionaries here? Many of them give example sentences showing the word in use.
