从属连词althoughthough的用法区别与比较

两者均表示“虽然”,区别如下:

(1) 用作连词,表示“虽然”,两者大致同义,可换用,只是 although 比 though 更为正式:

Though [Although] it was raining,we went there. 虽然下着雨,但我们还是去了那儿。

(2) although 一般不用作副词,而 though 可用作副词,且一般放在句末(不放在句首),意为“可是”、“不过”:

It’s hard work; I enjoy it though. 工作很辛苦,可是我乐意干。

(3) 在 as though(好像,仿佛),even though(即使,纵然)等固定短语中不能用 although:

He talks as though he knew anything. 他夸夸其谈好像无所不知。

(4) though 引导的让步状语从句可用部分倒装的形式(注意:倒装后位于句首的名词之前不用冠词),但 although 一般不这样用:

Poor though I am, I can afford it. 我虽穷,但这东西还是买得起的。

Child though he was, he did quite well. 他虽是孩子,但干得很好。
