一、用作連詞表示“雖然”,兩者大致同義,可換用,只是 although 比 though 更為正式:例句:
They are generous although they are poor.他們雖窮卻慷慨。Though she tried very hard,she failed in the examination.雖然她很刻苦,她考試還是沒有及格。二、用作副詞although 一般不用作副詞,而 though 可用作副詞,且一般放在句末(不放在句首),意為“可是”、“不過”:例句:They will probably win,though no one thinks so.他們可能會獲勝,然而沒有人這樣認為。The girl is better, though not yet cured.女孩好一點了,不過仍未痊癒。三、用於習語在 as though(好像,彷彿),even though(即使,縱然)等固定短語中不能用 although:As though I were God. 就好像我是上帝。the poem as though he neither understood nor enjoyed it. 這個小男孩急促而漫不經心地朗誦著詩,他好像既不懂這首詩又不喜歡這首詩。四、用於倒裝though 引導的讓步狀語從句可用部分倒裝的形式(注意:倒裝後位於句首的名詞之前不用冠詞),但 although 一般不這樣用:例句:Poor though I am, I can afford it. 我雖窮,但這東西還是買得起的。Child though he was, he did quite well. 他雖是孩子,但乾得很好
