  although与though的区别

 
  一、从词性上看
  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。如:
  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”。如:
  It’s hard work; I enjoy it though. 工作很辛苦,可是我乐意干。
  这样用的 though 有时可与 however 换用。如:
  We all tried our best. We lost the game, though [however]. 我们都已尽了最大的力量,但我们还是输了。
 
  二、从用法上看
  1. 在 as though(好像,仿佛), even though(即使,纵然) 等固定短语中不能用 although。如:
  He talks as though he knew anything. 他夸夸其谈好像无所不知。
  2. 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。如:
  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。
