英語語法:though和although都可以作“雖然”講,區別一目瞭然

though和although都可以作“雖然”講,區別在哪裡呢?

我們首先來看看它們的共同點。

though和although都可以引導讓步狀語從從句。though和although當“雖然”講,都不能和but連用,但可以同yet(still)連用。比如說:

Though she was poor, yet she wanted to buy that dress.儘管她很貧窮,然而她還是想買那件禮服。

Although it wasn't dangerous, the teacher didn't allow them to swim.雖然不危險,老師還是不讓他們去游泳。

兩者的區別共有4點。

1.although比though更為正式,though普遍的運用於非正式的表述中。

2.在as though固定搭配中,though不可以替換成although。

3.although比though更正式,相對而言,語氣比較重,但是though的使用更普遍。although引導的從句,常指實際發生的事情,而不是假設或設想。比如說下面這兩個句子:

He would not be unhappy though he should have to live alone.

就算一個人住,他也不會不開心。(假設)

He was not unhappy although he had to live alone.

雖然他不得不一個人住,卻沒有不開心。(實際發生)

4.though可以用作副詞你,指“但是”,但是although不行。比如說:

He said he would come,he didn't ,though.(句中的though不能替換成although)

他說他要來,但是他沒有。

這種把though放在句尾表示“但是”,在口語中是非常高頻使用的,我們要多加練習。

相信積累的力量。
