Hello everyone, this is teacher Lena~
在英语中有几个表示'虽然但是'的词组,分别是though, although, even though和even if。虽然这四个词组很相似,其中却有很多细微的差别。
今天Lena老师就来教大家这几个词组的辨析小技巧吧!

1
Though & Although
though和although都是连词,表示'虽然,尽管',通常用来说明句子前后发生的事情有意想不到的对比。
在很多情况下,though和although都可互换使用。
例如:
We went for a walk though/although it was raining.
尽管下雨,我们还是去散步了。
Though/Although it wasn't dangerous, the teacher didn't allow them to swim.
虽然不危险,老师还是不让他们去游泳。
除了以上的常规用法,though和although在使用上存在很多异同。
共同点
· 从句中只能用'yet'或'still',绝对不能用'but'。
例如:
Although they fought bravely, they still had no chance of winning.
虽然他们打的很勇猛,但还是没有机会获胜。
· 从句可以采用省略形式。
例如:刘德华老婆
Although (he was) tired, he still kept on working.
虽然很疲劳,但他仍然继续工作。
This problem, though (it is) complicated, can be solved without much difficulty.
虽然问题很复杂,但我们没花什么功夫就解决了。
不同点
· though较口语化;although更加正式,且语气更强。
· though可以表达假设的情况;although通常表达的是事实,等同于even though。
例如:
He would not be unhappy though he should have to live alone.
就算一个人住,他也不会不开心。(假设)
He was not unhappy although/even though he had to live alone.
虽然他不得不一个人住,却没有不开心。(事实)
· though引导的从句可以倒装;although不可。
例如:
Poor though he is, he still feels happy.
虽然他很穷,但他仍过得很快乐。
· though既可以当连词,也可以当副词,使用时可放在句尾或句中;although只能作连词,且只能放在从句开头。
例如:
硬件性能She didn't tell me what she had done, but I know it though.
她没告诉我她所做的事情,但我还是知道了。
· though可以和even/as等词连用,变成even though和as though,有强调之意;although只能单独使用。
例如:
Even though she could afford it, she wouldn't buy this bag.
即使她付得起这笔钱,她也不会买这个包。
2
Even though & Even if
指甲的月牙even though和even if大多数情况下可以互换,都表示'虽然',但仍有一些细微差别需要注意。
· even though表示'尽管/虽然',从句表达的是真实的内容。此时even though可以和though或although互换。
例如:
Even though we all tried our best, we lost the game. 安全生产条例
三角恋是什么意思虽然我们已尽了最大的努力,但还是输了。
此处even though可以换成though或者although,即:
Even though/Although we all tried our best, we lost the game.
虽然我们已尽了最大的努力,但还是输了。
· even if表示'就算/哪怕',引导的从句有很强的假设性,等同于if,因此有时需要使用虚拟语气。
例如:
Even if it rains tomorrow, we won't change our plan.
即使明天下雨,我们也决不改变计划。
