用法辨析
- although的基本意思是“盡琯,雖然”或“然而,但是”,常用於引導陳述語氣的讓步狀語從句,且引導的句子常指事實,而不指設想。
- although可置於句首(此時多用逗號與主句分開),也可置於句末(此時用不用逗號均可),也可用於句中表強調。
- 在although引導的複郃句中，若主句和從句的主語相同，且從句的謂語動詞含動詞be，則從句的主語和動詞be可以省略。
- although不能與but在句中同時出現，即有了although就不可以再用but。但although可與副詞yet連用而産生關聯關系，在含讓步狀語從句的主句中還可以使用nevertheless, still等副詞。
- 區別although和though:though可以做副詞，指“但是”，但是although不行。as though屬固定搭配，though不能替換成although。although要比though來得更正式，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，而不是假象，設想。though和although都可在從句中用作連詞，通常表示相同的意思，但though更普遍適應於非正式的表述中。He said he would come, he didn't, though. 句中的though不能替換成although。He would not be unhappy though he should have to live alone. 就算要一個人住，他可能也不會不開心。He was not unhappy although he had to live alone. 雖然他不得不要一個人住，卻沒有不開心。
