    though

    词意辨析:

    though, although, as, even though
    这些连词均可表示“虽然,尽管”之意。
    though: 和although在意义上几乎毫无区别,但在习惯用法上这两个词仍有以下一些差异:1.though可引出倒装语序的让步状语从句,although 则不能。2.though可与even连用,although则不能;在as though结构中,只用though,不能用although。3.though可以置于从句末,而although则不能。4.引出省略句时,通常用though。
    although: 与though在意义上相似,但文体上是比较正式用词,语气比though强。
    as: 引出让步状语从句只用于倒装语序结构中,语气强于上述两个连词。
    even though: (=even if),意为“即使”,引导让步状语从句。though也引导让步状语从句,意为“虽然”;even though有退一步设想的意味,与though不同。though引导的句子所说的是事实,even though引导的句子所说的则不一定是事实。例如:he will not tell the secret even though(even if)he knows it.
    即使他知道这个秘密,他也不肯说出来。he will not tell the secret though he knows it.
    他虽然知道这个秘密,但他不会说出来。

    英语解释:

    副词 though:

    (postpositive) however

    例句:

    He said he would come, he didn't, though.他说他要来,可是并没有来。
