although与though的区别和用法

although与though的区别和用法
一、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：
Though [Although] it was raining，we went there. 虽然下着雨，但我们还是去了那儿。

Though [Although] it was barely four o’clock, the lights were already on. 尽管才四点钟，灯已经亮了。

Though [Although] we are poor, we are still happy. 我们虽然穷，仍然很快活。

二、用作副词
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”：
It’s hard work; I enjoy it though. 工作很辛苦，可是我乐意干。

He is looking fit, though. 但他看起来很健康。

You can count on him, though. 不过你可以指靠他。

三、用于习语
在 as though(好像，仿佛)，even though(即使，纵然)等固定短语中不能用 although：She closed her eyes as though she were tired. 她闭上眼，仿佛很疲劳似的。

We felt as though we had witnessed the whole thing. 我们感到仿佛目击了整个这件事似的。

He is an honest man, I must say, even though I have opposed him. 尽管我反对过他，我还得说他是一个诚实的人。

She was always afraid of men, even though she had lots of boyfriends.尽管她有很多男朋友，她总是害怕男人。

四、用于倒装
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：
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。

五、though放在句尾相当于however, nevertheless
1 / 2
but, however, still, nevertheless, yet
but, however, still, nevertheless, yet这是几个词义很近的同义词，都表示转折或让步。

but 用来引出微弱的相反的意见，是口语常用词。

Nearly everybody enters for‘ The Nicest Garden Competition ’each year, but Joe wins every time.
年年几乎大家都报名参加“最佳花园竞赛”，但每次获胜的都是乔。

Sally was amused, but I was very embarrassed.
萨莉很开心，但我却很尴尬。

however 比 but 的词义弱些，并不直接引出相反的意见，因此常用作插入语
You will be lucky if he lets you go without a ticket. However, this does not always happen.
他如果不给你一个违章通知单就放你走，你就是运气好。

不过，这种事也并不总是发生的。

The most surprising thing about it, however, is that it can land anywhere…
不过，关于这架飞机的最使人吃惊的事情是，它可以在任何地方着路……
still 还，还是

冬天已经过去了，这是事实，但天气还是那么冷。

He treated you badly; still, he is your brother and you ought to help him.
他过去待你很坏，但是他还是你的哥哥，那么你应该帮助他。

nevertheless：即使作出完全的让步，也没有任何影响，或者说也不是决定因素。

There was no news; nevertheless, she went on hoping.
一点消息也没有，但是她继续抱着希望。

To be sure, it is no longer winter; nevertheless, it is quite cold.
现在固然已不是冬天了，可是天气还是相当冷。

yet 的含义是：即使做出极端的让步，也不会发生期待的结果。

He worked hard, yet, he failed.
他干得很卖力，然而他失败了。

It is well on in May, yet, it is almost as cold as midwinter.
现在进入5月份已经好长时间了，然而天气还象仲冬一样冷。
