用法
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。
conj.(連詞)
although的基本意思是“儘管,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。
詞彙辨析
though，as
這些連詞均可表示“雖然，儘管”之意。
though 和although在意義上幾乎毫無區別，但文體上後者是較正式用詞，語氣比though強。此外，在習慣用法上這兩個詞仍有以下一些差異：gh可引出倒裝語序的讓步狀語從句，although 則不能。gh可與even連用，although則不能;在as though結構中，只用though，不能用although。gh可以置於從句末，而although則不能。4.引出省略句時，通常用though。
as 引出讓步狀語從句只用於倒裝語序結構中，語氣強於上述兩個連詞。
