though都有哪些用法

though都有哪些用法

1.THOUGH / HOWEVER

though 在表示「但是」的时候,用法和 however 基本一致。只不过 though 在表示转折的时候,常常会放在句子最后。对比下面两个句子:

We thought the figures were correct. However, we have now discovered some errors. 我们原以为数据是正确,但现在我们发现了一些错误。

Economics is a difficult subject. It's interesting, though. 经济学是一门难懂的学科,但很有趣。

2.THOUGH / ALTHOUGH

在表示「虽然」的时候,although 和 though 可以互换着用。口语里 though 更常用。

此外,可以说 even though,但是不能说 even although。

3.THOUGH 用在倒装句

同样在表示「虽然」的时候,though 可以引导一个倒装句。

Strange though it may sound, I was pleased it was over. 虽然这么说有点奇怪,但我还是很高兴这事儿结束了。

此时 though 一般不能用 although 代替。
