although和though的区别?

一、从词性上看
1.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.如：
Though [Although] it was raining,we went there.虽然下着雨,但我们还是去了那儿.
2.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”.如：
It’s hard work; I enjoy it though.工作很辛苦,可是我乐意干.
这样用的 though 有时可与 however 换用.如：
We all tried our best.We lost the game,though [however].我们都已尽了最大的力量,但我们还是输了.
二、从用法上看
1.在 as though(好像,仿佛),even though(即使,纵然) 等固定短语中不能用 although.如：
He talks as though he knew anything.他夸夸其谈好像无所不知.
2.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.如：
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.
