在英文中表示“虽然…但是,尽管…但”这类意思的时候,我们称之为让步(conces-sion)。下面简述一下表示让步的一些词语。一、Although 和 though尽管这两个连词在用法上往往一样,但还是有一些差别。Though 一般用于非正式的口语和书面语中,语气较弱,而 al-though 可以用于各种文体。当表示强调时,though 可以与 even 连用产生 eventhough 短语,而不能说 even although。另外 though 还可以用于部分倒装的结构里,表示非常强烈的对照,语气最强。例如:1.Although he was late,he stopped to buysome records.尽管他晚了,但还是停下来买了一些唱片。 In English it says “though ... but despite the meanings ... but”, we call it conces-sion. Here’s a few words about concessions. First, Though and Though Although the two conjunctions are often used in the same way, there are still some differences. Though generally used in informal spoken and written language, the tone is weak, while al-though can be used in a variety of styles. While emphasizing, although can be used in conjunction with even produce eventhough phrase, but can not say even although. Another though can also be used in the partially flip structure, said a very strong contrast, the strongest tone. For example: 1.Although he was late, he stopped to buysome records. Although he was late, he stopped and bought some records.
