Though：雖然，儘管。多用於口語，在文體上不如although正式，常用於省略句，或引出倒裝語序的讓步狀語從句。例如：Though(he is)living alone,he is very happy.他雖然一個人生活，但很愉快。Though(he is)certainly not a lady-killer,he is still very attractive.他雖然還不至於讓女人一見傾心，卻很有魅力。Strange though it may sound,I was pleased it was over.儘管聽起來也許很奇怪，但我很高興這都結束了。
用though時，可將強調的詞前置，但although不能。如：Poor though he is,he is happy.雖然他窮，但過得很愉快。Child though she was,the actress was drawing a crowd.儘管還是個孩子，這個女演員卻引起了人們的注目。
Although引導從句常指事實，而though引導的句子可表假設。如：Let's start as arranged though it rains tomorrow.即使明天下雨，咱們也按預定的計劃出發吧。He was not unhappy although he had to live alone.雖然得一個人生活，他毫無不快之感。
