参见：although
区别although和though:though可以做副词，指“但是”，但是although不行。as though属固定搭配，这里though不能替换成although。although要比though来得更正式，相对而言，语气比较重，但是though的使用更普遍。although引导的从句，常指实际发生的事情，而不是假象，设想。though和although都可在从句中用作连词，通常表示相同的意思，但though更普遍适应于非正式的表述中； He said he would come, he didn't, though.句中的though不能替换成although。 He would not be unhappy though he should have to live alone.就算要一个人住，他可能也不会不开心。 He was not unhappy although he had to live alone.虽然他不得不要一个人住，却没有不开心。
though已表示“然而，可是”，在句中，不可再与but连用。 Though he lives alone, but he is happy.句子中的but要删掉。
though引导的句子有时有特殊的格式。值得注意的是，句子 Though loving him, I cannot help him是不成立的，因为没有though I was loving这一说法。 Though he lives alone, he is happy.即使一个人，他还是很开心。句子中的“he lives”可以省略掉。
conj.(连词)though引导让步状语从句时表示一种假设的情况或含有推测的意味,从句的谓语动词可用陈述式,也可用虚拟式; 有时为了强调让步的意义,可采用倒装语序。
在用though连接的从句中,谓语是be,而从句的主语与主句的主语相同时,从句的主语与be可同时省略。
though还可用作副词表示“虽然,不过”,多用于口语中。例如:It was a quiet party.I had a good time, though.这次聚会非常安静,不过我还是玩得很痛快。
