EXPRESSING CONTRAST
EXPRESSING CONTRAST
ALTHOUGH, THOUGH, EVEN THOUGH
We use them
to connect contrasting ideas, introducing a dependent clause.
ALTHOUGH
After although we use a sentence (subject+verb+complements).
We can use 'although' at the beginning or in the middle of a sentence.
e.g. Although
it rained a lot, we enjoyed our holiday.
I
didn’t get the job although I had
the necessary qualifications.
THOUGH
Sometimes
we use though instead of although.
e.g. I didn’t get the job though I had the necessary qualifications.
In spoken
English we often use though at the end
of a sentence.
e.g. I see them every day. I’ve never spoken to
them though (= but I’ve never spoken
to them)
EVEN THOUGH
It’s a
stonger form of although.
e.g. Even
though I was really tired, I couldn’t sleep.
HOWEVER
We can use it
to indicate that the second point we wish to make contrasts with the first
point.
It
introduces or completes a contrasting sentence. However always has punctuation before and after. It’s usually
placed in initial position.
e.g. I got up late. However, I got to work on time.
NOW PRACTISE THE USE OF ALTHOUGH, BUT AND HOWEVER DOING THE FOLLOWING EXERCISE:
ALTHOUGH, BUT OR HOWEVER?
