even if 和 even though都可以用于狀語從句,兩者意思相近,所以經(jīng)常被替換使用,確實利用近義詞可以增加句子的詞匯豐富度,但是在英語里往往不存在意思完全一樣的詞,這兩個詞也有些許微妙的差別,如果用得不合適了,便會給人生硬的感覺,所以這次小編就來跟大家一起學(xué)習(xí)一下這兩者的異同·。

1. even if引導(dǎo)的從句是往往是假設(shè)性的,相當(dāng)于漢語的“即使”“縱然”“就算”“哪怕”,有時還可以用于虛擬語氣,意思與if接近。

eg. They’ll stand by you even if you don’t succeed.

???? Even if it rains tomorrow, we won’t change our plan.

???? Even if he had the chance, he wouldn’t catch it. (虛擬語氣,就算有機會也不會抓住)

2. even though引導(dǎo)的從句內(nèi)容往往是真實的,主要用于引出不利用于主句情況的信息,相當(dāng)于漢語的“盡管”“雖然”,與 though,although意思接近。

eg. He went out even though it was raining.

???? He is the best student even though he has the least time to study.

???? Even though (thought, although)I feet sorry for father, l am secretly pleased that he has the time to play with me.

3. 在口語中,even if與even though有時也可不加區(qū)別地混用。

eg. Even if (even though) he hurted her, she still loves him.

??? ? We are good friends, even if (even though) we keep some secrets to each other.

好了以上就是小編為大家整理的even if 和 even though的三大異同點了,希望能給大家?guī)硪恍椭?。讓步狀語從句雖然用法復(fù)雜多樣,但總歸是遵循著一定的規(guī)律的,想要熟練掌握這個知識點,就必須先得摸清這個規(guī)律,然后再開始記憶與應(yīng)用。
