随着我们的英语学习越加深入,慢慢发现同一个词义有诸多不同的词,
但这篇文章里谈到的四个词尽管都是“尽管”意思,但是确有非常不一样的使用方法,稍不注意,就发现语法错了。
我们先看although, though,这两个词的词性是副词,因此他们是可以跟从句的。
而despite, in spite of,这两个词的词性是介词,因此他们只可以跟词组或者动名词。
例如,我们来造两个句子:
Although (Though) these four words have the same meaning, they have different usages.
These four words have different usages in spite of(despite) same meaning.
