Created page with "A word about "though" /ðo/ Especially at the end of a sentence, or in apposition, it means ''en revanche'', ''par contre'', or ''quand même'' : *I don't have his phone nu..."

New page

A word about "though" /ðo/

Especially at the end of a sentence, or in apposition, it means ''en revanche'', ''par contre'', or ''quand même'' :

*I don't have his phone number; I do have his email address ''though''.
*I had hoped to finish the chapter, but someone started talking to me on the train. I did find out a bit about the schedule for works on the Vienne-Lyon line, ''though''.
*By far, ''though'', the album’s best moments come when the music’s scale turns epic. [https://downbeat.com/reviews/detail/time-gone-out §]

At the beginning of a clause (proposition), it means quoique or bien que, même si, etc. Technically it is referred to as a "concessive conjunction". https://www.cnrtl.fr/definition/concessive
*I had a tiny room with no view, though I had been promised a luxurious suite overlooking the beach.
*Though often associated with a classic hard-bop sound, New Jersey-based saxophonist Tom Tallitsch changes things up a bit on Ten. [https://downbeat.com/reviews/detail/ten §]
*Argentine-born guitarist Dominic Miller is probably better known as a Sting sideman than a solo artist, though he has more than a dozen albums to his name. [https://downbeat.com/reviews/detail/absinthe §]

'''but''' is very similar to a concessive conjunction.
