  • even if, even though
  • 这两个短语都可作“即使,纵使”解,用来引导让步状语从句,一般可以换用。其细微差别是:

  • 即使你不喜欢喝酒,也喝一杯试试。
  • They will stand by you even though you don't succeed.
  • 纵然你不成功,他们也会支持你的。

  • Even if he loves her, he can't marry her.
  • 即使他爱她,他也不能和她结婚。
  • Even though he loves her, he can't marry her.
  • 尽管他爱她,他也不能和她结婚。
  • 下面句子中even位置的不同而引起的句子的侧重点不同:

  • 连我也没有被乔的威吓所烦扰。
  • I am not even disturbed by Joe's threats.
  • 乔的威吓我连一点不安的感觉都没有。
