Definitions:
-
(1)
(although) even though -- used to introduce an idea that contrasts with or makes the main statement surprisingAt the start of a sentence, although can play a role similar to words like however, yet, still, even so, on the other hand, or nonetheless—all of which signal contrast. In the middle of a sentence, although can sometimes be used where but or though might also work, but though or but often sound more natural. For example, "She's a great teacher, though not the most popular" is usually smoother than "She's a great teacher, although not the most popular."
- (2) (meaning too rare to warrant focus)
