Question

Despite与Although 的用法区别

用Despite还是although
1.Despite/Although losing the receipt, the store gave John a full refund.
2.The customer sevice manager was very knowledgable although/despite being new to the job
求详细解释

Answer 1

although是连词,翻译亮悔成尽管、虽然,通常用在句首或句中.
例如Although he is only seven,he really knows a lot.
或雹轿者He really knows a lot,although he is only seven.
despite也翻译成尽管,但它是个介敬肆正词,这是与although的最大区别.
举个例子：Despite his young age,he really knows a lot.
也就是说despite后面只能加名词性短语或代词.
