Today, We are going to look at something i get asked about all the time. Though, although and even though are used with adverbs clauses. To refresh your memory, let me tell you that Clause is any group of words that must have a subject and verb. Though, although and even though is used before a dependent clause to show contrast. Though and Although have no difference but though is a little bit informal. You can use either of them In the beginning of the sentence or in the middle of the sentence. The biggest difference is, you can end the sentence with though, but you can not end the sentence with although. Example: Although  the exam was difficult, I did well. I think i did well  though  the exam was difficult. The exam was difficult. I think i did well,  though . Note : Put comma before though when you finish the sentence with it. Even though also shows contrast but the contrast is much stronger contrast and adds emphasis. Even though  the exam was easy, I

Today, I'm going to teach you one trick. Finally, you will understand why in English we say we are going to school, or we are going to work, but when we talk about our beautiful cozy home we say we are going home. You have learnt when we are going someplace we say 'To'. Example : Are you going to bed? Are you going to work? Are you going to school? Did you go to school? Did you go to http://grammarfit.blogspot.in today and check out new lesson? Note : We have used to before bed, work, school, and http://grammarfit.blogspot.in because they all are nouns. So when we say we are going to someplace which is a noun, we use 'TO'. I give you today a list of words that are places, but you Can not use 'TO' before them. Remember! the list contains the words which are not noun, but they actually are Adverbs of locations.

A clause is a group of words that has a subject and a verb. The difference between an independent and a dependent clause is the type of word it starts with. A dependent clause starts with a subordinate conjunction word such as  “when, ” “ if ” or “ which .” Examples: When Ronnie turned 65, If Your father phones you late, which I broke last Wednesday An independent clause can stand alone as a separate sentence and does not start with a subordinate conjunction. Examples: Let’s start the Match. I’ll tell her the assignment. The battery is defective. Every sentence must have at least one independent clause. A dependent clause is combined with an independent clause to make a longer  sentence.These  example sentences with one independent and one dependent clause are called complex sentences. Examples: When Ronnie gets here, let’s start the match. If Denise comes to class late, I’ll tell her the assignment. The battery which I bought last weekend is defective. N

Therefore  Therefore is more like a mathematical word but we do use it to write as well. When we have a premise and from the premise (An idea we believe is true)  we generally reach a conclusion. Thus  Thus means result and is a little different than Consequences. A result means, a result of the last argument. Thus can also mean 'Like That'.  Ex: If the model is thus (Like this) constructed, the result will be different. Consequences Consequences means result. Somethi
