despite与although有什么区别？再用法上有何不同？谢谢了！

Question

如题所述

Answer 1

although是连词，翻译成尽管、虽然，通常用在句首或句中。
例如Although he is only seven,he really knows a lot.
或者He really knows a lot, although he is only seven.
despite也翻译成尽管，但它是个介词，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。
