Synthesis is the process of combining two sentences into one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We can combine two sentences using the conjunctions though<\/strong> and although<\/strong>. Both these words have the same meaning; however, though<\/strong> is more common than although<\/strong> in an informal style.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Though<\/strong> means in spite of the fact that<\/strong> or however<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Study the example given below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Meera tried her level best. Still she could not win the first rank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Here the second sentence contrasts with the first size. If Meera tried her level best, you would expect her to win the first rank, but she didn’t.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We can combine these two sentences using though or although<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Although<\/strong> Meera tried her level best, she could not win the first rank. (Note that we removed the word ‘still’.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n Though<\/strong> Meera tried her level best, she could not win the first rank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The clause introduced by though\/although<\/strong> can go after the main clause.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Read the sentence given below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Meera could not win the first rank although \/ though<\/strong> she tried her level best.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Though<\/strong> and although<\/strong> are subordinating conjunctions. Clauses introduced by them are subordinate clauses and should be attached to a main clause. Subordinate clauses can’t stand alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Combine the following sentences using though or although.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 1. He is very old. But he enjoys good health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 2. He was very tired. Yet he completed the work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 3. The constable ran as fast as he could. Still he could not catch the thief.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 4. The doctors gave her the best medical care. Still they could not save her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 5. Raju left home early. But he was late for school.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 6. Maya had the required qualifications. Still she did not get the job.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 7. I had some money on me. But I didn’t buy anything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 8. Our cricket team played well. But they lost the match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 9. He was annoyed. He didn’t say anything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 10. She is rich and famous. Still she is unhappy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 1. Though<\/strong> he is very old he enjoys good health. \/ He enjoys good health although<\/strong> he is very old. (Note that though and although are interchangeable.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n 2. Though<\/strong> he was very tired, he completed the work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 3. Though<\/strong> the constable ran as fast as he could, he could not catch the thief.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 4. Although<\/strong> the doctors gave her the best medical care, they could not save her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 5. Though<\/strong> Raju left home early, he was late for school.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 6. Although<\/strong> Maya had the required qualifications, she did not get the job.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 7. Although<\/strong> I had some money on me, I didn’t buy anything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 8. Though<\/strong> our cricket team played well, they lost the match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 9. Although<\/strong> he was annoyed, he didn’t say anything. \/ He didn’t say anything though <\/strong>he was annoyed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 10. Though<\/strong> she is rich and famous she is unhappy. \/ She is unhappy though <\/strong>she is rich and famous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When a subordinate clause comes at the beginning of the sentence, we usually separate it from the main clause with a comma.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Synthesis is the process of combining two sentences into one.
