如何区分even though和even if

虽然搭配 “even though” 和 “even if” 都可以在一句话中起强调作用，但它们的意思不同。 它们分别用来引出出乎意料的事实和假设的情况。

1 “Even though” 的意思是 “即使，虽然”，它用来引出一个真实、但出乎意料的情况，类似于介词 “despite” 的用法。 

Even though I hate driving, I'm still going to Scotland.

Even though I hate tennis, I'm still going to watch the final.

2 “Even if” 的意思是 “即便，即使”，它用来引出一个假设的情况，所以不一定是事实。

Even if it's sunny when we're in Scotland, I'm not going swimming

Even if you paid me, I wouldn't watch that film.
