after all 用法， although but 用法

词组after all有两个用法：人表示“毕竞”,“终究”,“到底”,含有和预期的情况相反或“虽然.,但还是…．”的让步意义.表示此意时,after all 一般放句末.如：
So you did come after all.这么说你到底还是来了.
I thouht I would fail the exam ,but I passed after all．
我原想考试难及格,可我还是及格了.
尽管他们遇到很多困难．可我听说他们还是成功了.
B.表示“别忘了……,”“总之.”“毕竟”,这时的after all一般故在句首,用来提醒对方(听话的人)似乎忘记了一个重要事实,忽略了某个重要的理由或论点.如：
①Why is he not allowed to stay here?After all,It's his home.

②After all,she is a child.

although引导的从句不能与but,however连用,但可与yet,still连用.
Although用法如下：
1.although较正式,语气强
Although he was tired,he went on working.
2.although引导的从句放在主句前后均可,有时还可放在句中.
Although many difficulties are still ahead,we are determined to make greater achievements.尽管在前面的道路上还有许多困难,但是,我们决心要取得更大的成就.
He often helps me with my English although he is quite busy.尽管他相当忙,但是还常常帮我学英语.
3.although引导的从句不能与but,however连用,但可与yet,still连用.不能说：Although he was old,but he worked hard.应把but去掉.当然,保留but而去Although也可.
注意:although 的几不:
although不能指假设的情况
although不能作并列连词 
although不能作副词,放在词尾
