IV. Language Focus - connectors ALTHOUGH THEREFORE We use ALTHOUGH to show a contradiction between two ideas. It must be at the beginning of a sentence, and the ideas are separated by comma. Although I like apples, I hate apple juice. Although the job is well payed, I will quit because I received a better offer. We use Therefore to show a result or consequence of an action. It works similar to the connector so but more advanced. you have excellent qualifications for this job. Therefore, you will get that position you wanted. There were not enough candidates. Therefore, they are still accepting applications.

Example: Lea forgot to write her phone number on the application form / the company called her anyway. 1.
