Question

Although he is poor, he is a charitable man. Choose the correct main clause in the given sentence-​

Answer 1

Explanation:

It is more an indication than a definite difference.

“Though he is poor, he is honest” means that his poverty has not made him dishonest. It doesn’t imply that poor people are necessarily dishonest, just that the pressure is there and he has avoided it.

“Although he is poor, he is honest” is a little more definite. It implies that poor people are likely to be dishonest but he isn’t.

“He may be poor, but he is honest” is another way to put it which emphasises the honesty more than the poverty. Just saying “He is honest” avoids reference to it altogether and may be more relevant.
