So, WHATโ€™S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THEM?๐Ÿค”

The main difference between although, even though, in spite of and despite is that they are used with different structures.

In spite of ๐Ÿ†š Despite
#Tip : After them, we use a noun, a gerund (-ing form of a verb) or a pronoun.
โœ… They never made much money, in spite of their success.
โœ… In spite of the pain in his leg, he completed the marathon.
โœ… Despite having a headache, I had a great birthday.
โœ… The train was cancelled. In spite of that, we arrived on time.

๐Ÿ“ Note that it is common to use โ€œin spite ofโ€ and โ€œdespiteโ€ with the expression โ€œthe fact thatโ€, followed by a subject. Notice the following โคต๏ธ

โœ… In spite of / Despite the fact that he worked very hard, he didnโ€™t pass the exam.

Although ๐Ÿ†š Even though
#Tip : After them, we use a subject and a verb. Even though is slightly more stronger and more emphatic than although.
โœ… I enjoyed the course, although I would have liked more grammar practice.
โœ… Although we saw each other every day, we didnโ€™t really know each other.
โœ… Even though she spoke very quietly, he understood every word.
โœ… She didnโ€™t get the job, even though she had all the necessary qualifications.

โš ๏ธ The word โ€œthoughโ€ can be used in the same way as โ€œalthoughโ€. And it can also go at the end of the second phrase.
โ‡๏ธ Though I wasnโ€™t keen on the film, I thought the music was beautiful.
โ‡๏ธ We waited ages for our food. The waiter was really nice, though.

๐ŸŒป๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒป๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒป๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒป๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒป๐ŸŒธ
๐ŸŒป๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒป๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒป๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒป๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒป๐ŸŒธ

๐Ÿ“–#Grammar_Lesson๐Ÿ“–

When should I use โ€œWishโ€ in a sentence?๐Ÿค”

โ€œI wish toโ€ can mean the same as โ€œI want toโ€ but it is much, much more formal and less common.

#Tip: Use 'wish' with a noun to offer good wishes.

๐Ÿ”ธ I wish you a merry Christmas.

โš ๏ธ Hence that when you want to offer good wishes using a verb, you must use 'hope' and not 'wish'.

Example
โœ… I wish you the best of luck.
โ–ซ๏ธ(wish + noun)

โœ… I hope you have the best of luck.
โ–ซ๏ธ(wish + verb)

โ€ขโ€ขโ€”โ€”โ€”โ€ขโ—๐Ÿ”ดโšช๏ธ๐Ÿ”ตโ—โ€ขโ€”โ€”โ€”โ€ขโ€ข
However, the main use of 'wish' is to say that we would like things to be different from what they are.

โ‡๏ธ I wish I were with you then.
โ‡๏ธ He wishes he could fly.


Notice that the verb tense which follows 'I wish' is 'more in the past' than the tense corresponding to its meaning.

Examples
โ‡๏ธ I never get invited to parties. I wish I got invited more.
โ‡๏ธ I'm too emotional. I wish I were more logical.

#Tip: In the case of 'will', where 'will' means 'show willingness' we use 'would'.

Examples
โ‡๏ธ He won't help me. I wish he would help me.
โ‡๏ธ You've eaten too much.I wish you would stop.

๐ŸŸข REPORTED SPEECH ๐ŸŸข

โœ We often need to tell others what someone else said. There are two ways to do this. One is to say the same words and use quotation marks. That is "direct speech." The other method is to summarize, or tell about what someone said. This is called "reported speech." Before we get into the rules for reporting speech, here are the terms we are using to explain it.

๐Ÿง‘โ€๐ŸŽ“ Rules for reporting speech ๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐ŸŽ“

๐Ÿ”ฅ To get this kind of sentence right, there are four things you should keep in mind:

1โƒฃ The first rule is to choose a reporting verb and tense.

โญ•๏ธ With current, repeated or recent events, the reporting verb is in the present tense. "He says he is hungry, so let's go to lunch." A habitual or repeated statement is in the present tense: "Everyone says the water is safe to drink." For reporting less immediate speech, choose the past tense. The reporting verb is often said, but it can also be told, or other verbs like ordered, stated, or reported, depending on the situation. When reporting questions, you can use verbs like asked or requested.

2โƒฃ The second rule is to change the perspective, or point of view.

โญ•๏ธThat means I becomes he, she, or they.

"Mary said 'I ate the pie."' becomes
"She said that she ate the pie."

"The boys said, 'We are coming tomorrow'" becomes
"They said they are coming tomorrow."

๐Ÿ”ข Next, choose whether to include "that or "if."

โญ•๏ธYou can say, "He says he is at home" or "He says that he is at home." That is a conjunction here, linking the two parts of the sentence. It is optional. Another conjunction, if, is required when reporting on a question: "He asked me if I knew how to play tennis."

4โƒฃ The fourth rule is to "backshift" the tense.

โญ•๏ธThis is the trickiest part of reported speech. When the reporting verb is in the past tense, the verb in the reported clause is in the past tense, too. The verb aspect, showing whether the action is completed, matches. Here are some examples:โ€‹

"I am buying my ticket." (present continuous)
-> He said he was buying his ticket. (past continuous)

Ashley: "I have fixed my bicycle." (present perfect)
-> She said she had fixed her bicycle. (past perfect

True beauty isn't in the face. It's in the heart ๐Ÿ’™

Beauty on the face fades off, but a beautiful heart stays forever ๐Ÿ’š

May ALLAH grant us inner beauty and let that inner beauty reflect in our actions ... Aameen ๐Ÿ’•
