USAGE:
(1.) В отличие от русских уступительных предложений, которые допускают два союза, (например: хотя он занят, но вас он примет), в английских соответствующих предложениях употребляется только один союз при соединении двух предложений: although he is very busy, he will see you. Два союза возможны, если соединяются более двух предложений: although she was tired, she went to work, but she didn't stay long хотя она и устала, она пошла на работу, но пробыла там недолго. (2.) See after, cj; USAGE (1.).
