Hi [이름]!
Thanks for doing this. Anyway, *Even if means whether or not and has to do with the conditions that may apply. Example:Even though I had two hours to spare for shopping, I couldn\'t find the suit I wanted.
*Even though means despite the fact that and is a more emphatic version of though and although. Example:Even if I had two hours to spare for shopping, I wouldn\'t go out and buy a suit.
The first example describes an unreal situation where we could substitute \'just supposing\' for even if and say: just supposing I had two hours to spare for shopping, I still wouldn\'t go out and buy a suit.
The second example describes a real situation where the shopper spent two hours looking for a particular kind of suit, but couldn\'t find it. When we attach even to though in this way, we are in effect saying: you may find this surprising but...!
See you on Friday!
