Can I use tho though just like when I use because or but? If tho means though = although = however, I don't think that makes sense Or perhaps, have I been misunderstood by its real meaning regardlss it's used in formal or non-formal situation? I'm always thinking that the word tho used in those sentences don't have meaning and just the way people who want to sound like American have cool English
Is thru for through acceptable? Tho for though? The rule, however, isn't that words ending in -ough are shortened to -u, but instead in very informal writing the last vowel sound of a word is used instead of the proper ending This gives through → thru because of the final "oo" sound, but also abbreviated forms though → tho or although → altho because they end in "oh" (as in "cold")
People please tell me what does tho mean! [closed] Tho is an alternate spelling of "though," often used when people want to type is few letters as possible It is naturally popular on twitter, where you have count your characters, but it's actually been around in English for well over 100 years
