So, WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THEM?🤔
The main difference between although, even though, in spite of and despite is that they are used with different structures.
In spite of 🆚 Despite
#Tip : After them, we use a noun, a gerund (-ing form of a verb) or a pronoun.
✅ They never made much money, in spite of their success.
✅ In spite of the pain in his leg, he completed the marathon.
✅ Despite having a headache, I had a great birthday.
✅ The train was cancelled. In spite of that, we arrived on time.
📝 Note that it is common to use “in spite of” and “despite” with the expression “the fact that”, followed by a subject. Notice the following ⤵️
✅ In spite of / Despite the fact that he worked very hard, he didn’t pass the exam.
Although 🆚 Even though
#Tip : After them, we use a subject and a verb. Even though is slightly more stronger and more emphatic than although.
✅ I enjoyed the course, although I would have liked more grammar practice.
✅ Although we saw each other every day, we didn’t really know each other.
✅ Even though she spoke very quietly, he understood every word.
✅ She didn’t get the job, even though she had all the necessary qualifications.
⚠️ The word “though” can be used in the same way as “although”. And it can also go at the end of the second phrase.
❇️ Though I wasn’t keen on the film, I thought the music was beautiful.
❇️ We waited ages for our food. The waiter was really nice, though.

When should I use “Wish” in a sentence?🤔
“I wish to” can mean the same as “I want to” but it is much, much more formal and less common.
#Tip: Use 'wish' with a noun to offer good wishes.
🔸 I wish you a merry Christmas.
⚠️ Hence that when you want to offer good wishes using a verb, you must use 'hope' and not 'wish'.
Example
✅ I wish you the best of luck.
▫️(wish + noun)
✅ I hope you have the best of luck.
▫️(wish + verb)
••———•●🔴⚪️🔵●•———••
However, the main use of 'wish' is to say that we would like things to be different from what they are.
❇️ I wish I were with you then.
❇️ 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
❇️ I never get invited to parties. I wish I got invited more.
❇️ 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
❇️ He won't help me. I wish he would help me.
❇️ You've eaten too much.I wish you would stop.
