Spelling/Usage Error

Why do people make this mistake?

People often mistakenly break the conjunction "although" into two separate words, "all though", due to mishearing or misunderstanding the correct usage.

What is correct?

The correct form is "although", which is a conjunction meaning "in spite of the fact that" or "even though".

Examples of correct usage
