Although и though переводятся одинаково(хотя), но разница между ними в том, что первое ставится только в начало предложения,а второе может быть и в начале, и в середине, и в конце предложения.
Even though переводится как "даже не смотря на". Оно более сильно, чем despite (так как оно переводится как просто "несмотря на")
While переводится как "пока" (пока что-то происходит, а не прощание)
Whereas переводится как "в то время как, между тем", но не как "пока". Эти слова имеют разные значения.
