child though he was, he could do housework for his mother.Although he was still a child at the time, he was already able to help his mother with household chores.

The inversion of the adverbial clause about concession is as follows:
1. The virtual concession adverbial clause of whether needs to be inverted. If it is a verb, put the verb before the subject. If the predicate is a noun, the indefinite article before it is removed. If the clause predicate is a substantive verb, the subject is often omitted, and only the original form of the predicate verb is retained.
Wether leads the concession adverbial clause, e.g., whether it be bird, fish, or beast, the porpoise is intrigued with anything that is alive.
2. Though , as (although) caused clauses, their inversion is to encounter the modal verb when the verb form, and the verb form can be adjusted to the beginning of the sentence. The phrase is inverted: study as i may, i lost game
I learned, but I lost. The as in this sentence can also be replaced by though.

1) Adjective or adverb + as + subject + conjunctive verb be or substantive verb.
2) noun + as + subject + conjunctive verb be (note that the noun at the beginning of the sentence does not have an article).
3) Substantive verb + as + subject + auxiliary verb [if there is no auxiliary verb, add a do (do or did)]. When as is interpreted as "although" and leads to a concession-like Sanqi Hu clause, the predicate, adverbial or verb form must be mentioned in front of as. There are three forms of inverted word order in a sentence:
1) Adjective or adverb + as + subject + conjunctive verb be or substantive verb. For example, the age ruler:
rich as he is, he never spends a cent on clothes.
Although he was wealthy, he never spent a penny on clothes.
much as i admire his courage, i don’t think he acted wisely.
While I admire his courage, I don't think he was smart enough to do so.
2) noun + as + subject + conjunctive verb be (note that the noun at the beginning of the sentence does not have an article). For example;
child as he is, he knows a lot.
Even though he was a child, he understood a lot of things.
boy as he was, he was chosen king.
Even though he was still a child, he was stopped and made king.
try as he may, he never succeeds.
Despite his hard work, he was always unsuccessful.
change your mind as you will, you will gain no additional support.

As guides concession adverbial clause: predicate adverbial + as + clause.

When as is used as a preposition, a noun can be added after it, and in this case, as is usually translated as "as". For example, as a as a conjunction, leading a clause, there are many kinds of translations, we are more familiar with "as, as if, such as", in addition, there is also "dang".
time", or translated as "because." But no matter what the meaning is, as long as the leading clause is introduced, as must be at the beginning of a sentence.
In compound sentences, a clause that gives in to the main clause, which is generally translated as "notwithstanding" and "even if", is a concession adverbial clause. Although although-led concession adverbial clauses, although are heavier than though and are mostly used at the beginning of the sentence, and can generally be used interchangeably. even if and even though lead the concession adverbial clause, even if though I am a woman, I will work like a man
Even if I am a woman, I will go to work like a man.
