Would the 'bien que' ('even though') examples would work the same if 'même si' was substituted for 'bien que'?

Hi, the lesson states that 'même si' means 'even if' and 'even though'. There are no example sentences of 'même si' being used in an 'even though' context.

Do I assume that all the 'bien que' ('even though') examples would work equally well if 'même si' was substituted for 'bien que'?

This question relates to:French lesson "Bien que/quoique + the subjunctive mood (Le Subjonctif) = although/though in French"

Hi Stewart,

This lesson is already up for review...

In the meantime, I would use

even though = bien que

even if = même si
