English term

as odd as it may seem

English to Chinese Tech/Engineering IT (Information Technology) ASP
the Control events are a subset of the events defined by the Page class, and, as odd as it may seem, this is because Page is a subclass of Control. this may seem counterintuitive because Web forms contain Controls, but it allows for a nicely consistent set of interfaces. you’ll see an example of this in part 3 when we show you how to navigate the content hierarchy in a Web form.


其中Control和Page不需要翻译。
这里的as odd as it may seem有没有“虽然.....”的意思?
谢谢!

谢谢Sheldon Fu的详细解释。
Sheldon Fu Oct 24, 2013:
下面是一个较为详细的解释:
a) As strange as it may seem = "(In spite of) how strange it may seem".
b) Strange as it may seem = a or c.
c) Strange though it may seem = "Though it may seem strange".

Clause a references the degree of possible strangeness;clause c references the possibility of strangeness; clause b depends on the interpretation of as, which sometimes, but not always, means "though".

感觉as 译为尽管可能更好一些。
Sheldon Fu Oct 24, 2013:
虽然这看起来有些古怪,下面解释了为什么说看起来古怪:Page是Control的子类,而第一句说的是, Control事件是Page类定义的事件的子集。
Control事件是Page类定义的事件的子集(第一句)与 Page是Control的子类这个事实显得有些矛盾,所以作者说 尽管(Control事件是Page类定义的事件的子集)有些古怪。

确实有虽然的意思,详见下方链接

Hello,

Is there any difference between the following two:

a) As strange as it may seem, ....
b) Strange as it may seem, ....

If you asked me, a non-native speaker, I would say that they mean the same. Am I right?
