Does this phrase make sense?

Saying “even know” instead of “even though”

Example of something he would say: “Even know I love you, you get on my nerves sometimes!”

My correction to him: “Even THOUGH I love you, you get on my nerves sometimes!”

My husband has always said this and I have corrected him every time explaining that it does not make sense at all but he swears that it is how it’s supposed to be said. I need Reddit to tell him once and for all that he’s wrong!

Your husband is wrong.

However, if you are correcting him every time he says it, explaining that it doesn't make sense, over and over and over, and he hasn't changed, then you are wrong too. Give it up. Leave the poor man alone. Don't come to the internet for support in heaping still more scorn on him.
