This paper examines an understudied area of Discourse Markers(DMs), focusing on the DM though found in the discourse-final position in English. Through the analysis of the ICE-GB corpus, this study shows that there is no occurrence of the DM though in the discourse-initial position and that, unlike most English DMs, the discourse-final position is most favored. It also discusses the discourse functions of the DM though and shows that there are no functional differences between its positions of occurrence. Though in both medial and final positions can serve the functions of introducing unexpected statements, mitigating the oppositions and face-threatening acts, and shifting the focus on the current topic. Therefore, it is multi-functional in that it has textual and interpersonal functions
