Though - present - past
Hello....
Though they live next door, they never talked to each other.
********
Is the sentence correct?
Because "live" is present, and "talked" is past, it seems to be ungrammatical.
Shouldn't the "live" be changed to 'lived"?
Though they live next door, they never talked to each other.
