Answer



albeit is synonymous with although (it be) not though it may be. You can use whether it be or though it may be instead of albeit.


albeit has a slightly musty smell, like an old book store.




This is the most direct route to the town, albeit a dangerous one. Brigands are known to rob travelers at musket-point along it.



The most contemporary way of expressing your idea is probably though it may be.
