Since when is "although" a clause?? I would consider "although" a word :o)
Having said that, I believe your question is what type of clause "although" introduces: clauses of concession.
Clauses of concession can also be introdcued by while, when, if, even if, even though.
adverb
Although you sing well, we have no soprano positions left.Your clause is in bold. It's an adverbial clause, also known as an adverb clause.Adverbial clauses begin with the words: when, while, where, as, since, if, although, whereas, unless, and because.
It is a conjunction that connects an adverb clause (called a clause of concession). This would be more obvious if there were a comma displayed after the word old.
"You played tennis anyway" is the independent clause; "although it was raining" is the dependent clause. An independent clause can stand on its own as a sentence, but a dependent clause cannot be a sentence.
The subordinate clause of the sentence is -- Although the ostrich is a bird
adverb
The word is spelled although. An example sentence using this word is, "Although the cat was scared, it did not become aggressive."
A type of conjunction that commonly appears at the beginning of a dependent clause is a subordinating conjunction. Subordinating conjunctions such as "because," "although," and "if" are used to introduce dependent clauses and show the relationship between the dependent clause and the independent clause.

A subordinating conjunction begins a subordinate clause. It connects the subordinate clause to the main clause and shows the relationship between the two. Examples of subordinating conjunctions include "although," "because," and "if."

The lack of punctuation puzzled me for a time, but I would say so, since 'French' is describing 'word'.

Yes. Although (even though) is used as a subordinating conjunction, to connect a dependent clause that provides a counterpoint to the independent clause.
