Use "even if" when it is followed by something contrary to fact (not believed to be true). For example:
Even if pigs could fly, they would not go to the trouble of doing it.
Pigs can't really fly, so the statement is contrary to fact.
Use "even though" when it is followed by something that is believed to be true. For example:
Even though pigs can run, they seldom do so.
Pigs really can run.

"Even though" can be translated to "bien que" or "même si" in French, depending on the context of the sentence.
No. The correct expression is "even though." Correct: Even though the assignment wasn't due until Friday, Ella decided to get an early start on it. Incorrect: Even although... Ouch, that's just bad. I can't even finish the sentence. But you get the idea. ;)
Not unless the sentence requires a pause at that point.
"Even though" is a common phrase used in formal and informal contexts to introduce a contrast or concession in a sentence. It is not considered colloquial; rather, it is a standard English phrase.
Even though I am smart, I do not know everything.
"He killed someone even though he knew he would go to jail for it"
Even though I had already eaten, I couldn't resist the offer of a piece of cake.

"Even though" is used when something conflicts with other known facts or in spite of these facts. For example, "John went on the ferris wheel with Jane even though he has a fear of heights." Or, "Jane stayed out late with John even though she knew she would be punished when she got home."
