 BECAUSE

 BECAUSE OF

because of is the preposition of the word, used before the

noun or pronoun.

…because of + noun (phrase)/ pronoun/ verb-ing
 USE BECAUSE OF

• The use of the word "because of" is used

to modify the entire clause. Thus, we
can use the word to explain a reason for
an action in the clause.
 EXAMPLE BECAUSE
• I need to go to the market because I am running out of food.
• She left this country because she got a scholarship to study
abroad.
• She walks quickly because she is already late for work.
• Because my phone is broken, I bought the new one.
• He bought a new tv because the old one is broken.
 EXAMPLE BECAUSE OF

• My uncle have to leave his family because of the

duty
• because of my parents, I can see the beautiful world
now
• Because of your help, I can open my own store.
• She works really hard because of her family.
• Because of feeling happy, Rina sings loudly.
 BECAUSE DUE TO

• Due to" is an adjective, which means it can

only change the pronouns and nouns, according
to the correct English grammar rules.
 USE BECAUSE DUE TO

• The word "" due to "can only be used to modify a

noun.This word should not be used to explain the reason
for an action in a clause.
• The use of "due to" in a sentence would be appropriate if
the sentence would be logical if the word "due to" was
replaced by "caused by". If the sentence becomes
incorrect after being replaced by "caused by", then the
use of "" due to "is incorrect in the sentence..
 EXAMPLE BECAUSE DUE TO

• This stomachache is due to that food

• My sickness is due to unhealthy food
• His frustration was due to that girl
• My low grade was due to lack of study.
• I missed the class caused by the rain.
