除了“because”，“因爲”還可以怎麼說？

今天來看“因爲”的多樣表達！

1. As

As it was getting late, I decided to book into a hotel.

因爲天色已晚，我決定找家旅館投宿。

2. Due to

我們可以用due to 替代 because of，用due to the fact of 替代 because。但要注意一點，due to 本質上是用來說明、形容名詞的，所以due to 前要有名詞。比如：

A lot of her unhappiness is due to boredom.

她的不開心主要是因爲無聊。

3. Since

since 不只表達“因爲”，裏面還暗藏了“既然”的意味。

Since we've got a few minutes to wait for the train, let's have a cup of coffee.

既然等火車還需要幾分鐘，我們去喝杯咖啡吧。

4. as a result of sth

Profits have declined as a result of the recent drop in sales.

由於最近銷售量滑坡，利潤下降了。

5.owing to

要注意的是，owing to前面不能是名詞，而應該是一般動詞哦。

The concert has been cancelled owing to lack of interest.

由於響應者寥寥，音樂會被取消了。

6. Thanks to

意思是“幸虧”哦！

It's thanks to Sandy that I heard about the job.

幸虧桑迪我才得知了那份工作的事。

7. For

當for做連詞一般是表示推測的原因，後面要加上完整句子，另外 for 前面要加上一個逗號。

It must have just rained, for the ground is wet.

剛剛一定才下完雨，因爲地上溼溼的。

8. Out of

I took the job out of necessity because we had no money left.

我不得已接受了這份工作，因爲我們沒錢了。

9. Now that

She's enjoying the job now that she's got more responsibility.

因爲承擔了更多的職責，所以她很喜歡這份工作。
