因为

Structure:

Result , 因为 + Reason

Meaning:

A common way to explain causes in Chinese is with “因为”(yīnwèi). This is almost entirely equivalent to “because” in English. Usually “因为”will begin a new phrase in a sentence.

Examples:

1. 我 不 记得 昨天 的 事情,因为 我 喝 了 太多 啤酒。

    Wǒ bú jìdé zuótiān de shìqínɡ, yīnwèi wǒ hē le tàiduō píjiǔ

    I don’t remember what happened yesterday because I drank too much beer.

2. 我 不 喜欢 汉字,因为 很 难 记。

Wǒ bú xǐhuɑn hànzì, yīnwèi hěn nán jì

I don’t like Chinese characters because they are hard to remember.
