                              Do you know the difference
                                             between
                                   because and because of?

A - Because / Because of 

The difference between these two words is that because is followed by a subject + verb, and because of is followed by a noun: 

• The game was canceled because of the rain. 

• The game was canceled because it was raining. 

In spoken English, many people say ’cause as a short form of “because.”
