标题: 请教:due to 与 because of 的区别~~
Due to means"cause by". It shoud only be used if it can be substitued with "caused by".

It doed not mean the same thing as "because of",
Incorrect: The game was postponed due to rain.
Correct: The game was postponed because of rain.
Correct: The game's postponement was due to rain.
虽然知道due to与because of不是一回事儿,但是以上面的正确句子为例,rain是原因,比赛推迟是结果,我仍然觉得他们是差不多的,难道是强调的东西不同,侧重点不同?
谢谢各位解答~~

我觉得Due to / since 经常放在居首,表示众所周知的原因。 按这里的例子说due to只能作为 be due to 来用了。 似乎不太全面吧。。

虽然不能说Due to表示原因是错误的,但是,是非正式用法
Due to 是 Adjective.
Because of 是 adverb. 后面+ 名词,变成强调名词
