Grammar
Because,because ofandcos,cos of
…Because: meaning and use
Because introduces clauses of cause and reason. It is a subordinating conjunction. This means that the clause it introduces is a subordinate clause, which needs a main clause to make it complete. We use a comma when the subordinate clause comes before the main clause:…Because of
Because of is a two-word preposition meaning ‘as a result of’:…Cos
Cos, a short form of because, is pronounced /kəz/ or /kɒz/ and can also be spelt ’cause. It can be used instead of because (and cos of instead of because of). We often use it in speaking, emails and text messages, especially in informal situations:…Just because,simply because
We can emphasise because with just or simply:…cos
