用法

That was the reason of my leaving France [the reason that I left France].

与

表示相同的意义,但是像

That was the reason why I left France.

那样,在This is, That is等后面接the reason why是较少见的方法。

又,在口语中,有时以because来代替

The reason why I am late is that ....

中的连接词that。

He gave up the plan chiefly because it was not supported by the government.

他放弃该计划,主要因为(它)未获得政府的支持。

(2)The reason (why) ... is后接because的句型在理论上因有重复之嫌而常受非难,实际上却常出现于

【口】

(3)在「不因…而…」的用法中, because之前不可用逗点。

用法

(1)对于Why ...?的应答,通常以because对答:

(2)疑问词why的疑问句可以省去助动词和主词以表示强烈的惊讶:

Why go to London?

为什么去伦敦?

(比较:Why should you [I, we] go to London?)

Why not stay here a little longer?

为什么不在这儿多停留一阵子?

(3)the reason why ...直接成为This is, That is等的补语时,如:

This is why I came here.
