Resumo da lição
因为 + Reason,所以 + Result: 因为...所以... means 'because... so...' Use 因为 before the reason and 所以 before the result.
This pattern connects a cause and a result. The standard beginner order is 因为 + reason, 所以 + result. In daily speech, sometimes one part can be omitted if the meaning is clear, but the full pattern is best for HSK2 practice. Do not use 但是 when the second clause is a result. 但是 is for contrast, while 所以 introduces a result.
