ไวยากรณ์
介词 由于 / 因为 — 引出原因 (三25) Preposition 由于 / 因为 — introducing a cause (三25)
由于 / 因为 + 原因 (名词或短语), 直接引出原因, 后面跟结果. 由于一直看手机, 眼睛不舒服. 因为这件事, 他不高兴. 这里"由于 / 因为"作介词, 后面可以只跟一个名词短语, 比"由于…所以…"的整句更简短.
由于 / 因为 + cause (noun or phrase) directly introduces a reason, with the result following. 由于一直看手机, 眼睛不舒服. 因为这件事, 他不高兴. Here 由于 / 因为 act as prepositions — they can take just a noun phrase, shorter than the full 由于…所以… sentence.
- 由于一直看手机, 眼睛不舒服. Yóuyú yìzhí kàn shǒujī, yǎnjing bù shūfu. From looking at the phone non-stop, my eyes hurt.
- 因为这件事, 他不太高兴. Yīnwèi zhè jiàn shì, tā bú tài gāoxìng. Because of this, he's not too happy.
- 由于工作, 他每天很忙. Yóuyú gōngzuò, tā měi tiān hěn máng. Because of work, he's busy every day.
