[文法] since 和because

[GooLoo (平凡)]

Please excuse me since I can't attend.
                 ^^^^^

請問這邊的since 我想應該是當"因為"

想問一下,用because可以嗎?

用since與because有不同意義嗎?

推 bunnies:please excuse me for not being able to attend (this
→ bunnies:event) 好像比較好
→ bunnies:用since或because都有點奇怪
→ Skabo:這兩件事情根本不是因果關係 所以兩個都怪怪的
→ heloiselu:推樓上!
推 bilingualism:since不一定只能用來表示因果，它也可以用來解釋某事
推 bilingualism:Since you are unable to answer, perhaps we should
→ bilingualism:ask someone else. (摘錄自朗文線上字典)
→ bunnies:樓上說的是對的 但原po此句用since是非常奇怪的
→ l10nel:同意bunnies，since或because都怪，原po的句子出自哪裡？
