※ 引述《dadastyle (最後,台大之路的決戰)》之銘言:
: since可以當"因為", 相當於because
: ex: Since you have finished your work, you can leave now.
: as也可以當"因為"用, 也相當於because
: ex: As he has apologized to me, I am going to forgive him.
: 但是想請問一下 這兩者真的一樣嗎?
: 還是有甚麼更細微的差別呢?
As and since are used when the reason is already known to the listener/reader
or when it is not the most important part of the sentence. As- and since-
clauses often come at the beginning of sentences. The two are relatively formal
"Because" puts more emphasis on the reason, and most often introduces new
information which not known to the listener/reader.
When the reason is the most important part of the sentence, the because- clause
usually comes at the end. It can also stand alone. Since- and as- cannot
be used like this.

再次推薦好書: Michael Swan/ Practical English Usage
我不是書商,純粹覺得這本書真的不錯用。
