the only way and thanks for the morning challenge that I can define this word without a dictionary is to list synonyms. Ok, so off the top of my head here goes:

because = therefore, thus, as a result, huummmm,,, let’s see

because is a word (don’t know the exact part of speech???) but the definition I would think um, hummm, a transition that is preceded by a statement or thought that is separated by the word and then what follows explains or generally answers why to the first part of the sentence.

So, this answer was conjured without regard or looking at others answers and without consulting many dictionaries and was typed in about 1 minute. How did I do? Thanks for the nerd brain teaser – gotta love nerdy gurlz!! LMAO

A device of theory. Its used by people who’re no longer confident adequate in themselves and have self assurance they are going to be blessed by having faith in a greater physically powerful capability. A conventional shakedown of peoples tricky earned money willingly given to the church to which the chruch will pay no taxes. If observed to the very be conscious, a individual is enveloped into an area the place they have no selection and the slightest doubt will forged them to hell while they expire. Its very like herding sheep, in basic terms this time the herder will smite you the 2nd you think of otherwise.

be / cause:

be = existance of …

cause = an initiating action creates a reaction

so if “because” is made up of those two words, then a pre-existing action motivated (or caused) another thing to result

‘Because’ means ‘as the result’. It is used to connect a cause with an effect.

For example, My hands are dirty (effect) because (as a result of) I planted some seedlings (cause).
