A traditional rule holds that the constructionthe reason is because is redundant, and should be avoided in favor of the reason is that. The usage is well established, however, and can be justified by analogy to constructionssuch asHis purpose in calling her was so that she would be forewarned of the change in schedule or The last time I saw her was when she was leaving for college. All three constructions are somewhat less than graceful, however. ·Whenbecause follows a negated verb phrase, it should be preceded by a comma when thebecause clause explains why the event did not occur. He didn`t marry her, because she was frivolous means roughly, .Her frivolity was his reason for not marrying her..When no comma is used, thebecause clause is understood as part of what is being negated. He didn`t marry her because she was frivolous means roughly, .His reason for marrying her was independent of her frivolity..See Usage Note at as
傳統原則認為結構the reason is because 太累贅,應避免,而贊同使用 the reason is that 。 這種用法被廣泛地接受,並可以用類似的結構證明是正確的,如 呼喚她 的目的是以便 她能預先知道時間安排改變或者 最近 一次 我看見她是她正要去學院時。 然而所這三種結構都有不夠完美的地方。當because 跟著一個否定動詞短語時, 該在它前面加一個逗號來表示這個because 從句解釋的是為什么這件事 沒有 發生。 他不娶她,因為她很輕浮 粗略的意思是, .她的輕浮是他不娶她的原因。.當沒有用逗號時,這個because 從句被理解為被否定的部分。 他不娶她不是因為她輕薄, 粗略的意思是, .他和她結婚的原因與她的輕薄無關。.參見 as
