Slide 25 - Question ouverte
Notice the difference between English and Dutch in the use of a comma
Because has a straightforward job to do in the English language. It is one of several words and phrases used to introduce a “clause of purpose.” A clause beginning with because answers the question “Why?” and that clause is automatically subordinate to an independent clause. There should generally be NO comma between the two.
An exception can and should be made when the lack of a comma would cause ambiguity (dubbelzinnigheid). See the next slide for examples.
Slide 26 - Diapositive
Examples
Slide 27 - Diapositive
Examples of an ambiguous sentence with because
You DON'T have to know or understand the information on the next slides! It is just for those of you who are curious.
If you're not, skip slides 29 - 33 and go straight to slide 34!
The next slide will give you examples of the differences in meaning when you do use a comma with because.
Slide 28 - Diapositive
If a sentence will be ambiguous (dubbelzinnig/onduidelijk) without a comma before because, it is better to insert one and avoid misleading your reader. The most problematic sentences containing because are often those that begin with a negative statement. Take this example:
Alex didn’t win the race because of his level of ability.
Slide 29 - Diapositive
Example: Alex didn’t win the race because of his level of ability.
This sentence might imply that Alex won the race, but that ability was not the most important factor contributing to his victory. Perhaps Alex has an extraordinary ability to dig deep and persevere over long distances.
Example:
Alex didn’t win the race because of his level of ability. He won because he knows how to dig deep and keep running no matter how hard it gets.
Slide 30 - Diapositive
Or perhaps Alex is a rascally scoundrel and won for completely different reasons.
Example:
Alex didn’t win the race because of his level of ability. He won because he cut across a farmer’s field.
Slide 31 - Diapositive
Either way, without a comma before because, it can be implied that there was no relationship between Alex’s victory and his level of ability. However, if your intention is to convey that Alex lost and that his level of ability was the reason, insert a comma to make the causation clear.
Example:
Alex didn’t win the race, because of his level of ability.
Slide 32 - Diapositive
With the comma in place, it becomes clear for the first time that Alex was in fact not the winner of the race, and that his ability is probably not at a sophisticated level. This sentence might lead to another sentence supporting the idea that Alex’s running ability is quite low.
Alex didn’t win the race, because of his level of ability. I’m hoping that he will improve with practice and keep trying hard.
See what a difference a comma can make?
