Because, Because Of, Due To

[Haresh_Chimanpure]

Hello,

I have read some basic things that distinguish Due to Vs Because Of .... But still difference is not clear, please post your strategies for the 3 ....

Because, Because Of, Due To

Let us also discuss a sentence :

The Chambers were closed due to Moisture

The Chambers were closed because of Moisture

Now Help me to identify correct one between the 2 above with reasons ..Thanks !

[sureshnmishra]

due to means 'caused by'

consider the following eg. the match was postponed because of rain

the postponement of the game was due to rain

So applying the same login in ur eg.

The door was closed because of moisture

the closure of door was due to moisture.

hope this helps

[d_taneja]

just replace "due to" by " caused by" you will understood by the menaing

The Chambers were closed caused by Moisture --. does it make sense ( No way) so here due to is incorrect

The Chambers were closed because of Moisture --> better usage
