because

The German word 'weil' is a subordinating conjunction that is used to introduce a dependent clause. It is used to express cause or reason and is typically translated as 'because' in English. For example, 'Ich kann heute nicht kommen, weil ich krank bin.' translates to 'I cannot come today because I am sick.' It is important to note that 'weil' is usually placed at the beginning of the dependent clause, unlike in English where 'because' is usually placed at the end of the clause.
