2. “For and because” both have nearly the same meaning either
can be used very often.
He stayed at home, for/because it was raining.
‘For’ clause has a more restricted use.
A for – clause cannot come first the verb which it explains:
Because he didn’t study he failed.
A for – clause cannot come after ‘not ‘but’ or any conjunction:
He stole, not because he wanted the money but because he
liked stealing.
A for – clause cannot be used in answer to a question:
Why did you do it? – I did it because I like it.
