Japanese

<p>We've already learnt <strong>から</strong> to mean <strong>because</strong> or <strong>since</strong>. We're now going to learn another way of giving reasons with <strong>ので</strong>.</p>

<p><strong>ので</strong> and <strong>から</strong> are very similar, but <strong>ので</strong> sounds slightly more formal.</p>

<p>The reason always goes before <strong>ので</strong>, and the only difference between this and <strong>から</strong> is how nouns and な-adjectives are used with it:</p>

<table class="ui celled table">
    <thead>
        <tr>
            <th><strong>ので</strong></th>
            <th><strong>から</strong></th>
        </tr>
    </thead>
    <tbody>
        <tr>
			<td><ruby>元gen</ruby><ruby>気ki</ruby>なので</td>
			<td><ruby>元gen</ruby><ruby>気ki</ruby>だから</td>
        </tr>
    </tbody>
 <tbody>
        <tr>
			<td><ruby>犬inu</ruby>なので</td>
			<td><ruby>犬inu</ruby>だから</td>
        </tr>
    </tbody>	
	
</table>
