That's Why: Bu yüzden
When things go wrong—like heavy traffic or bad weather—you need a way to explain the outcome. To connect a cause directly to its natural result, you can use bu yüzden (that's why / therefore).
| The traffic is very heavy today, that's why I am running late. | Bugün trafik çok yoğun, bu yüzden gecikiyorum. |
| The tomatoes are going bad, that's why I am not eating them. | Domatesler bozuluyor, bu yüzden onları yemiyorum. |
| It is raining a lot, that's why we are getting wet. | Çok yağmur yağıyor, bu yüzden ıslanıyoruz. |
For This Reason: Bu nedenle
Another very common way to express "therefore" is bu nedenle. The word neden means "reason," so this phrase literally translates to "with this reason" or "for this reason."
It works exactly the same way as bu yüzden, and the two are completely interchangeable.
| There is an accident on the road, therefore the bus is running late. | Yolda kaza var, bu nedenle otobüs gecikiyor. |
| I oversleep every morning, therefore I am buying an alarm. | Her sabah uyuyakalıyorum, bu nedenle alarm alıyorum. |
For This: Bunun için
Finally, you can also use bunun için. Because için means "for" and bunun means "of this," the phrase translates literally to "for this."
Just like the previous conjunctions, it perfectly bridges an everyday problem with its logical consequence or solution.
| The child has a fever, that's why he is not going to school. | Çocuğun ateşi var, bunun için okula gitmiyor. |
| I do not want to get wet, therefore I am taking an umbrella. | Islanmak istemiyorum, bunun için şemsiye alıyorum. |
