Please be patient

Our volunteers look into many questions every day; sometimes it takes them a little while to answer.

Pro tip: you can rename the thread title with `.tr <thread name>`

Make it descriptive, including relevant context, but also to the point. This way you improve your chances of getting a more relevant and specific answer.

when you wanna check your translation, please provide your original sentence as well.
there is indeed a mistake in the sentence, but I can't guess what you meant to say

[jaunty cargo]

OH

okok sorry

i’m new to this

but i was just trying to say “im mad because of this video”

[knotty birch]

this is a pretty literal translation
"j'suis vénère" is correct
"pourquoi" though means why, for what reason.
"because of" is "à cause de"
also, you're lacking an article before "vidéo", just like "this" in your English sentence

HELPME

i thought pourquoi was parce que

ty for helping me realize my mistake

ALSO

if i changed it to « j’suis vénère parce que de vidéo » would it be better

[coarse jetty]

« je suis vénère à cause de cette vidéo »

« parce que » means « because » not « because of ».

« because of » - « à cause de » like flynn said.

« cette » - « this » (in the singular feminine form, according to the subject which in this case is the video. « la vidéo »)

[final scarab]

If it helps, think of 'parce que' meaning 'because' in the sense of 'as'.

J'suis vénère parce que de vidéo
I am irritated as of video.
It doesn't work.

As Lissa and Flynn said, you want both 'à cause de' and then the correct article for 'vidéo', which in this case is 'cette'.

Je suis vénère à cause de cette vidéo.
