In written words, is "por qué" interchangeable with "porque"? I have seen many native speakers type "porque" when I would think it should be "por qué".

Question

Boni_aa · Answer

la mayoría de los hispano hablantes confunden esas palabras

Boni_aa · Answer

El uso corecto es:

¿por qué? is pregunta
and
porque... is respuesta (razón de algo .. like.. becouse)

skeletor · Answer

por qué = why
por que or porque =because
sometimes some  people don't  separate or pull apart the word

matchycadiz · Answer

por que? : why?
porque: because

crstnhndz · Answer

Porque: because.
Por qué: why.
A lot of native speakers (at least on my country) just ignore the grammar rules.

-Alexia25- · Answer

Por qué = Why
Porque = Because
(El) porqué = (The) reason
Por que - it can be used in two different ways, and it's difficult to translate

Many people confuse them. But here some examples:

- ¿Por qué te gusta esto?
-> Why do you like this?

- Porque es divertido
-> Because it's funny

- No sé el porqué de su retraso
-> I don't know the reason of his delay

- Estoy preocupada por que no lleguen
-> I am worried for them not to arrive

- El premio por que lucho es de 10.000 €
-> The prize I fight for is €10,000.

(In the last example the most common thing is to add an article, in this case "el" because "precio" is masculine and singular. So it would be "el premio por el que lucho").

@-Alexia25-  reason is you are specifying it but if you said "because" you are saying "por que" in a simple way

-Alexia25- · Answer

@skeletor ¿? Dilo en español que no te entiendo.

-Alexia25- · Answer

@skeletor ¿Y se puede saber por qué le das dislike a mi cometario? Yo le he explicado todas las formas correctamente y tú se las has explicado mal.......

skeletor · Answer

@-Alexia25-  if you don't know english then don't comment 
before you give dislike  you must reason the opinions

-Alexia25- · Answer

@skeletor Lol, you are the one that can't speak English. Your comment doesn't make any sense 😂😂😂😂

skeletor · Answer

@-Alexia25-  hahahaha you are worst than me

-Alexia25- · Answer

@skeletor Believe whatever you want. But still "por que" doesn't mean "because".

yorumochi · Answer

porqué = because
por qué = why

we just ignore grammar rules a bit

skeletor · Answer

@-Alexia25-    hahahahaha you must go to sleep  
because =por que  reason = la razon  y se dice cuando especificas el por que
ejemplo : yo no comi por que no quize
                la razon es por que no tenia hambre

skeletor · Answer

@eunacake  you are right   @-Alexia25-  just doesn't know english and spanish grammar

-Alexia25- · Answer

@skeletor

Omg, I can't laugh more.

"Yo no comi por que no quize", 3 mistakes in one sentence of 7 words.

And same in the other, "la razon es por que no tenia", 3 mistakes in another 7 words.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

@Nicotosh don't pay attention to that guy if you want to learn proper Spanish.

skeletor · Answer

@-Alexia25-  hahahah I see that you don't know spanish grammar,language etc   
learn and after comment

-Alexia25- · Answer

@skeletor

I don't know Spanish grammar???

Hahaha, omg, just admit that you committed one mistake. You are being so childish and you are even showing how bad at your own language you are.

Ah, and here you have your previous "examples" well written:

-> yo no COMÍ PORQUE no QUISE
-> la RAZÓN es PORQUE no TENÍA hambre

;)

skeletor · Answer

@-Alexia25-   in these sentence what is problem  ? please I need you explain me
I worked with spanish people and all don't know to pronounce "wifi" so they wanted say it like spanish word  hahahahahahahah

-Alexia25- · Answer

@skeletor And you don't know how to pronounce the Spanish word "pijama" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

And don't change the topic, you are just an ignorant who can't admit their own mistakes. Here you have the official page that explains it perfectly: http://www.rae.es/consultas/porque-porque-por-que-por-que I hope discovering that you were incorrect doesn't cause you a lot of trauma 😂

skeletor · Answer

@-Alexia25-   hahahahaha you are bad very bad you just are a hater .
 Now  I understand because Catalunya wants to separate
wifi = gu i fi   
hahahahahahahah don't know to pronounce

-Alexia25- · Answer

@skeletor Stop commenting. You already showed all your ignorance.

-Alexia25- · Answer

@skeletor And don't talk about Catalonia if you don't have f*cking idea. The majority of people in Barcelona (the capital) and Tarragona (so -> Tabarnia) don't want the independence ;)

skeletor · Answer

@-Alexia25-  la verdad no peca pero incomoda   
verdad ?  you just know to say  "vale"  for everything

-Alexia25- · Answer

@skeletor patético lo tuyo, chaval.

skeletor · Answer

@-Alexia25-  tell me why is Carles puigdemont  refuged in Belgium ?
In that map , you are putting Catalunya united with Euskadi
and people Euskadi want to separate too and I know because I  had co-worker Vascos

-Alexia25- · Answer

@skeletor Almost nobody in the Basque Country wants the independence. Just go through the Basque language section and check it by yourlself. See how everybody there has Spain selectioned as their country and how they even make comparisons between the Basque and the Spanish language.

Just stop trying so hard to be correct. You aren't. You are just an ignorant in the Spanish language and even more in politics and things that aren't your bussiness. So now I'll leave, keep showing your ignorance if that's what you like to do.

skeletor · Answer

@-Alexia25-  you are living at fool world created by spanish goverment.
Pep Guardiola  and others person are in favor to separate
You look it even  they don't want to speak spanish, they speak Catalan like already you are wanting to learn  it
Also you look in your first answer where you said :
Por qué=why
Por que=because
por que=reason
Contestas lo mismo Because y pones dislike  en vez de razonar la respuesta de otro atacas sin razonamientos y te ofendes por que te pagan con la misma moneda

-Alexia25- · Answer

@skeletor Al parecer tampoco sabes leer 😂😂😂

Anda, aquí te dejo mi respuesta y lo que tú has dicho para que juegues al "busca las diferencias", a ver cuánto tardas en encontrarlas todas ⬇️😂

skeletor · Answer

@-Alexia25-   hahahaha don't cry  take it easy
have you ever listen the song "the reason"  by hoobastank  ?
They are English , and there they are specifying the word "reason"

Tu misma estas diciendo 2 formas de traducir la palabra y cuando pone el articulo "el"  ahi es cuando quieres especificar un " por que "
Ademas segun el diicionario de la real academia Basura española se escribe separando por que y no juntan las 2 ppalabras  porque
Ignoranteeee

-Alexia25- · Answer

@skeletor Madre mía qué patético eres. A ver si te enteras de que "por qué", "porque", "porqué" y "por que" son cosas totalmente diferentes. Mira el enlace que te pasé de la RAE y punto, ¿ok? Vaya mal sistema educativo tenéis que tener en México, porque vamos, tu estupidez no es normal.

skeletor · Answer

@-Alexia25-    hhahahahaha mira quien lo dice 
ya vete a dormir te esta afectando el pelear sin sentido

-Alexia25- · Answer

@skeletor Vete tú, que eres un ignorante con mil faltas de ortografía en todos los comentarios. Anda, apúntate a clases de español o no intentes enseñar a los demás, así harás un gran favor a los que quieren aprender las cosas correctamente.

skeletor · Answer

@-Alexia25- ya te perdono y te mando un abrazo 

only an advice : por un acento no voy a estar peleando,y si me hubieras corregido "segun tu punto de vista"  sin discutir y razonando mi punto de vista
yo te hubiera dicho "gracias" y no estuvieramos aqui peleando

crstnhndz · Answer

Hola, @-Alexia25-. No quiero alargar más su discusión, pero tú estás en lo correcto. No le des más cuerda, debiste haberte dado cuenta de que ganaste la discusión en el momento en el que el tipo empezó a responder en español.

- Por qué: why.
- Porque: because.

Es bastante lamentable que el tipo se escude por cosas que están pasando en tu país sólo para quedar bien en todo esto.

skeletor · Answer

@crstnhndz  no me escudo , solo mencione por q entiendo q catalunya quiere la independencia de españa y se ofendio a parte que menciono q era ignorante
ademas tu respondiste la misma traduccion que yo   
si escribi en español fue por que no entendia el ingles "segun ella" y corregia sin razon

crstnhndz · Answer

@skeletor ¿de haber sido así por qué entonces le seguiste dando cuerda? Dejemos el tema ahí bro, sinceramente comenté porque me pareció de mal gusto. Que tengas una buena noche.

skeletor · Answer

@crstnhndz segui con el comentario por q detesto a la gente q te censura "poniendo un dislike"  sin saber y creyendo q su argumento es correcto en vez de solo proponer su traduccion y ademas si fuera el caso de q se equivoque alguien en una traduccion solo se le menciona y yo y otros usuarios incluyendote no nos equivocamos 
igualmente buenas noches

Matalya · Answer

Most of the people doesn't know a lot of facts of the spanish, between them are the different between the questioning form and the affirmative form.
Por qué
Para qué
Cómo
Cuándo
Cuánto
Dónde
All those are questioning forms.

Porque
Para que
Como
Cuando
Cuanto
Donde
All those, are affirmative forms.

PORQUE
It express a reason behind a certain action or a cause of said action.
¿Por qué viniste?
Porque necesitaba verte

Why did you come here?
Because I needed to see you

PARA QUE
The only one of every one that goes splitted in two words no matter the form. It's used to show a porpuse or an objective for an action.
¿Para qué viniste?
Para que pueda ver el crepúsculo
Why did you come here?
To see the twilight.

yorumochi · Answer

both of you are correct but you, @-Alexia25- , could be a little nicer about it. there was no need to be rude.. you could have just hit the disagree button and commented the correct answer, along with telling the author of the question that the ones you disagreed on are wrong (in your opinion) :) you could have avoided the entire dispute♡

-Alexia25- · Answer

@eunacake Read the conversation again. That's what I did ⬇️ He was the one who started being rude and then started insulting my country with political things that he doesn't have idea of...

yorumochi · Answer

@-Alexia25- to me it seems like you were the one who started it by saying that he can't speak english. only then did he begin to retaliate

-Alexia25- · Answer

@eunacake Didn't you read all the conversation? Before me saying to him that he couldn't speak English, he told me that I didn't know English just because I told him that I didn't understand his message (a message that didn't make any sense, it was impossible for me to understand it...)

-Alexia25- · Answer

@eunacake

yorumochi · Answer

@-Alexia25- i think he meant that if you don't know english, then you shouldn't comment much in english, and that you should give reason to your opinions before disliking a comment. my friends often send really..... cryptic messages 😂😂 only way i can understand really weird wordings lolol
