Did you ever notice what the difference between Because Of and Due to? This seems to be one of the most common mistakes committed by many people.
Because Of is an adverb.
For example:
Because of the rain, we couldn't play tennis yesterday.
He failed the exam because of his carelessness.
Because of the late arrival of the train, I missed my exam.
Due To is an adjective. Due To is often followed by a noun/noun phrase.
For example:
His absence in class was due to the rain.
His success was all due to his hard work during the semester.
In informal speech, we might encounter such improper usage as:
His absence was because of the late arrival of the train.
He came late due to the heavy rain.
