Adverbs of reason and result show that a second statement follows logically from a first statement. When you use words such as therefore, consequently, thus, or hence, you present an outcome or decision based on facts your listener already heard. In contrast, because introduces the cause itself. Knowing whether you are presenting the origin of an event or its outcome determines which word you should choose.

The delivery truck broke down; therefore, the morning orders arrived late.
