CAUSE AND EFFECT – There is no effect if there’s no cause and vice versa. Here are the definitions and examples.
As a result, therefore, consequently, so that, accordingly, as a result of, due to, because, owing to are just some of the words you can find in sentences and essays that reflect a cause and effect relationship.
In sentences or essays, you may state the effect first before the cause or vice versa.
According to Pro Writing Aid, the cause is “a catalyst, a motive, or an action that brings about a reaction”. This “instigates an effect”. The effect, on the other hand, is a “condition, occurrence, or result generated by one or more causes”. Simply put, effect is the outcome.
Why it happened is the cause and what happened is the effect. American poet Ralph Waldo Emerson described this relationship as the “two sides of one fact”.
