Merkitys
A cause explains why something happens or why a situation is as it is. It may be an earlier event, a circumstance, or someone's reason for acting. Languages use linking words, endings, or context, and some have no separate cause marker. Unlike Purpose, Cause explains what brings about an event, not what someone hopes to achieve.
