Always use formal language. Avoid contractions like "don't" or "can't" (write "do not" or "cannot") and avoid slang.

💡 À retenir : L'examen national exige un style formel et académique.

What is the difference between "due to" and "because of"?

They are grammatically similar and both express a cause. They are followed by a noun or a gerund (-ing). Example: "The problem is due to poverty." / "The problem is because of poverty."

💡 À retenir : Ils sont interchangeables dans la plupart des contextes.

Can I use "so" to link ideas?

Yes, but "so" is slightly informal. In a formal essay, it is better to use "therefore" or "consequently" to show the result.
