Tip of the Day: 165 Since as an adverb
Kenneth Beare
From Kenneth Beare, your Guide to English as 2nd Language

Since as an adverb

'Since' has the same meaning as 'because'. An adverb clause using 'since' can precede or follow the independent clause it relates to. Notice that a sentence begun with a 'since' clause is followed by a comma. In the case that a 'since' clause finishes the sentence, no comma is used.
