"Ame ga futteiru"...Shan san, konnichiwa.<br /><br />"Ame ga futteiru" is a complete sentence by itself.<br />"Ame" is just a noun.<br /><br />"kara" is used with a complete sentence when it indicates a reason.<br />"de" is used with a noun/nouns when it indicates a reason.<br /><br />>>> "ame ga futteiru kara, shiai wa chushi desu."<br />"ame de, shiai wa chushi desu."<br /><br />There is one more explanation I should add.<br />When you use "noun + de", the consequence has to be an event without the speaker's intention.<br />For example, "corona no kansen kakudai de, keizai wa taihen desu." (Because of the spread of the coronavirus, the economy is suffering.) <br /><br />If you use "kara" for the above sentence, how would you use it?

I understand the difference between dakara and da kara now but I'm still not clear on de and when you would use de as opposed to either of the others.
