Many of these are oddly worded so I will do my best.

Knowing that my best friend speaks French very well causes me to want to study French as a second language.

One consequence of studying at the last moment is that you might get bad grades.

Yesterday, the volleyball game was postponed because of rain. perfecto

Due to the fact that I hadn’t any money, I couldn’t buy my grandfather’s gift.

Many of the calls received by the police come as a result of disputes between (among) neighbors.

My friend and I studied all night yesterday thereby getting good grades on the final exam.

I have decided to travel to a foreign country, consequently, I will have to break up with my boyfriend.

Getting bad grades is one cause of not paying attention in class. Me parece un poco raro. Lo prefiero así Not paying attention in class can lead to bad grades. Not paying attention in class can be a major cause of bad grades.

My brother told my friend Ana something in Japanese hence the reaction of my friend. Un poco raro fuero de contexto pero esta oración sí funciona.

He didn't work at all, and thus I was fired. Lo mismo como lo de arriba. Un poco raro sin contexto. Quizas quieres decir que "and thus he was fired"

Hi Pamech, do not use text talk in the Spanish Dict Answers please. It confuses the people that are learning English here.

This is the Rules and Guideline of the forums:

4 - Use correct language Students come here to learn: correct capitalization, grammar, spelling, pronunciation, and punctuation. Chatspeak (lol, cu 2mrow) is not allowed unless as a topic of discussion. The use of ALL CAPITAL LETTERS is not allowed on this site as it is considered shouting and is very rude.*

Thank you and welcome to to forums Pamech!

Enjoy your stay.
