through I have just seen a new meaning of "through" to me. A synonym of " because of " or similar The sentence is : she succeded though hard work My question is : Can I use" through " whenever I say " because of " or , is it restricted to some expressions or situations?

Not in all situations. You would not be able to substitute it in a sentance like, "She can not go to the park because of rain". Through in this context generally refers to a method. Example: She succeeded by way of hard work.
