Because, for, since, as
I've read that since and as are used interchangeably in this context (cause and consequence)
But BECAUSE has a different connotation
And for is used the same than Because but it's more formal
So my question is what I read is true ?
Can I say
I'm leaving as I'm tired
Or
As I'm tired I'm leaving
Or
Why are you leaving ?
Because/AS I'm tired...

Of the options listed, “Because I’m tired” would be the most common response. All three would be easily understood but “I’m leaving as I’m tired” doesn’t sound like something a native English speaker would normally say. If I were making a comment and not answering a question I would probably say “since I’m tired, I’m leaving now” or something like that. Hopefully this helps!! ¡Saludos desde Atlanta Georgia!
