Hello everyone,

Are the following instructions natural?

1. Use "so" instead of "because" in the following sentence correctly.

He didn't attend the meeting yesterday because he was sick.

Answer/ He was sick so he didn't attend the meeting yesterday.

2. Use "so" instead of "because" in the following sentence to convey the same meaning.

He didn't attend the meeting yesterday because he was sick.

Answer/ He was sick so he didn't attend the meeting yesterday.

P.S. Could you please tell me how you construct that instruction in a natural way?

Regards,

Joseph

S. Could you please tell me how you construct that instruction in a natural way? All you need is a comma before the coordinating conjunction "so".
