Because he's French, he learns English more quickly.
(He's French, and so he learns English more quickly.)

(yīn wèi means 'because' and suǒ yǐ means 'and so'.  This sentence really translates to "Because he is French, and so he learns English more quickly."  Unlike in English, in Chinese this 'because' and 'and so' are not mutualy exclusive.  The first marks the reason, the second marks the result.)
