It's not used often in casual conversation, in a professional setting "owing to" is used as much as due to (and etc)

"Because of" and "since" are used more in casual conversation. They are structured differently, though. A verb usually has to be included in the use of "since". For example: "Since it rained (today), I couldn't play basketball." An example with "because of": Because of the rain (no verb connected with rain), I couldn't play basketball."

Where did you see owing to? I've never seen that. We say due to or because of

@SeanSolar yeah that is what I know. I put "since" as an option since I could decide to make a sentence rather than use just one word. thx btw

It doesn't, but it's less heard of in a friendly conversation.

@tytalk ah in the panel of an exhibition I would say.. actually I'm working on it and somebody used "owing to" but I also know that it isn't that "common" word to use so I want to replace it with other thing but I'm curious if it has some special sense or nuance.

"Owing to" and "due to" are both formal, but I see "owing to" more in books that give explanations about events. I see "due to" used more in companies, schools, websites, etc. explaining why they will be closed for a period of time, or why there are some technical difficulties.
