being that
Considering the fact
Being that is a conjunction meaning "since" or "given that," introducing a reason or explanation: Being that it's raining, we should stay inside.
The phrase is informal and more common in speech than writing.
Some consider it nonstandard, preferring "given that" or "since" in formal contexts.
