Well, I'm not really sure you wanna learn about my educational background,
given that I was a poor student growing up.
我看中文翻譯,後半段是寫: 因為我從來不是個模範生
所以given有因為的意思?
因為查字典都沒有概念在

以下全部節錄自Garner的MAU,At the head of a statement(most commonly), given is an age-old shorthand wayof saying “assuming as a fact” or “with [the thingstated] supplied as a basis for reasoning.” If whatfollows given is a mere phrase (without a verb),given appears alone—e.g.: “Given her high position,she does have opposition.” Larry Whitham, “Episcop-alians Brace for Divisive Sessions,” Wash. Times, 13July 1997, at A4. But if a clause follows (with averb), a that should accompany given—e.g.: “Giventhat he was a medical student at Brown before turningto professional hockey, Bill McKay might be expectedto be a quick study.” Peter Barrouquere, “McKayLearns How to Wing It,” Times-Picayune (New Orleans), 26 Nov. 1997, at C3. Cf. provided.
