German

Adverb

deinetwegen

1. because of you (2nd person singular), for your sake

   Das ist alles deinetwegen passiert.

   All of this happened because of you.

2. as far as you (2nd person singular) are concerned (you don't mind if); for all you care

Usage notes

Colloquially, this term is usually constructed with the seperated form (especially in the southern language area), thus wegen dir instead of deinetwegen. In sense 2, however, both are equally common in the vernacular.
