Okay, first, I'm terrible with English terminology like subordinate clauses, privatives, etc. Also it seems everywhere I go with the question of be- I either don't understand what it's saying because, again, I don't understand English terminology, or the answers I can understand are different to each other. I know I'm stupid, but Help?

Your question is very vague - and I'm not clear what you're asking, apart from the fact that it has something to do with "be-" being used as a prefix. You have given no examples of words prefixed with "be-" that you may be thinking of - but you have used one word beginning "be-" in your question, namely "because". Without further clarification, I have to propose closure of your Q. on the grounds that it is not clear what you are asking. Please give examples of "be-" words that you are thinking of.
