    dint

    if by "due to" you mean "because of"

    Are you sure "ela" is right?

    "By dint of" is definitely a legit Engl expression, if a little old-fashioned.

    I don't think there is such a word. It looks like it should be "dint."

    See if your "ela" is wrong, and maybe it is "din."
