What's the difference between "o yüzden", "bu yüzden" and "yani", and when should I use them? I see these words all the time and for me, it seems they are used in the very same situations, but I guess that there are some differences.

"o yüzden" means "because of that" "Bu yüzden" means "because of this" "Yani" mostly means like "I mean" But make sure that the usage of "yani" is really wide. You can use when you wanna say "so", "how", "of course" and more
