青いペンで書いたから
Meaning:
“Because he wrote it with a blue pen.”
This answers the question:
**「男の人の書いたものは、どうしてダメだと言われましたか。」**
(Why was the man's writing said to be unacceptable?)
✔ The woman first says it is hard to read,
→ but she immediately adds:
**「まあ、それは仕方がないけど、これじゃダメよ。」**
(“Well, that can’t be helped, but this is no good.”)
✔ The real reason is:
**「青いペンじゃなくて、黒いペンで書かなきゃ。」**
(“You must write with a black pen, not a blue one.”)
→ So the writing is unacceptable **because he used a blue pen**.
Example:
「青いペンじゃなくて、黒いペンで書かなきゃ。」
(You must write with a black pen, not a blue one.)
