「だって」の情報
だって is a colloquial combination of the auxiliary verb だ, and the adverbial particle とて in Japanese (a combination of the particles と, and て). It has a wide range of uses, but primarily exclaims that something is the 'premise' for whatever has been said, or will be said next. This 'exclamation' is usually translated as 'I heard', 'cause', 'but', or 'even if'. The meaning that will be conveyed is determined primarily by where だって appears in a sentence.
When placed at the beginning of a sentence, だって highlights the speaker's (usually) displeasure about something that has just been said, before following it with an explanation or counterpoint. This だって is quite similar to でも.

- え〜行きたくないよ。だって、俺の元カノも誘ったんでしょう?Awwww maaaan I don't want to go. It's because you also invited my ex-girlfriend, right?
- だって、サメとか怖いもん。It's because I'm afraid of things like sharks.
- レムの実家は農家なんだって。I heard that Rems' family owns a farm.
- キリコは明日から一週間休みなんだって。I hear that Kiriko will be on break for a week starting tomorrow.
Caution
When used directly after a noun, だって has a similar nuance to the だって that appears at the beginning of sentences (emphasizing what has come before it, in order to explain further). This comes across as でも, and may not be used with なん.- 俺だって行きたくないよ。Even I don't want to go.
- そんなこと言ったら、誰だって傷つくよ。If you say something like that, anyone would get hurt.
Fun Fact
The adverbial particle とて itself is an abbreviation of expressions like と言って, and と思って. だとて (the full construction) may also be used, but is almost always replaced by だって, as it is far easier to say.Fun Fact
When used at the beginning of a sentence, もん or もの will often come at the end of that sentence, in order to strengthen the opinion given by the speaker. This is more commonly used by women and children.- 私もそんなもの食べたくないよ。だって、不味いもん。I also don't want to eat something like that. It's because it tastes bad.
- 今日は家から出ません。だって、今日は暑いもの。I am not going to leave my house today. Cause it is hot today.

Because そうだ is not very casual, just regular casual.
