📝 Conjugation Notes
The structure is purely Noun + Particle, so no verb or adjective conjugation is involved on the preceding word. However, the subsequent structure determines which form is used: にって (adverbial) or による (attributive/nominal).
🔊 Pronunciation Tips
The pronunciation is straightforward: に (ni), よ (yo), って (tte). The geminate consonant (っ) in によって requires a slight pause before pronouncing the ‘te’ sound.
🧠 Memory Tips
Think of the kanji 依 (i), meaning “to depend on/rely on.” While not explicitly present, the verb 依る (yoru) from which the pattern derives means “to be based on/rely on.” Remember: **YORU** = **RELY** on. Noun + に寄る (based on Noun).
