Learn Japanese - The Complete Video Series (presented by becauseofdreams) - 「Learn Japanese」 NOUN + 次第 (だ/で) as “depends on NOUN”

「Learn Japanese」 NOUN + 次第 (だ/で) as “depends on NOUN” The noun 次第 (しだい), which can translate to “dependent upon,” can be used with a NOUN to express that something is dependent upon said NOUN. This something can simply be another entity (in which case だ or です is used to close the statement), as well as an action, in which case the particle で follows after 次第 to connect to the verb phrase. Example(s): 来週の試験の難しさは先生次第です。 Raishuu no shiken no muzukashisa wa sensei shidai desu. (How hard next week’s test is going to be depends on our teacher.) このライブは観客のエネルギー次第で長くなれる。 Kono live wa kankyaku no energy shidai de nagaku nareru. (This concert can go on long depending on the crowd’s energy.) 次の試合が勝てるかどうかはチームワーク次第だ。 Tsugi no shiai ga kateru ka douka wa teamwork shidai da. (Whether or not we can win the next match depends on our teamwork.) 自分の考え方は他の人々の影響次第で深くなる。 Jibun no kangaekata wa hoka no hitobito no eikyou shidai fukaku naru. (Your own way of thinking becomes deeper depending on the influence of other people.) ✧¸¸.•*¨*• •*¨*•.¸¸✧ Support Learning Japanese on Patreon!
