First example : によれば is used much as によると, but obviously
doesn't have quite the same kana ;-) (contributor: Amatuka)
I don't think 'nioujite' is that close in meaning. (contributor: Amatuka)
I agree with Amatuka. (contributor: Miki)
how about:
? niyoruto =
'according to..' (eg a person who said something)
? nioujite =
according to a certain condition (eg according to how strong you feel...
do X or Y). Guess this is more like 'depending on/according to (your mood)'
can niyoruto be used for the same second meaning?
体力 によると、運動をして下さい。
exercise your strength (contributor: dc)
体力によると、is weird. (contributor: Miki)
hmm, maybe
niyoruto: according to a persons statement
'according to fred/the news/your mum...'
nioujite: according to a condition, or situation
'according to your certificate/the rules/whats written here...'
(contributor: dc)
maybe nioujite is more used for measurable items that vary.
(your age | air pressure | time of day) nioujite
and niyoruto is more reports/information
(your friend | the news | that report) ni yoruto
... ? (contributor: dc)
に応じて means 'in step with' or 'in response to' and that is quite
different from によると, which simply denotes what you are describing
is a hearsay. (contributor: bamboo4)
in response to that tairyoku ni yoruto;
how about 体力の限界の内に、どんどん運動をして下さい
(contributor: Snake)
The Japanese is not natural. This would be slight difference but would be
better.
体力の限度内（げんどない）で、どんどん運動してください。or
できるだけ運動をして下さい。This would be used when a doctor
advise a patient how to recover faster. (contributor: Miki)
i would like to ask about the structure of the sentence in which
'によると”has the meaning'according to'. In vietnam school, i studied
its tag is 'そうです”or 'ようです”and i seached in this webpage
but i cann't find it. please explain it to me. thank you very much.
(contributor: uyen)
ex#3342 (by), #3344 (based on) these によると are not 'accodring to'.
(contributor: Miki)
uyen eg #50 you can also say
友だちの話によれば、あの映画はとても面白いそうです。
(contributor: Miki)
Is it ok to add によれば under the notes/examples as well? (There's
currently no entry for it). (contributor: nadine)
One thing which I've learnt, but never really understood is that:
先生の話によると is correct, but
先生によると is wrong.
May I ask if there's any explanation for this? (contributor: wribbit)
