About に即して

(そく)して is a formal grammar structure which is used to express that something is being done for the purpose of handling a matter in the best possible way. It is a combination of に, and the する-verb (そく)する 'in corcordance with (A)', ' in line with (A)' in its て-form. Occasionally, (そく)して 'in following with' will be used instead.

This structure will be used before nouns, or may be used when one noun is directly modifying another. In the case of the latter, (そく)した will be used instead of (そく)して.

Caution

(そく)して is used when things are being done based on circumstances or situations, while (そく)して tends to be used when something is being done in accordance with laws, policies, or standards. There are situations where (そく)して will be incorrect, so (そく)して is often used in both cases in recent years.

  • この計画(けいかく)現実(げんじつ)(そく)していません。
