À propos de 的

的(てき) is a 接語尾(せつごび) (suffix) in Japanese that has two primary uses. The first use is very similar to 'as' or 'for' in English, and means 'considering/within the category of (A), (B)'. The second use primarily relates to people, and will be covered later. As a single word, 的(てき) is often likened to adjective endings such as '~ly', '~like', and '~al'.

To use 的(てき), attach it to the end of a noun that you want to express as being the focus point of either a verb or a noun that will come later in the sentence. When describing a noun, 的(てき) will be followed by な (meaning that it becomes a な-Adjective). When describing a verb, it will be followed by に (making it an adverb).

Fun Fact

The second common use of 的(てき) is specifically with the names of people, and highlights that (B) is something that is being considered in regard to (A). (A) being the person mentioned. This may be used either positively or negatively. In English, this is similar to 'that's so (A)', or 'just what you'd expect of (A)'.

Fun Fact

The easiest way to understand and use 的(てき) correctly almost all the time, is by knowing another common suffix, 圏(けん). Let's look at how these suffixes compare:

圏(けん) - Occurring in the sphere of (A), (B). (B) only happens inside of (A).

的(てき) - Speaking in the sphere of (A), (B). (B) can only be said within the sphere of (A).

As we can see here, when you want to convey something that can be said from a specific standpoint, 的(てき) will be a logical choice.

I think this might be a bug in the answer, but want to check here first:

時期＿＿雨が降りやすい。

The hint & answer are “tie it to the verb” with Noun + 的・に + Verb, but doesn’t 時期 describe the 雨 (and so Noun + 的・な + Noun)?

If you look at the translation it’s not modifying rain.

Ah, I see now - it is describing the likelihood of “falling”

Thank you!
