    自立: independence. The Japanese noun '自立 (じりつ)' means 'independence'. It refers to the state of being self-reliant or self-sufficient, often in the context of personal, financial, or emotional independence. This word is commonly used to describe someone who can take care of themselves without relying on others. For example: She achieved financial independence「彼女は経済的に自立した」(かのじょはけいざいてきにじりつした). Young people strive for independence「若者は自立を目指す」(わかものはじりつをめざす). The concept of '自立' is highly valued in Japanese society, emphasizing personal responsibility and autonomy.

    法律: law. The Japanese noun '法律 (ほうりつ)' refers to 'law' in the sense of a system of rules established by a government or authority. It is used to describe legal statutes, regulations, or the body of laws governing a society. This term is often used in formal or legal contexts. For example: This law protects the environment「この法律は環境を守る」(このほうりつはかんきょうをまもる). He studies law at university「彼は大学で法律を勉強している」(かれはだいがくでほうりつをべんきょうしている). The nuance of '法律' is broader than specific rules or regulations, as it refers to the overall legal framework.

    率: ratio or rate. The Japanese noun '率 (りつ)' refers to a 'rate' or 'ratio'. It is commonly used in contexts involving statistics, mathematics, or comparisons. For example: the unemployment rate「失業率」(しつぎょうりつ). The success rate is high「成功率が高い」(せいこうりつがたかい). This word is often combined with other nouns to form compound terms, such as 'growth rate' (成長率, せいちょうりつ) or 'interest rate' (利率, りりつ). Note that while 'rate' and 'ratio' are closely related, they are distinct concepts: 'rate' often implies a measure over time, while 'ratio' is a comparative measure between two quantities.
