Be affected by something else

To be changed or decided by something else.

نمط الاستخدام: [something] depends on [something]
خطأ شائع:
Learners sometimes confuse 'depend' with 'rely' without 'on'. In English, 'depend' almost always needs 'on' (e.g., 'depend on someone').
المرادفات
hinge on (Slightly more figurative but common in the same contexts.)
الأضداد
be independent of (Describes something not affected or determined by another factor.)

Be decided later by conditions

To say that you do not know yet because it will be decided by something else.

المرادفات
be conditional (More formal term for being based on certain conditions.)
الأضداد
be certain (Indicates something is fixed and not subject to change.)
