I have written that なりに can, as well as following nouns, it can follow an い-adj to say that the subject does something in a manner appropriate to that adjective, in its own way. So: 私なりに = in my own way, as best I can 私は幼いなりに = in my own childish ways, childish as I was Should we add the 「い-adj + なりに」 grammar to the top definition?
