This grammar point also looks incorrectly structured, should it not be : Decision result A. どうしてかというと reason B Decision result A. なぜなら ( ば ) reason B Decision result A. なぜかというと reason B

Instead of なぜなら + ば, shouldn’t it be なぜなら (ば) ?

In all of the examples I only saw one that added the ぱ。

Actually, it had been set to that, but there was an issue with the formatting.

Also planning on updating the option text a bit so it is more obvious that it's optional.


Thanks for pointing it out!
