なればこそ

[Precisely because of that / It is for this very reason]

Connection: Standalone or after a clause + なればこそ

Usage: A literary/formal expression combining the classical conditional なれば with こそ for emphasis. Means "it is precisely for this reason that..." Often used to justify or explain a subsequent action or state. Very formal and rhetorical.

Examples:

困難な時代なればこそ、団結が必要なのだ。(It is precisely because these are difficult times that unity is needed.)

大切な人なればこそ、真実を伝えなければならない。(It is precisely because they are someone important that I must tell them the truth.)

この仕事が好きなればこそ、厳しい環境にも耐えられる。(It is precisely because I love this job that I can endure the harsh environment.)
