文法の投稿シリーズ6 - gemäß / に従って

Dietz

Have you ever came across the grammar "in accordance with"?
In corresponds to the German "gemäß". 
Like in "Gemäß den Regeln, wäre das nicht erlaubt". 
E.g. a statement while playing a board game. The move of the player is not allowed.
In English we coud now say, please play in accordance with the rules.
Or more general, please act in accordance with the rules.

In Japanese we would use ”に従って” for expressing this.
ルールを従って行動してください。
