whereby
의미: By which; through which; by means of which. A formal relative adverb used to introduce the method or process by which something happens.
Whereby is a formal linking word used in academic, legal, and professional writing to describe the mechanism or process through which something is achieved. It functions like 'by which' or 'through which' and is typically used after nouns like 'system,' 'process,' 'arrangement,' 'mechanism,' or 'agreement.' While somewhat old-fashioned in everyday speech, it remains standard in formal written English.
