＊「Ｎ1 に対して Ｎ2」 means 'N2 in regard to N1," as in example # (although, the 'a' in American should be capitalized). It can also mean 'against' as exemplified by example #.
＊「Ｎに対して」 and 「Ｎのに対して」 are different in meaning. The latter means 'whereas' (see example #), but the former doesn't.

| Comments:
| | sagittarius | It seems that there are two basic meanings of に対して. First に対して by itself, which means 'regarding' or 'towards' (#) and のに対して, which means "whereas" (#). do you think the two forms deserve separate entries? | | | bamboo4 | In ex #,慢心 should be correct to 関心.
In ex #, we would normally say 手数料は一万円について、五百円です, instead of 対して. | | | Makai no Kitsune | bamboo4, why that difference? Is there a matter of different meanings? | | |
