由此可见 (yóucǐ kějiàn) in Chinese
由此可见
由此可见 is a formal conclusion marker meaning from this it can be seen. 由此 points back to evidence or reasoning already presented, and 可见 introduces an inference supported by that evidence. It is common in analytical writing and structured speech; it should not introduce a conclusion unrelated to the preceding material.

Read the structure
由此可见 is a formal conclusion marker meaning from this it can be seen. 由此 points back to evidence or reasoning already presented, and 可见 introduces an inference supported by that evidence. It is common in analytical writing and structured speech; it should not introduce a conclusion unrelated to the preceding material. Keep the model Evidence; 由此可见 + Supported Conclusion visible while you compare each sentence.
两次实验结果一致,由此可见这个方法较稳定。
The two experiments agree, showing that this method is relatively stable.
Choose the right context
After evidence in an argument: 两次实验结果一致。由此可见,这个方法较稳定。 To summarize what a fact demonstrates: 销量连续下降,由此可见需求发生了变化。 In formal explanation where 此 has a clear preceding reference.
销量连续下降,由此可见需求发生了变化。
Sales kept falling, indicating that demand had changed.
Respect the boundary
When no evidence or reasoning appears before 此. Do not reverse the fixed order to 可见由此. Do not insert aspect particles inside the conclusion marker.
两次结果一致,可见由此这个方法较稳定。
(The results agree, showing that this method is stable.)
Repair the pattern
The fixed conclusion marker is reversed: The fixed sequence is 由此 + 可见: the evidence referenced by 此 licenses the conclusion. 了 is inserted inside the fixed expression: 由此可见 functions as one conclusion marker and cannot be split by the aspect particle 了.
两次结果一致,由此可见这个方法较稳定。
Use the repaired structure without changing the intended meaning.

Compare Right and Wrong
Compare the smallest meaningful change. Each explanation identifies a placement, scope, form, or clause relationship instead of treating the whole sentence as one undifferentiated mistake.

08 / QUESTIONS
由此可见 (yóucǐ kějiàn) Questions
What does 此 refer to in 由此可见?
此 points back to the evidence, observation, or reasoning just mentioned. If no clear support precedes it, the conclusion marker becomes logically unsupported.
Is 由此可见 formal?
It is especially common in analytical writing, presentations, and structured explanations. It can appear in speech, but it sounds more organized and inferential than 所以.
