Japanese Language
「Adjectives and Adverbs」

「Adj pred + nodeので」
”Because," ”So"

珍しい/珍しかったので
Mezurashii/mezurashikatta node
「because... is/was rare」

重大な*/重大だったので
Jūdaina*/jūdai datta node
「because... is/was important」
*Da だ changes to na な

The particle node when used as an adjectival predicate is a conjunction. The node clause (subordinate cluse), is used to express a reason or cause that is more objective or reasonable to the listener than one introduced with kara. Unlike kara, node usually doesn't project the speaker's personal opinion. The node clause is usually not followed by a main clause involving the personal opinion, volition, command, or invitation of the speaker.

Examples:
この特産品は珍しいので、観光客に人気があります。
Kono tokusanhin wa mezurashii node, kankōkyaku ni ninki ga arimasu.
This local product is rare, so it is popular with tourists.

図書館は静かな/静かだったので、よく勉強出来た。
Toshokan wa shizukana/shizuka datta node, yoku benkyō dekita.
Because the library was quiet, I could study well.

その問題は重大なので、今会議で討議している。
Sono mondai wa jūdaina node, ima kaigi de tōgi shite iru.
Because that problem is important, it is being discussed in the meeting now.

Hope this helps!

じゃまたね!
