さえ・まで・こそ・てこそ・すら・だにChoice guide

Choosing a focus or extreme-example expressionFirst decide what the emphasis is doing. Use さえ for an extreme example, まで when a range reaches surprisingly far, and こそ to identify precisely the important or correct choice. てこそ makes an action essential to a result. すら is a formal counterpart to ordinary “even,” while だに belongs mainly to established literary expressions about thinking, hearing, imagining, or remembering.6 points · N4–N3–N2–N1
