About this pattern

Explanation

風 is used to express style or manner in which something is done, or to describe something as being in the style of a certain culture or era. It can attach to a noun to form phrases like Japanese-style or Western-style, or be used with 風に to describe the manner of an action or behavior. It often conveys a sense of flavor, atmosphere, or design rather than the literal wind.
