I have been struggling to differentiate the 2 で, especially when in cases
where they both can make sense. Outside of the rules that I found that で
particle can only be attached to single standing nouns and cannot be attached
to the B part of AがB sentence directly without の, while で can because it’s the
Te form of だ. I have noticed a pattern of native speech that when the で is
said in a rising pitch, it’s most likely the で as te form of だ and で spoken
with a falling pitch is the で particle. I have thought of this when I saw it
somewhere that the connecting て form in general are meant to sound high pitch
so that it can capture the others attention and signaling the sentence is not
yet finished. This is just my speculation since I have not heard enough
samples yet.
