Definition
Used to indicate that something is true to some extent, but not completely; partially or in some respects.
Usage & Nuances
'In part' is formal or neutral, common in written and spoken English. Often used at the beginning or middle of a sentence: 'This is in part my fault.' Can be combined with 'because', e.g., 'This happened in part because...'. Not interchangeable with 'partly' in all contexts; 'partly' is more often used as an adverb directly before adjectives.
