   この学説がくせつは３部ぶから成り立なりたっている。↗

   This theory consists of three parts.

• Synonym理論りろんNeutralRefers to a theory as a systematic, organized body of ideas (「理論と実践」), while 「学説」 stresses an academic claim advanced by a particular scholar.
• SynonymセオリーNeutralA loanword for theory or the established way of doing things (「セオリー通り」); in everyday speech it often means the standard play or usual approach.
• Synonym説せつNeutralThe most general word for a claim, view or account (「新説」「諸説ある」); unlike 「学説」 it is not limited to academic contexts.
• Related原理げんりNeutralMeans principle — a fundamental law or rule that holds across many cases (「てこの原理」); 「学説」 is a scholarly claim, not a basic law.

For an academic claim put forward by a scholar, use 「学説」 (「新しい学説」「学説を唱える」). Use 「理論」 for a systematic theory, 「原理」 for fundamental principles, and 「説」 for general claims or views.
