=================================
アメリカ人が困惑する日本語「検討します」を英語にしてみる
=================================
アメリカ人にとって非常に厄介な日本語が「検討します」という言い回しです。日本人はこの表現を、話を先延ばしたり、依頼を断ったりするニュアンスとしても使っていますが、アメリカではそのように曖昧な返事をする習慣がありません。なので今回は、そのことを予め踏まえたうえで、英語では「検討する」をどのように表現するかをご紹介しようと思います。
--------------------------------------------------
1) Consider _____
→「〜を検討する」
--------------------------------------------------
取引先や顧客からのオファーを受け入れるかどうか、真剣に考えていることを表す場合は、一般的にConsiderが使われます。決断をする前に慎重に考えることを意味し、メールやフォーマルな場で使われることが一般的です。
✔「〜を検討します」 → 「I will consider _____.」
✔「〜は検討中です」 → 「_____ is/are under consideration.」
✔日本で「検討をする」というと、相手のオファーを断るニュアンスが含まれる場合もありますが、アメリカでは「検討をする」=「真剣に考えて返事をする」のニュアンスがあるので気をつけましょう。断る場合は「I must decline your offer」や「I've decided not to accept your offer」とはっきり伝えましょう。
<例文>
I'll consider it.
(検討いたします。)
I'm considering whether to sign up or not.
(申し込むかどうかを検討しています。)
The proposal is under consideration.
(その提案は検討中です。)
--------------------------------------------------
2) Think about _____
→「〜を検討する」
--------------------------------------------------
この表現はConsiderと意味は全く同じですが、会話で使われることが一般的です。相手のオファーに対して「I'll think about it(検討します)」は1つの決まり文句です。Considerと同様、「断る」ニュアンスは含まれません。
✔「〜を検討します」 → 「I will think about _____.」
✔「検討します」 → 「Let me think about it.」
<例文>
I'll think about it.
(検討します。)
Did you get a chance to think about it?
(ご検討していただけましたでしょうか?)
Think about it and let me know next week.
(ご検討のうえ、来週までにご連絡いただけますでしょうか。)
--------------------------------------------------
3) Seriously consider _____
→「〜を前向きに検討する」
--------------------------------------------------
「前向きに検討する」をConsider positivelyと英訳している人をよく見かけますが、アメリカ英語ではちょっと不自然に感じます。オファーを受け入れる可能性が非常に高い場合はSeriously considerがナチュラルでしょう。
✔Give _____ (some) serious considerationも同じ意味合いを持つ言い回し。
✔会話ではConsiderの代わりにThinkがよく使われます。
<例文>
We are seriously considering placing an ad on your site.
(御社のサイトに広告を掲載することを前向きに検討しています。)
Please give it some serious consideration.
(前向きなご検討を何卒よろしくお願いします。)
He's seriously thinking about buying that car.
(彼はあの車を購入することを前向きに検討しています。)
--------------------------------------------------
4) Thank you for your consideration
→「ご検討の程よろしくお願い致します」
--------------------------------------------------
取引先などに何かを提案したり、仕事を依頼する時に使われる決まり文句です。メールでは結びの一言として最後に加えることがよくあります。
<例文>
Thank you for your time and consideration.
(ご検討の程よろしくお願い致します。)
Thank you for taking the time to consider my application.
(ご検討の程よろしくお願い申し上げます。)
※結びの言葉として仕事を依頼をする時によく使われる。
Thank you for your consideration of this request.
(当リクエストのご検討、何卒よろしくお願い致します。)
--------------------------------------------------
5) Sleep on it
→「(1日)検討します」
--------------------------------------------------
直訳は「一晩寝てよく考える」になり、何か重大な決断を迫られた際に、その場で即決や即答を避けたいときによく使われます。また、それほど重要な決め事でない場合でも、翌日に返事をしたい意思を間接的に伝える役割も果たします。
✔I'll give it some thoughtとI'll think it overも同じ意味合いを持ちますが、翌日までに返事をするといったニュアンスは含まれません。
<例文>
Let me sleep on it.
(検討します。)
I'll give it some thought and get back to you next week.
(検討して、来週までに連絡いたします。)
I need to think it over before I make a decision.
(決断をする前に、しばらく検討させてください。)

[ 10年感情的道别 | Goodbye My 10 Years Relationship ]
10年真的不短,很遗憾无法一起走到最后。
求婚了,却早已错过应该发生的时间点。
面对瓶颈考验的爱情在挽救期中感性被理性打败了,写下句号。
我们分了。我们都很不舍,但确实分了。
很抱歉,令所有期待的家人朋友失望了。
这10年里她对我很好,无可挑剔;而我做不好的我全都承认,是我的理所当然及舒适心态导致了今天的所有,我诚心道歉。
对于一直关心我俩的亲朋好友,感恩过去所有的祝福,也谢谢这些年的见证。
对于曾煽动我们分手的朋友们,抱歉拖了那么久,往后不需煽动了。
我特别要感谢彼此的家人、爱我们的家人们。这些年让大家心中累计的担忧及不满实在不应该,让大家操心了,诚恳地鞠躬致歉。谢谢这些年的爱与包容,打从心里的感恩,谢谢。
在这里,至这位10年前为我化妆而邂逅的,10年来风雨不改以我为先的,让我在爱情里一夜长大的她 – Mey ,谢谢你一切付出、包容、体谅及信任,完整了我生活许多的缺失区块,也为我生命彩出了鲜艳的色彩。谢谢你总无条件地支持我每个决定,即使以世界为敌你还是站在我身旁。谢谢你无限的精神鼓励,让我即使在烂透的状态下也努力撑过去,因为我知道至少还有你这位铁粉的守候。万语千言在心中说不尽,我想你知道的。谢谢你,真心真心地谢谢你。正如我十年前为你写的歌 – “美丽意外“里的歌词,至今,我仍觉得遇见你是个美丽的意外,真的。
容我忍泪再次公开说, Mey Ng , 我爱你。
面对10年感情的结束,难过是肯定的。
即使平时爱笑的我们,也为这次的句号流了好多公升的泪。但我们答应彼此会带着所有开心的记忆把对方放在心中一个特别的位置。换了身份,没了昵称,不管未来缘分如何,我们都会是彼此继续珍惜的那位。
最后,公开这首十年前写给她的歌,也是十年后我重新录制十周年版本向她求婚的作品。MV里记录了过去十年的精选画面,婚没求得成,但我们都认为这首歌是纪念这10年的最初;10年的最终,最佳的礼物,也要谢谢歌曲的幕后团队 : Keon Chia 佳旺 (金马旺) 的 编曲 / 制作 / 录音 /配唱 , Isabell Jia Jia 沁嘉 的 合音编写 / 合音 , Haw Vee 文浩 的混音。他们是少数知道我求婚计划也期待着好消息的朋友。。。可惜让你们失望了,谢谢你们的一切付出与耐心,我都真心感激。
爱情其实只有你和我,但考虑到彼此有太多共同朋友,为了避免揣测还是决定做个交代。谢谢大家这十年的祝福。当你看到这贴文时我俩的脸书感情状态应该已经更新。
是很意外,连我俩都为这样的今天感到意外,如果是注定意外,至少让它是个 [美丽意外],好吗?
爱要及时,记得好好珍惜依然在你身边的那位,衷心祝福大家。
缘起缘灭感恩一切,合十。
10 years, regret that we couldn’t make it till the end.
I proposed, but had missed the right timing to do it right.
After went through the consideration period, rational beat sentimental, it ended.
Yes, we broke up. It’s really hard to accept, but yes, we broke up.
Truly regret to all friends and families’ members who had expectation on us. For the past 10 years, she’s perfect. For all the wrong which I made, I’ll take all the blame. I’m truly sorry, for the relationship which I care so much.
To all friends who care about both of us throughout these 10 years, thanks for witnessing us.
To those who didn’t expect good ending, sorry for the long waiting.
I would like to specially thank both of our family’s members. I can understand all the worries and dissatisfactions throughout the years. Really shouldn’t allow those to happen. I Sincerely apologize. Sorry.
Hereby, I would like to thank her, the girl I crushed into when she did make up for me 10 years ago, the girl who always put me as priority for the past 10 years, the girl who used 10 years’ time to grew me up in the world of love – Mey , Thank you for everything, you completed a lot of my missing part in life and had brighten up my days with different colours. Thanks for always standing by my side although when the world disagree on me. Thanks for your bottomless mental support which let me went through lots of down time as I always know there’ll at least be a super fans forever, it’s you. As of now, I still feel like knowing you is 1 of the most beautiful accident in life, and you able to calmed me down whenever and wherever you were around. It’s more than words, I’m sure you knew it, thank you so much, sincerely.
Allow me to hold my tears and say this 1 more time openly, Mey, I love you, as always.
10 years long run coming to an end, for sure it’s really hurt and sad.
But we’ll promise to bring along all happy memories and place each other at a special point in our heart. You will always be a person that I care about.
Lastly, sharing out the song I wrote for her 10 years ago, and it’s being re-produced again into a 10th year anniversary version for my proposal purpose. The MV are made by all key moments we been through together. Although my proposal failed, but we do think it’s a best way to conclude and remember those 10 years, from the beginning to the end. Thanks to the song production team : Keon Chia (Golden Horse Award Winner 2020) for Music Arrangement, Produce, Recording, Vocal Guide. Thanks to Isabell Jia Jia for the background Vocal & Background Vocal Arrangement. Thanks to Haw Vee for the Mixing. They were the few who knew my proposal plan and awaiting the good news …. However, sorry to let you all down. Thanks to all the effort, it’s my honor to have you guys in this important journey and I deeply appreciate it in heart.
Love actually is just you & me, but we decided to explain about this to avoid any assumptions as we got too many mutual friends. Thanks to all lovely wishes for the past 10 years. When you see this post, I believe our relationship status on FB had changed.
Yes it’s really an accident to our relationship, even to ourselves. If it’s meant to be an accident, at least let it be a “Beautiful Accident”.
Always express your LOVE before too late and appreciate he/her who still together with you. Best wishes to everyone.
With Love, Sorry and Thanks.

Thank you all for attending Startup Bootcamp II: Show It Off last week! Here’s a recap of a few important points covered:
👉🏻 When making a pitch deck, think “how to present information effectively” using the concepts of consistency, alignment, and colors of best practice.🌿🌿
👉🏻 When marketing on social media, think who your target audience is, purpose of content, and take into consideration the demographic of the social media platforms!
👉🏻 Your company profiles on LinkedIn, Crunchbase, and other platforms of the like should be authenticated and should reflect your company’s true culture!
👀 Make sure to keep these points in mind when “building your image for global success”! 🔥
✨✨✨ For those you who weren’t able to make it this time, we will be having our third and last Startup Bootcamp later this year. Stay tuned for more upcoming information and see you all there!

Yokohama, a popular Chinese restaurant chain! We visited "Chinese Ramen Yangshu Shonin Shin-Yokohama Store" in Yokohama City, Kanagawa Prefecture. This is a Chinese restaurant chain with dozens of stores mainly in the Tokyo metropolitan area. There is a wide selection of popular menus such as ramen, dumplings, and fried rice, and it is attractive that you can eat it anytime. This time, I added dumplings to eat ramen and "rainy day service" for a limited time. I'm looking forward to your first shop, so thank you!
