Example Word

具体: concrete. The Japanese noun '具体 (ぐたい)' refers to something that is concrete, tangible, or specific, as opposed to abstract or vague. It is often used in contexts where clarity or specificity is emphasized, such as in discussions, plans, or explanations. For example: Let's discuss concrete plans「具体の計画を話し合いましょう」(ぐたいのけいかくをはなしあいましょう). The proposal lacks concrete details「その提案は具体性に欠けている」(そのていあんはぐたいせいにかけている). This word is commonly paired with terms like '具体化 (ぐたいか)' (to make concrete) or '具体例 (ぐたいれい)' (concrete example).
