Example Word
直接: directly. The Japanese adverb '直接 (ちょくせつ)' means 'directly'. It is used to describe actions or interactions that occur without any intermediaries or detours. This word is often used in contexts where something is done in a straightforward manner, such as communication, contact, or physical movement. For example: I spoke to him directly「彼に直接話しました」(かれにちょくせつはなしました). The package was delivered directly to my house「荷物は直接家に届けられました」(にもつはちょくせついえにとどけられました). It can also imply immediacy or lack of interference, as in 'directly responsible' or 'directly involved'.
