This word is often used in contexts related to urban development, engineering, or architecture. For example: The construction of the new bridge will start next month「新しい橋の建設は来月始まります」(あたらしいはしのけんせつはらいげつはじまります). The company specializes in the construction of skyscrapers「その会社は高層ビルの建設を専門としています」(そのかいしゃはこうそうビルのけんせつをせんもんとしています). Note that '建設' can also be used metaphorically to describe the building or establishment of abstract concepts, such as relationships or systems.

    引き延ばす: stretch or prolong. The Japanese verb '引き延ばす (ひきのばす)' has two distinct meanings. The first meaning is 'to prolong' or 'to extend' in terms of time or duration. For example: he prolonged the meeting「彼は会議を引き延ばした」(かれはかいぎをひきのばした). The second meaning is 'to stretch' or 'to elongate' in a physical sense. For example: she stretched the dough「彼女は生地を引き延ばした」(かのじょはきじをひきのばした). This verb is often used in contexts where something is being extended or stretched beyond its original state, whether in time or physical form.
