Gramática de hoje

〜からといって

Just because ~ (doesn't mean ~)

Formação
  • V普通形 + からといって
  • いA + からといって
  • なA + だ + からといって
  • N + だ + からといって

Means that one reason alone is not enough to conclude or justify something. The second half is negative, such as とは限らない, わけではない, わけにはいかない or てはいけない. It is often used to correct a common assumption or someone's judgment. In casual speech it becomes からって.

Exemplos

  • 値段ねだんが高たかいからといって、品質ひんしつがいいとは限かぎらない。

    Just because something is expensive doesn't mean it's good quality.

  • 日本人にほんじんだからといって、敬語けいごが上手じょうずに使つかえるわけではない。

    Just because someone is Japanese doesn't mean they can use honorific language well.

〜からこそ

Precisely because ~

Formação
  • V普通形 + からこそ
  • いA + からこそ
  • なA + だ + からこそ
  • N + だ + からこそ

Strongly emphasizes a reason: it is precisely this, and nothing else. The sentence often ends with のだ or のです. It is also used to present a reason that goes against common expectations, such as 忙しいからこそ休む (I rest precisely because I'm busy). The reason is one the speaker sees as important; it is not used for excuses.

Exemplos

  • 家族かぞくが応援おうえんしてくれたからこそ、ここまで頑張がんばれたのだ。

    It's precisely because my family supported me that I was able to keep going this far.

  • 忙いそがしいからこそ、休やすみの日ひはゆっくり過すごすようにしている。

    Precisely because I'm busy, I make sure to relax on my days off.

Leitura

納豆と小さな習慣 Natto and small habits

体からだにいいと聞きくと、その食たべ物ものばかり食たべたくなる人ひとは多おおいだろう。Many people, when they hear that a food is healthy, probably want to eat nothing but that food.

私わたしの友人ゆうじんも、納豆なっとうが体からだにいいと聞きいて、一いっか月げつの間あいだ、毎食まいしょく納豆なっとうを食たべ続つづけた。A friend of mine heard that natto is good for you, and ate natto at every meal for a month.

しかし、体からだにいいからといって、同おなじ物ものばかり食たべるのはよくない。栄養えいようが偏かたよってしまうからだ。But just because something is healthy doesn't mean it's good to eat only that. Your nutrition becomes unbalanced.

実際じっさい、友人ゆうじんはそのあと体調たいちょうを崩くずし、医者いしゃに「もっといろいろな物ものを食たべてください」と言いわれたそうだ。In fact, my friend later felt unwell, and the doctor apparently told him to eat a wider variety of foods.

大切たいせつなのは、特別とくべつな食たべ物ものではなく、毎日まいにちの小ちいさな習慣しゅうかんである。What matters is not a special food, but small daily habits.

たとえば、甘あまい物ものやお酒さけを控ひかえる、適度てきどに体からだを動うごかす、十分じゅうぶんな睡眠すいみんをとる、などだ。For example, cutting back on sweets and alcohol, moving your body moderately, and getting enough sleep.

どれも当あたり前まえのことだが、当あたり前まえだからこそ、続つづけるのが難むずかしい。These are all obvious things, but precisely because they are obvious, they are hard to keep up.

そして、毎日まいにち続つづけるからこそ、体調たいちょうの維持いじに役立やくだつのだ。And it is precisely because you keep them up every day that they help you stay in good condition.

一日いちにちだけ早はやく寝ねたからといって、すぐに元気げんきになるわけではない。Going to bed early for just one night doesn't mean you'll feel better right away.

ちなみに、あの友人ゆうじんは今いま、納豆なっとうは朝あさご飯はんに一ひとパックだけと決きめている。By the way, that friend has now decided to eat just one pack of natto, only at breakfast.

「一日いちにち一ひとパックだからこそ、毎朝まいあさおいしいんだ」と、前まえよりずっと楽たのしそうだ。It's precisely because it's one pack a day that it tastes good every morning, he says, looking much happier than before.

Resposta e explicação

Resposta: 3 毎日まいにちの小ちいさな習慣しゅうかんを続つづけることが、体調たいちょうの維持いじに役立やくだつ

The writer says what matters is small daily habits, and that they help you stay healthy precisely because you keep them up. 1 contradicts the line saying it is not about special foods, the text says the opposite of 2, and it never says natto is bad.

Resposta e explicação

Resposta: 1 朝あさご飯はんに一ひとパックだけ食たべている

The text says the friend now eats just one pack of natto, only at breakfast. Eating it at every meal was what he did for one month in the past.

Quiz

1肉にくばかり食たべていると、栄養えいようが（　　）しまう。

Resposta e explicação

Resposta: 1 偏かたよって

If you eat only meat, your nutrition becomes unbalanced. 偏る means to become unbalanced. 控える, 維持する and 続ける take を, so they do not fit with 栄養が.

2夜よる遅おそくまでゲームをしていたので、（　　）が足たりない。

Resposta e explicação

Resposta: 3 睡眠すいみん

I played games until late at night, so I didn't get enough sleep. 睡眠が足りない is the natural phrase. The other words are not used with 足りない this way.

3運動うんどうはやりすぎず、（　　）にするのがいい。

Resposta e explicação

Resposta: 4 適度てきど

Don't overdo exercise; it's best to keep it moderate. Because of やりすぎず, the word for the right amount, 適度, fits. The others do not make sense here.

4値段ねだんが高たかい（　　）、品質ひんしつがいいとは限かぎらない。

Resposta e explicação

Resposta: 2 からといって

Just because something is expensive doesn't mean its quality is good. からといって is followed by a negative idea like とは限らない. からこそ stresses a reason and does not fit, and neither do からには or 上で.

5毎日まいにち練習れんしゅうした（　　）、試合しあいに勝かてたのだ。

Resposta e explicação

Resposta: 3 からこそ

It was precisely because I practiced every day that I was able to win. からこそ stresses the reason and often goes with のだ. からには needs resolve or duty after it, not a past fact. からといって is followed by a negative idea, and 上に adds information.

6A「この店みせ、いつも混こんでいますね。」
B「安やすくておいしい（　　）、人ひとが集あつまるんですよ。」

Resposta e explicação

Resposta: 1 からこそ

A: This restaurant is always crowded. B: It's precisely because it's cheap and tasty that people come. からこそ stresses the reason. からといって is followed by a negative idea, 以上は shows resolve or duty, and ばかりか adds information.

7最近さいきん、睡眠時間じかんが短みじかい。

Resposta e explicação

Resposta: 3 すいみん

睡眠 is read すいみん. 眠 is the character in 眠る, and its on-reading is みん. The sentence means: Recently my sleep time has been short.

8しばらくお酒さけをひかえることにした。

Resposta e explicação

Resposta: 4 控える

ひかえる is written 控える. 空, 抗 and 校 look similar but are not read ひかえる. The sentence means: I decided to cut back on alcohol for a while.
