Erklärung 伝達 in your Level:

At the A1 level, '伝達' (dentatsu) is a very difficult word that you likely won't need to use yourself. However, you can think of it as a super-formal version of 'to tell' (tsutaeru). Imagine a robot sending a message—that is 'dentatsu.' You might see it in very simple signs at a train station or airport, often combined with 'jouhou' (information). At this stage, focus on the first kanji '伝' which means 'to carry' or 'to tell.' If you see '伝達,' just remember it means 'information is moving from one place to another.' Do not worry about using it in your own sentences yet; 'tsutaeru' is much better for beginners.

For A2 learners, you might start seeing '伝達' (dentatsu) in formal reading materials or simple news clips. It is a noun that describes the act of giving information. While you would say 'I told my friend' with 'tsutaeru,' you might see a textbook say 'The teacher conveyed the homework' using 'dentatsu.' It is often used with 'suru' to make it a verb. A key point for A2 is recognizing that 'dentatsu' is for 'important' or 'official' things. If a boss gives a command, that is 'dentatsu.' If you are playing a game and a message pops up, that is also a 'dentatsu' of information.

At the B1 level, you should begin to distinguish '伝達' (dentatsu) from 'renraku' (contact). 'Renraku' is the 'phone call' or the 'email' itself, while 'dentatsu' is the 'delivery of the content.' In business Japanese, you will hear about 'dentatsu misu' (communication errors). This is when someone was told something, but they didn't understand it correctly or the message didn't arrive. You should be able to use 'dentatsu' in a formal essay or a business report. For example, 'I will ensure the information is conveyed (dentatsu) to all members.' It sounds much more professional than 'tsutaeru' in a corporate setting.

At the B2 level, '伝達' (dentatsu) is a core vocabulary word. You are expected to use it in technical, academic, and professional contexts. You should understand its use in biology (neurotransmission) and physics (heat transfer). You should also be comfortable with compound nouns like 'ishi dentatsu' (communication of intent) and 'dentatsu sokudo' (transmission speed). At this level, you understand that 'dentatsu' implies a systematic process. If a computer network is slow, you talk about 'dentatsu' issues. If a government's instructions aren't reaching the people, you use 'dentatsu.' You should also be able to recognize the passive form 'dentatsu sareru' (to be conveyed) frequently in formal writing.

C1 learners must master the nuanced collocations of '伝達' (dentatsu). This includes understanding 'dentatsu kansuu' (transfer functions) in mathematics and engineering, or 'bunka dentatsu' (cultural transmission) in sociology. You should be able to discuss the efficiency of 'dentatsu' channels in organizational psychology. At this level, you don't just 'convey information'; you analyze the 'accuracy, speed, and reliability of the transmission.' You will encounter this word in complex legal documents or philosophical texts discussing how meaning is transferred between generations. You should also be aware of the subtle differences between 'dentatsu' and 'denpan' (propagation) or 'kyouyuu' (sharing).

For C2 proficiency, '伝達' (dentatsu) is used with absolute precision in highly specialized fields. You might use it when discussing 'shinkei dentatsu busshitsu' (neurotransmitters) in a medical thesis or 'jouhou dentatsu riron' (information transmission theory) in a computer science paper. You understand its role in the semiotic process—how a signifier is 'dentatsu'-ed to create a signified. You are also sensitive to its rhetorical use; a politician might use the word 'dentatsu' to sound objective and detached from the message they are delivering. You can use it metaphorically or in highly technical abstracts without hesitation, ensuring the register matches the sophisticated environment of high-level Japanese discourse.

伝達 in 30 Sekunden

Formal term for 'transmission' or 'conveying' information.
Commonly used in business, science, and technical fields.
Implies a systematic process of a message reaching a destination.
Can be used for physical properties like heat or biological signals.

The Japanese word 伝達 (dentatsu) is a sophisticated noun and suru-verb that translates primarily to 'transmission,' 'communication,' or 'conveyance.' While English speakers might use 'tell' or 'send' in casual conversation, dentatsu occupies a more formal and technical space. It describes the systematic process of moving information, signals, or physical properties from a source to a recipient. In a business context, it refers to the official flow of instructions; in science, it refers to the relaying of neural impulses; and in technology, it refers to the transfer of data packets.

Formal Communication: Used when a superior conveys an order to a subordinate or when an organization releases an official statement to the public. It implies a structured path of delivery.
Biological Signaling: Specifically used for 'neurotransmission' (神経伝達 - shinkei dentatsu), where chemical or electrical signals move between neurons.
Technical Transfer: Relates to the physical transmission of heat (熱伝達 - netsu dentatsu) or electrical energy across a medium.

情報の正確な伝達が、プロジェクトの成功には不可欠です。(The accurate transmission of information is essential for the success of the project.)

In daily life, you might hear this word in news reports regarding government directives or in medical settings. It is rarely used when chatting with friends about what you had for lunch; for that, the verb tsutaeru is much more appropriate. However, if you are discussing the 'speed of communication' (伝達速度 - dentatsu sokudo) in a video game or a network, dentatsu is the precise term required. The kanji composition is also telling: 伝 (convey/transmit) and 達 (reach/attain), suggesting that the information must not only be sent but must successfully reach its destination.

Using 伝達 (dentatsu) correctly requires understanding its role as a 'suru' verb (伝達する) and its frequent appearance in compound nouns. It often takes the particle を (wo) when used as a verb to indicate the object being conveyed. Unlike the more personal 'hanasu' (to talk), dentatsu is objective and process-oriented.

命令は速やかに部下へ伝達された。(The orders were promptly conveyed to the subordinates.)

The Path of Transmission: Use the particle へ (he) or に (ni) to show the recipient. Example: 'AからBへ情報を伝達する' (Transmit information from A to B).
The Means of Transmission: Use で (de) or によって (ni yotte) to specify the medium. Example: '無線で伝達する' (Transmit via radio).

When you want to emphasize the efficiency or the failure of communication, you pair dentatsu with modifiers like 'umaku' (well), 'seikaku ni' (accurately), or 'misu' (error). A common business phrase is 'isou dentatsu' (意思伝達), which refers to the communication of intent or will. If you say '意思伝達がうまくいかない' (ishi dentatsu ga umaku ikanai), you are saying there is a breakdown in understanding between parties.

You will encounter 伝達 (dentatsu) in specific high-stakes or professional environments. It is a staple of NHK news broadcasts, particularly during emergency alerts or government announcements. When the Prime Minister's office sends a directive to local municipalities, the media describes this as 'shiji no dentatsu' (transmission of instructions). It sounds authoritative and final.

避難勧告の伝達が遅れたことが被害を拡大させた。(The delay in conveying the evacuation advisory expanded the damage.)

In the academic world, particularly in biology and psychology, dentatsu is used to describe how the brain functions. Students of medicine will constantly see 'shinkei dentatsu busshitsu' (neurotransmitters) such as dopamine or serotonin. In this context, the word loses its 'verbal' nuance and becomes a purely 'physical' description of movement across a synaptic cleft.

Finally, in the realm of sports, a coach might talk about 'ishi no dentatsu' (conveying intent) among players on the field. If a team is not synchronized, the commentator might remark that the 'dentatsu' between the midfield and the forwards is poor, meaning they aren't reading each other's signals effectively.

The most frequent error for English speakers is using 伝達 (dentatsu) where a simpler word like tsutaeru (to tell) or oshieru (to teach/inform) is needed. Dentatsu is formal; using it in a casual setting like 'I transmitted the message to my mom' sounds like you are a robot or a secret agent.

Mistake: Casual Usage: Incorrect: 友達に遊びに行く時間を伝達した。(I transmitted the time to go play to my friend.)
Correct: 友達に遊びに行く時間を伝えた。
Mistake: Confusion with 'Renraku': 'Renraku' (contact) is the act of getting in touch. 'Dentatsu' (transmission) is the flow of the information itself. You 'renraku' a person to 'dentatsu' a message.

❌ 彼は私に秘密を伝達した。
✅ 彼は私に秘密を打ち明けた (He confided a secret to me).

Another mistake is forgetting that dentatsu usually implies a one-way flow or a formal relay. It does not imply a 'conversation' or 'dialogue' (taiwa). If you are discussing something back and forth, use 'giron' (discussion) or 'hanashiai' (consultation). Dentatsu is about the delivery of a package of information from point A to point B.

Understanding the nuances between 伝達 (dentatsu) and its synonyms will elevate your Japanese to the B2/C1 level. The closest relative is tsutaeru, but there are several others with specific nuances.

伝達 vs. 伝言 (Dengon): 'Dengon' is a 'verbal message' left for someone. 'Dentatsu' is the broader 'act of transmitting' that message. You leave a 'dengon' via a 'dentatsu' process.
伝達 vs. 普及 (Fukyuu): 'Fukyuu' means 'diffusion' or 'spread' (like a new technology or a virus). 'Dentatsu' is the specific relay of information.
伝達 vs. 伝搬 (Denpan): 'Denpan' is used for physical waves (sound, light, radio). While information is 'dentatsu'-ed, the radio waves that carry it are 'denpan'-ed.

情報の伝達 (Transmission of info) vs. 噂の流布 (Spreading of rumors).

When choosing between these, ask yourself: Is this an official delivery of facts? (Dentatsu). Is this just telling a friend? (Tsutaeru). Is this a message left on a desk? (Dengon). Is this a scientific wave? (Denpan). Selecting the right word shows you understand the 'texture' of the communication you are describing.

How Formal Is It?

Wusstest du?

The kanji '伝' originally depicted a person and a spool of thread, symbolizing the continuous relay of information. '達' depicts feet moving through a gate, symbolizing reaching a goal.

Aussprachehilfe

UK den.tat.su

US den.tat.su

Japanese has pitch accent. In 'dentatsu', the accent is typically flat (Heiban), meaning the pitch stays relatively consistent after the first syllable.
