誇らしい در ۳۰ ثانیه
- Hokorashii is a positive Japanese i-adjective meaning 'proud.'
- It refers to the honorable satisfaction from achievements or virtues.
- It is commonly used for family, national, or personal milestones.
- It differs from 'jiman' (boasting) by focusing on dignity and merit.
The Japanese word 誇らしい (hokorashii) is a beautiful i-adjective that captures the essence of positive pride. Unlike some terms for pride that can carry a negative connotation of arrogance or boastfulness, hokorashii is almost exclusively positive. It describes a deep, internal feeling of satisfaction and honor resulting from an achievement, a virtuous act, or being associated with something or someone commendable. When you use this word, you are expressing that something makes you feel 'ten feet tall' or gives you a sense of dignity.
- The Emotional Core
- At its heart, hokorashii is about the glow of success. It is the feeling a parent has at their child's graduation, the feeling an athlete has when standing on a podium, or the feeling a worker has after completing a difficult project that benefits the community. It is an expansive emotion that seeks to honor the subject.
- Social Context and Modesty
- In Japanese culture, where modesty (kenkyo) is highly valued, hokorashii serves as a safe way to express pride. Because it often focuses on the quality of the act or the person being observed rather than just the 'ego' of the speaker, it avoids the pitfalls of jiman (boasting). It is more about 'being proud of' than 'bragging about.'
優勝した息子を見て、とても誇らしい気持ちになった。
(Seeing my son win the championship, I felt very proud.)
You will encounter this word in various settings, from intimate family conversations to formal award ceremonies. It is often paired with nouns like kimochi (feeling) or sugata (appearance/figure) to describe the aura of someone who has achieved something great. For instance, a hokorashii sugata describes someone standing tall with dignity. It is also common in literature and news reports to describe national achievements or heroic deeds that bring honor to a group.
日本代表チームの活躍は、私たちにとって非常に誇らしいことです。
(The performance of the Japanese national team is something we are extremely proud of.)
- Internal vs. External Pride
- While hokoru is a verb (to take pride in), hokorashii is the adjective describing the state. It is often used when the speaker is an observer of someone else's success, making it a very selfless form of pride. However, it can also be used for one's own achievements when reflecting on the hard work involved, though usually with a degree of humility.
In summary, hokorashii is the go-to word for 'honorable pride.' It builds bridges between people by acknowledging excellence and virtue. Whether it's a small personal victory or a grand collective achievement, this word provides the phonetic and emotional weight to honor that success appropriately.
Using 誇らしい (hokorashii) correctly involves understanding its role as an i-adjective. This means it can modify nouns directly or function as the predicate of a sentence. It follows standard i-adjective conjugations, which is essential for expressing pride in the past, negative, or as an adverb.
- Direct Noun Modification
- To describe a 'proud moment' or a 'proud face,' you simply place hokorashii before the noun. For example: hokorashii kao (a proud face) or hokorashii shunkan (a proud moment). This is the most straightforward usage.
- Predicative Usage
- When ending a sentence, you use hokorashii desu (polite) or hokorashii (casual). Example: Kare wa hokorashii (He is proud). Often, the target of the pride is marked with the particle ni or ga, depending on the structure.
彼女の成功を誇らしいと思う。
(I think her success is something to be proud of.)
One of the most common ways to use hokorashii is in combination with omou (to think/feel). Saying hokorashii to omou is slightly more indirect and often sounds more natural in Japanese conversation than a blunt hokorashii desu. It suggests that the pride is a feeling rising within you.
When using the adverbial form hokorashiku, you can describe how someone acts. For instance, hokorashiku mune o haru (to puff out one's chest proudly). This paints a vivid picture of the physical manifestation of pride.
彼は誇らしげにメダルを見せた。
(He showed his medal proudly / with a proud look.)
Note the use of hokorashige ni in the example above. The suffix -ge adds the nuance of 'looking like' or 'seeming to be.' Hokorashige is a very common variation used to describe someone's outward appearance of pride.
- The 'Ni' Particle Connection
- When you want to specify who you are proud of, you often use the structure [Person] o [Property] ni hokorashii to omou. For example, Musuko o hokorashii ni omou (I feel proud of my son). However, it's more common to use the verb hokoru (誇る) or the phrase hokori ni omou (誇りに思う) for this specific 'proud of someone' meaning. Hokorashii is more about the quality of the situation itself.
In professional contexts, you might hear hokorashii kagiri desu, which is an emphatic way of saying 'I couldn't be more proud.' This level of formality is appropriate for speeches, official announcements, or when representing a company's achievements.
The word 誇らしい (hokorashii) resonates through various layers of Japanese life, from the emotional peaks of personal milestones to the collective pride of national identity. Understanding these contexts will help you recognize its weight and significance when you hear it.
- Family and Milestones
- You will most frequently hear hokorashii in the context of family achievements. At graduation ceremonies (sotugyoushiki), parents often tell their children, or tell others about their children, how hokorashii they feel. It's a word that bridges the gap between generations, expressing that the younger generation's hard work has brought honor to the family name.
- Sports and Media
- In sports broadcasting, commentators use hokorashii to describe athletes who have fought bravely, regardless of whether they won or lost. If a team gives their all against a superior opponent, the commentator might say, 'Hokorashii tatakai deshita' (It was a fight to be proud of). This highlights the Japanese emphasis on effort and spirit (seishin) over raw results.
最後まで諦めずに走り抜いた姿は、本当に誇らしい。
(The sight of them running to the end without giving up is truly something to be proud of.)
In the corporate world, hokorashii is used during company anniversaries or when a major project is successfully launched. A CEO might address the employees, stating that their collective effort is hokorashii. This fosters a sense of belonging and shared purpose (kizuna). It transforms individual labor into a source of communal dignity.
この伝統ある企業の一員であることを誇らしいと思います。
(I feel proud to be a member of this long-standing company.)
- Literature and Song Lyrics
- Japanese lyrics often use hokorashii to describe the feeling of walking into the future or standing by one's convictions. It’s a word that evokes a sense of 'shining' (kagayaku). In literature, it might describe a character's internal transformation from shame to dignity.
Finally, you will hear it in news reports concerning international contributions. When Japanese doctors or engineers assist in disaster relief abroad, the media often frames these actions as hokorashii for the nation. This usage reinforces a positive national self-image based on contribution and excellence.
While 誇らしい (hokorashii) is a positive word, learners often trip up on its nuance, its grammatical constraints, and its social appropriateness. Avoiding these common pitfalls will make your Japanese sound more natural and culturally attuned.
- Confusing 'Hokorashii' with 'Jiman'
- The biggest mistake is confusing hokorashii with jiman (自慢). While both relate to pride, jiman often implies boasting or showing off. If you say 'Jiman no musuko desu,' it sounds like you are bragging. If you say 'Musuko ga hokorashii desu,' it sounds like you are deeply moved by your son's character or achievements. Use hokorashii for heartfelt pride and jiman for 'bragging rights.'
- Incorrect Particle Usage
- Learners often try to say 'I am proud of X' by using X o hokorashii. While understandable, the more natural way to express being proud of a person is X o hokori ni omou (誇りに思う). Hokorashii is more of an adjective describing the *state* or the *feeling* itself. For example, 'Kare no koui wa hokorashii' (His act is proud/honorable).
❌ 私は自分を誇らしいです。
(Incorrect: I am proud of myself - sounds slightly unnatural.)✅ 自分の成し遂げたことを誇らしく思う。
(Correct: I feel proud of what I have achieved.)
Another mistake is using the wrong conjugation. Remember that it is an i-adjective. Learners sometimes treat it like a na-adjective (e.g., saying hokorashii na instead of hokorashii). Also, the past tense must be hokorashikatta, not hokorashii deshita (though the latter is sometimes heard in very casual, slightly 'broken' speech, it's grammatically incorrect).
- Overusing the Word
- While it's a great word, overusing hokorashii for trivial things (like eating a whole pizza) can diminish its weight. It is reserved for things that have a sense of 'honor' or 'dignity.' For small achievements, words like ureshii (happy) or yatta (I did it) are more appropriate.
Finally, be careful with the suffix -ge. While hokorashige (looking proud) is common, it is usually used to describe *someone else's* appearance. Using hokorashige to describe yourself can sound like you are observing yourself from the outside, which is rare in natural speech.
To truly master 誇らしい (hokorashii), you must see how it sits alongside its synonyms and near-synonyms. Each word has a different 'flavor' of pride or satisfaction.
- Hokorashii (誇らしい) vs. Hokori (誇り)
- Hokorashii is the adjective (proud), while hokori is the noun (pride). You use hokori in the phrase hokori ni omou (to take pride in). Hokorashii is more about the feeling or the atmosphere of pride, whereas hokori is the 'thing' you possess.
- Hokorashii vs. Jiman (自慢)
- As mentioned, jiman is 'boasting.' If you have a 'jiman no tokei' (a watch you're proud of/bragging about), it's a physical possession. Hokorashii is rarely used for objects unless they represent a significant achievement (like a trophy or a restored monument).
Comparison:
1. 誇らしい気持ち (A proud feeling - internal/noble)
2. 自慢したい話 (A story I want to brag about - external/ego)
- Ureshii (嬉しい) vs. Hokorashii
- Ureshii simply means 'happy.' You are ureshii if you get a gift. You are hokorashii if you worked hard to earn the money for that gift. Hokorashii requires a foundation of merit or honor.
- Mabushii (眩しい)
- Literally 'dazzling' or 'radiant.' In a figurative sense, someone who is hokorashii might be described as mabushii because their success and dignity shine brightly. This is a common literary trope.
Understanding these distinctions allows you to choose the word that fits the level of 'weight' you want to convey. If the pride is deep and tied to character, hokorashii is your best choice. If it's just a lighthearted brag, stick to jiman. If it's pure joy, use ureshii.

نکات
Adverbial Use
Remember to use 'hokorashiku' when modifying a verb. For example, 'hokorashiku utau' means to sing proudly.
Modesty Matters
When talking about your own family to outsiders, Japanese people sometimes use more humble words, but 'hokorashii' is generally acceptable because it focuses on the honor of the act.
Pair with 'Kimochi'
If you aren't sure how to end a sentence, 'hokorashii kimochi desu' (I have a proud feeling) is always a safe and natural choice.
Long Vowel
Don't forget the long 'ii' at the end. 'Hokorashi' sounds incomplete and incorrect.
Hokorashii vs. Jiman
Use 'hokorashii' for things that make your heart swell with honor. Use 'jiman' for things you want to show off.
Kanji Practice
The 'speech' radical (言) on the left of 誇 is key. Pride in many cultures is something spoken about, which helps in remembering the kanji.
Encouragement
Telling someone 'Anata wa hokorashii' is a very high compliment in Japan. It's more than just 'good job'; it's 'you have honor.'
-Ge Suffix
Use 'hokorashige ni' to describe the 'vibe' someone is giving off. It's very common in novels.
Hokori ni Omou
While 'hokorashii' is an adjective, 'hokori ni omou' is the most common verb phrase for 'to be proud of someone.'
Chest Out
Associate the word with the physical action of standing tall. This helps cement the meaning of dignity and pride.

شبکه واژگان
چالش

ریشه کلمه
The word stems from the classical Japanese verb 'hokoru' (誇る). In ancient times, it meant to swell up or to bloom brilliantly. This physical 'swelling' or 'shining' was metaphorically applied to the feeling of pride.
معنای اصلی: To shine brilliantly or to be in full bloom; to show off one's beauty or power.
Japonic / Old Japanese.بافت فرهنگی
Be careful not to use 'hokorashii' for someone of much higher status (like the Emperor or a very high-level CEO) unless you are describing their actions in a very specific, respectful way. It can sound slightly evaluative.
In English, 'proud' can be used for small things ('proud of my sandwich'). In Japanese, 'hokorashii' is usually more weighty and serious.

10 سوالYes, but it might sound a bit 'heavy.' For small things like finishing a book, 'ureshii' (happy) or 'yatta!' (I did it!) are more common. Use 'hokorashii' for things that required significant effort or represent your values.
Mostly, yes. If you say 'Anata o hokorashiku omou,' it means 'I am proud of you.' However, in Japanese, it's often more natural to say 'Anata wa watashi no hokori da' (You are my pride).
Hokorashii is an adjective (proud). Hokori is a noun (pride). You use the noun in phrases like 'hokori o motsu' (to have pride).
Not necessarily, but it can be used to describe someone who looks a bit too proud. It usually just means 'looking proud' or 'with an air of pride.'
Since it's an i-adjective, you drop the final 'i' and add 'katta' to get 'hokorashikatta' (was proud).
Yes, if the object represents an achievement. For example, 'hokorashii torofii' (a proud trophy) or 'hokorashii kouseki' (a proud achievement).
Yes, especially when praising a team's success. Use the polite form 'hokorashiku omoimasu' or 'hokorashii kagiri desu.'
Yes, it is written as 誇らしい. The kanji 誇 means 'pride' or 'boast.'
The most common emotional opposite is 'hazukashii' (ashamed/embarrassed). For something that lacks dignity, 'nasakenai' (pathetic) is also used.
Yes, you can say 'hokorashii machi' to mean a town that citizens are proud of because of its history or beauty.

Summary
The word 誇らしい (hokorashii) is the best way to express 'noble pride' in Japanese. Use it to describe the feeling of honor you get from a hard-earned success, like saying 'I felt proud of my son's graduation' (息子の卒業を誇らしく思った).
- Hokorashii is a positive Japanese i-adjective meaning 'proud.'
- It refers to the honorable satisfaction from achievements or virtues.
- It is commonly used for family, national, or personal milestones.
- It differs from 'jiman' (boasting) by focusing on dignity and merit.
Adverbial Use
Remember to use 'hokorashiku' when modifying a verb. For example, 'hokorashiku utau' means to sing proudly.
Modesty Matters
When talking about your own family to outsiders, Japanese people sometimes use more humble words, but 'hokorashii' is generally acceptable because it focuses on the honor of the act.
Pair with 'Kimochi'
If you aren't sure how to end a sentence, 'hokorashii kimochi desu' (I have a proud feeling) is always a safe and natural choice.
Long Vowel
Don't forget the long 'ii' at the end. 'Hokorashi' sounds incomplete and incorrect.
