輸出 30秒了解
- Export: Sending goods/services abroad.
- Opposite: 輸入 (yunyū - import).
- Grammar: Noun or Suru-verb.
- Key Kanji: 輸 (transport) + 出 (exit).
The term 輸出 (ゆしゅつ - yushutsu) is a fundamental pillar of international trade and economic discourse in Japanese. At its core, it refers to the act of sending goods, services, or commodities produced within one's own country to a foreign market for the purpose of sale or exchange. In a linguistic sense, the word is composed of two kanji: 輸 (yu), meaning 'transport' or 'convey', and 出 (shutsu), meaning 'exit' or 'to go out'. Together, they literally describe the 'transporting out' of items. This word is not merely a technical term used by economists; it is a common noun and a suru-verb used in daily news, business meetings, and even casual conversations about a country's products.
- Economic Context
- Refers to the macro-economic activity of a nation selling its surplus or specialized products abroad.
- Grammatical Function
- Acts as a noun (輸出) or a verb (輸出する) depending on the particle used.
- Directionality
- Always implies a movement from 'inside' (domestic) to 'outside' (international).
日本は自動車を多く輸出しています。
(Japan exports many automobiles.)
Understanding 輸出 requires recognizing Japan's historical identity as an 'export-oriented' nation. For decades, the phrase 輸出大国 (yushutsu taikoku - export superpower) was synonymous with Japan's rapid economic growth. When you use this word, you are tapping into a narrative of quality, manufacturing (monozukuri), and global connectivity. It is the opposite of 輸入 (yunyū - import), and the balance between these two defines a country's trade surplus or deficit.
この会社はアニメを海外に輸出している。
(This company exports anime abroad.)
- Physical Goods
- Cars, electronics, food, and machinery.
- Intangible Goods
- Software, cultural content (anime/manga), and technical expertise.
米の輸出が制限された。
(The export of rice was restricted.)
Using 輸出 correctly involves understanding its role as a suru-verb and its relationship with particles. Most commonly, you will see it paired with the particle を to indicate the object being exported, and へ or に to indicate the destination.
- As a Noun: 輸出が伸びる (Exports are growing). Here, it functions as the subject.
- As a Verb: 自動車を輸出する (To export cars). Here, it functions as the action.
- In Compounds: 輸出産業 (Export industry), 輸出額 (Export value).
When discussing the growth or decline of exports, specific verbs are frequently used. For growth, use 伸びる (nobiru) or 増加する (zōka suru). For decline, use 減る (heru) or 減少する (genshō suru). If you are talking about the act of starting an export business, the phrase 輸出を手がける (yushutsu o tegakeru) is very professional.
円安は輸出企業にとって有利です。
(A weak yen is advantageous for export companies.)
In a business setting, you might discuss 輸出規制 (yushutsu kisei) which refers to export regulations or restrictions. This is a hot topic in international politics and trade wars. If a company is focusing solely on the domestic market, they might say they have 輸出の予定はない (no plans for export).
You will encounter 輸出 most frequently in the following environments:
- News and Media: Daily reports on the 貿易収支 (bōeki shūshi - trade balance) always feature this word. News anchors will discuss how much the 輸出額 (export amount) has changed compared to the previous year.
- Business Meetings: Particularly in manufacturing, logistics, or trading companies (shōsha). Discussions about shipping schedules, customs clearance (通関), and foreign markets will revolve around 輸出.
- Economics Textbooks: It is a core vocabulary word for anyone studying the Japanese economy, often paired with graphs showing Japan's reliance on global trade.
- Documentaries: Programs about Japanese culture or technology often highlight how these assets are 'exported' to the world, representing Japanese 'Soft Power'.
今夜のニュース：日本の輸出が過去最高を記録しました。
(Tonight's news: Japan's exports have hit a record high.)
The most frequent mistake learners make is confusing 輸出 (yushutsu) with 輸入 (yunyū). Because they sound somewhat similar and are often discussed together, it's easy to flip them. Remember: 出 (shutsu) is 'out' (Export), and 入 (nyū) is 'in' (Import).
Another mistake is using the wrong particle for the destination. While に and へ are generally interchangeable, using で (at/in) is incorrect when describing the destination of the export. It should be アメリカに輸出する, not アメリカで輸出する (unless you are performing the act of exporting while physically standing in America, which is rare).
While 輸出 is the standard term for international trade, there are related words depending on the context:
- 搬出 (hanshutsu): To carry out. Used for moving things out of a building or a specific area, not necessarily a country.
- 出荷 (shukka): Shipping/Outbound. Used when goods leave a factory or warehouse to be sent to customers (domestic or international).
- 貿易 (bōeki): Trade. This is the umbrella term that covers both 輸出 (export) and 輸入 (import).
- 外販 (gaihan): External sales. Often used in a corporate context when a department sells its services to companies outside the group.
If you are talking about 'exporting' culture or ideas metaphorically, 輸出 is still the best word, but you might also see 発信 (hasshin), which means 'to transmit' or 'to send out' information/culture.
