厚さ 30秒了解
- Thickness (厚さ - atsusa) refers to how wide or deep something is.
- It's a measurement of an object from one side to the other.
- Used for describing books, walls, paper, and many other physical items.
- Often compared with the adjective 'atsui' (thick).
- Meaning
- 厚さ (atsusa) means 'thickness'. It's used to describe how wide or deep something is, like the thickness of a book, a wall, or a piece of fabric.
- Usage
- You'll hear this word when people are talking about physical objects and their dimensions. For example, when buying materials, discussing construction, or comparing the size of items.

- Physical Properties
- When discussing materials like wood, metal, or plastic, their thickness is a key characteristic. For instance, a carpenter might specify the required thickness of a wooden plank for a project.
- Everyday Objects
- In daily life, you might talk about the thickness of your phone's case, the thickness of a blanket for warmth, or the thickness of a slice of bread.
- Comparison
- 'Atsusa' is often used when comparing the thickness of two or more items. 'This one is thicker than that one.' (こっちの方が厚さがある。) or 'The thickness is different.'
- Basic Sentence Structure
- The most common way to use 厚さ (atsusa) is to state the thickness of something. You can use particles like が (ga) to mark the subject or を (o) to mark the object being measured.
- Describing Thickness
- You can describe something as having a certain thickness. For example, 「この紙は厚さが薄い。」 (Kono kami wa atsusa ga usui.) - 'This paper has little thickness.' (This paper is thin.)
- Asking About Thickness
- To ask about thickness, you can use 「~の厚さは?」 (~ no atsusa wa?) - 'What is the thickness of~?' For example, 「この壁の厚さはどのくらいですか?」 (Kono kabe no atsusa wa dono kurai desu ka?) - 'About how thick is this wall?'
- Comparing Thickness
- When comparing, you might say 「AはBより厚さがある。」 (A wa B yori atsusa ga aru.) - 'A has more thickness than B.' or simply use adjectives like 厚い (atsui - thick) and 薄い (usui - thin).
- Units of Measurement
- When specifying thickness, you will often hear units of measurement like ミリメートル (mirimeetoru - millimeters) or センチメートル (senchimeetoru - centimeters). For example, 「この板は5ミリメートルの厚さです。」 (Kono ita wa go mirimeetoru no atsusa desu.) - 'This board has a thickness of 5 millimeters.'

- Construction and DIY
- In construction sites or when discussing home improvement, you'll often hear people talking about the thickness of materials like walls, insulation, or wood. For example, a builder might say, 「この断熱材の厚さは重要です。」 (Kono dannetsuzai no atsusa wa juuyou desu.) - 'The thickness of this insulation material is important.' This is because thickness directly impacts heat retention.
- Manufacturing and Product Design
- When products are being designed or manufactured, thickness is a critical specification. For example, in electronics, the thickness of a smartphone or a battery is a key design element. You might hear, 「新しいモデルは厚さを減らすことに成功しました。」 (Atarashii moderu wa atsusa o herasu koto ni seikou shimashita.) - 'The new model succeeded in reducing thickness.'
- Shopping and Retail
- When you're shopping for items where thickness matters, like books, paper, clothing, or carpets, you might ask about or discuss its thickness. A bookseller might tell you, 「この画集は厚さがありますが、内容は素晴らしいですよ。」 (Kono gashuu wa atsusa ga arimasu ga, naiyou wa subarashii desu yo.) - 'This art book has thickness, but the content is wonderful.'
- Science and Engineering
- In scientific contexts, thickness is a precise measurement. For instance, when discussing the thickness of a material's layer in a lab experiment or the thickness of ice on a lake, accuracy is key. A scientist might report, 「試料の厚さは10マイクロメートルでした。」 (Shiyou no atsusa wa juumairokumeetoru deshita.) - 'The thickness of the sample was 10 micrometers.'
- Everyday Conversations
- Even in casual conversations, you might use it. For example, when talking about cooking, 「このパンケーキの厚さ、ちょうどいいですね!」 (Kono pankeki no atsusa, choudo ii desu ne!) - 'The thickness of this pancake is just right!'

- Confusing with Adjective
- Learners sometimes confuse the noun 厚さ (atsusa) with the adjective 厚い (atsui), which means 'thick'. While related, they function differently in sentences. You use 厚さ when you are referring to the 'thickness' as a concept or measurement, whereas 厚い describes something that *is* thick.
- Incorrect Particle Usage
- A common mistake is using the wrong particle with 厚さ. For example, saying 「厚さを薄い」 (atsusa o usui) might sound a bit unnatural. It's more common to say 「厚さが薄い」 (atsusa ga usui) when describing something as having little thickness (i.e., being thin).
- Overuse of the Noun
- Sometimes, learners might try to force the noun 厚さ into sentences where the adjective 厚い would be more natural. For instance, instead of 「この本は厚い」 (Kono hon wa atsui - This book is thick), they might incorrectly say 「この本の厚さは厚い」 (Kono hon no atsusa wa atsui), which is redundant.
- Pronunciation Errors
- As mentioned in pronunciation, mispronouncing the 'tsu' sound can lead to confusion. Also, not stressing the first syllable can make it sound less natural to native speakers.
- Ignoring Context
- Using 厚さ in contexts where a more specific word for dimension or size is needed can be a mistake. For example, for the thickness of a liquid, you might use 濃度 (noudo - concentration) or 粘度 (nendo - viscosity) depending on the context, rather than a direct translation of 'thickness'.
- 厚い (atsui) - Thick (Adjective)
- This is the adjective form. Use it to directly describe something as thick. Example: 「この本は厚い。」 (Kono hon wa atsui.) - 'This book is thick.' 厚さ is the noun form, referring to the property of thickness itself.
- 幅 (haba) - Width
- This refers to the dimension across something, the width. It's a different dimension than thickness. Example: 「この布の幅は1メートルです。」 (Kono nuno no haba wa ichi meetoru desu.) - 'The width of this cloth is 1 meter.'
- 長さ (nagasa) - Length
- This refers to the longest dimension of an object. It's distinct from thickness. Example: 「このロープの長さは10メートルです。」 (Kono roopu no nagasa wa juu meetoru desu.) - 'The length of this rope is 10 meters.'
- 深さ (fukasa) - Depth
- This often refers to the distance from the top or front to the bottom or back, especially for containers or bodies of water. While similar to thickness in some contexts, it's usually used for hollow spaces or liquids. Example: 「この池の深さは2メートルです。」 (Kono ike no fukasa wa ni meetoru desu.) - 'The depth of this pond is 2 meters.'
- 厚み (atsumi) - Thickness (Slightly more nuanced)
- 厚み (atsumi) is very similar to 厚さ (atsusa) and often interchangeable. However, 厚み can sometimes carry a slightly more subjective or qualitative feel, referring to the 'body' or 'substance' of something, while 厚さ is more strictly a measurement. In many practical situations, they are used synonymously. Example: 「この紙にはしっかりとした厚みがある。」 (Kono kami ni wa shikkari to shita atsumi ga aru.) - 'This paper has a solid thickness/body.'
趣味小知识
The kanji 厚 (atsu) is composed of parts that can be interpreted as 'ear' (耳) and 'chisel' (斤) or 'grain' (禾). The older forms often depicted layers of food or grain, emphasizing the idea of something being substantial and thick.
发音指南
- Pronouncing 'tsu' as a separate 't' and 'su' sound.
- Adding an unnecessary vowel sound after 'sa'.
