| a friend is one who sees through you and still enjoys the view. 友達とは、あなたを通して見、なおかつその視点を楽しむ人のことです。 Explanation: 友達とは、あなたを通して見、なおかつその視点を楽しむ人のことです。 I wanted to use the word, "なおかつ." It's appropriate for the nuance of this sentence and the context. This could be translated as, 友達とは、あなたを通して見、なおかつその視点を楽しめる人のことです。 This is more "nuance-oriented" translation. Yet exact English for this is "still can enjoy the view." But I thought it would be better to stick to simple translation. |
