“nayami” vs. “shinpai”:What You Should Know About These

What is the difference between “なやみ(nayami) and 心配しんぱい(shinpai)”? Which is used as the meaning of ”concern”? After reading this, you would be answering this question. Let me introduce what their subtle differences are and how you correctly use them such as native speakers today!

なやみ (nayami)

Problem, Trouble / 烦恼 / 고민 / rắc rối, lo lắng

なやみ(nayami)” means “Why” and which have been used as the meaning of “something that causes difficulty or that is hard to deal with”. The basic ways to use it are that “わたしなやみは___です。(My problem is ___.)”, etc. For instance, “わたしなやみは朝起あさおきれないことです。(My problem is that I can’t wake up in the morning.)”, “わたしなやみはおさけきなことです。(My problem is that I love to drink)”, etc. The tips for using it are that “なやみ” is used as the meaning of “SOMETHING THAT’S BEEN BOTHERING YOU”, unlike “心配しんぱい“. Everyone could use “なやみ” as casual, polite and formal such as “なやみは朝起あさおきれないことだよ。(My problem is that I can’t wake up in the morning.)” as casual and “なやみは朝起あさおきれないことです。(My problem is that I can’t wake up in the morning.)” as polite and formal.
