“nakusu” vs. “nakunaru”：You Should Correctly Use These.

What is the difference between “亡なくす(nakusu) and 亡なくなる(nakunaru)”? Which is used as the meaning of “pass away”? 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!

亡なくす (nakusu)

Lose someone / 去世 / 잃다 / mất, chết(chủ ngữ là bản thân)

“亡なくす(nakusu)” means “Lose someone” and which has been used as the meaning of “people lose someone who dies”. The basic ways to use them are that “私わたしは___を亡なくす。(I lose ___.)”, etc For instance, “私わたしは友達ともだちを亡なくす。(I lose my friend.)”, “私わたしは妹いもうとを亡なくす。(I lose my sister.)”, “私わたしはお父とうさんを亡なくす。(I lose my father.)”, etc. The tips for using it are that when using “亡なくす”,” A SUBJECT IS PEOPLE WHO LOSE SOMEONE”, unlike “亡なくなる”. Everyone could use “亡なくす” as casual, polite and formal such as お父とうさんを亡なくしたよ。(I lost my dad.)” as casual and “父ちちを亡なくしました。(I lose my father.)” as polite and formal.
