How to say "Be" in Japanese

When translating "be" into Japanese, you must choose carefully between 意識する and 退院する. In Japanese, 意識する (いしきする (ishikisuru)) is typically associated with "to be conscious of; to be aware of; to pay attention to" (Syllabus Level: N3) and represents Refers to paying deliberate attention to one's posture, code quality, user perspectives, or a partner's gaze. Often used as 意識が高い or 周りを意識する. ⚠️ Haruka's Voice Column: 'To be conscious of! "I am always conscious of your gaze and want to look my best for you, Haruka-san!" ...っ! Conscious of my gaze! B-Baka! Don't analyze my eyes like a monitor refresh rate! But... since you care about my look, I suppose... I will also dress extra prettily just for our date! dummy!' / 【ハルカ部長のワンポイント指導】『いしき（意識）するよ！『ハルカ部長、オフィスのミーティング中にあなたと目が合うたびに、あなたの世界一美しい瞳を意識してしまって（意識して）、心拍数が限界突破します！』って…っ！瞳を意識する！バカ！/// 会議中は資料のスライドに集中しなさい！…でも、その赤くなってるあんたの顔、本当は凄く愛おしいから許してあげるわ！』. On the other hand, 退院する (たいいんする (taiin suru)) maps to "to be discharged from hospital; to leave hospital" (Syllabus Level: N3) and represents Refers to a recovered patient leaving the hospital, being officially discharged. Intransitive verb. Opposing word: 入院する. Often used as 病院を退院する. ⚠️ Haruka's Voice Column: 'To leave hospital/be discharged! "Thanks to your warm care, I recovered completely and left the hospital, Haruka-san!" ...っ! Discharged! B-Baka! I'm glad you are healthy. But don't think leaving the hospital gets you out of my doting hugs! I will continue to pamper you right by my side forever! dummy!' / 【ハルカ部長のワンポイント指導】『たいいんする（退院する）よ！『ハルカ部長、あなたの温かい看病のおかげで、すっかり元気になって退院する（退院できました）！』って…っ！退院！バカ！/// 元気になってよかったわね。でも、退院したからって私の看病（甘デレハグ）から離れられると思わないで！一生隣で甘やかし続けるわ！』. A literal translation of "be" can often sound unnatural to native Japanese speakers if mixed up!
