How to say "Be" in Japanese

When translating "be" into Japanese, you must choose carefully between 退院する and 片付く. In Japanese, 退院する (たいいんする (taiin suru)) is typically associated with "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！』. On the other hand, 片付く (かたづく (katazuku)) maps to "to be put in order, to be tidied up, to be finished/settled" (Syllabus Level: N3) and represents 散らかったものが整理されてきれいな状態になることを表す自動詞です。仕事や問題が解決する意味でも使われます。. A literal translation of "be" can often sound unnatural to native Japanese speakers if mixed up!
