How to say "Simple" in Japanese

When translating "simple" into Japanese, you must choose carefully between 簡単な and 簡略. In Japanese, 簡単な (かんたんな (kantan na)) is typically associated with "simple, easy" (Syllabus Level: N4) and represents A `na`-adjective describing something that is not difficult, complicated, or elaborate. Often contrasts with 複雑な or 難しい.. On the other hand, 簡略 (かんりゃく (kanryaku)) maps to "simple; simplified; brief" (Syllabus Level: N2) and represents Describes something made simpler by omitting details or steps, often for efficiency or convenience. Similar to 簡潔 but more about simplification of a process, procedure, or form rather than style of expression. Often used as a な-adjective. A literal translation of "simple" can often sound unnatural to native Japanese speakers if mixed up!
