使い分け解説:
- 感想: 何かを見たり聞いたり体験したりした後に抱く、心に感じたことや考えのことです。よく「感想を言う」「感想を聞く」のように使われます。(It refers to what one feels or thinks after seeing, hearing, or experiencing something. Often used with 'kansō o iu' (to give impressions) or 'kansō o kiku' (to ask for impressions).)
- 漠然: Similar to 曖昧 but often implies a larger, less defined sense of vagueness, especially concerning abstract ideas, future plans, or feelings, rather than specific details or expressions.
