チャットで
Significado: Let's discuss it on chat (Slack, Teams, etc.) — a common redirect phrase when email or in-person discussion isn't the best channel.
A simple but culturally significant phrase that reflects the shift in Japanese workplace communication from email to chat tools like Slack, Microsoft Teams, and Chatwork. Saying 'チャットで' is a quick way to move a conversation to a more efficient channel. It also signals a more casual, fast-paced communication style that younger workers prefer over formal email exchanges.
Ejemplos
- その件、チャットで詳しく送るね。 那件事我在聊天工具上详细发给你。Ese tema te lo mando con más detalle por el chat.그 건, 채팅으로 자세히 보낼게.
- 今メール書くの面倒だからチャットで話さない？ 现在懒得写邮件，在聊天工具上说吧？Ahora me da pereza escribir un correo, ¿lo hablamos por el chat?지금 이메일 쓰기 귀찮으니까 채팅으로 얘기하지 않을래?
- チャットで聞いた方が早いよ、メールだと返信遅いから。 在聊天工具上问更快，发邮件回复太慢了。Es más rápido preguntarlo por el chat, por correo tardan siglos en contestar.채팅으로 물어보는 게 더 빨라, 이메일은 답장이 느리니까.
