Translation guide
The English word 'appending' refers to adding something to the end of something else, often in writing, data, or lists. In Japanese, this concept is expressed through various verbs and structures depending on what is being appended and the context.
append a note
To express the action of attaching or adding something at the end of a written work, file, or string of data.
To express adding an item to the end of a list, queue, or series.
To express adding one's signature or seal at the end of a document.
追加する is more formal and often used for systematic additions (data, lists). 付け加える is more casual and implies adding something extra, often verbally or in writing.
append a comment
Avoid directly translating 'append' as アペンドする, which is used only in specific technical contexts (e.g., programming). In general Japanese, use 追加する or 付け加える.
To add or append something, often with a nuance of supplementing or attaching. Slightly more casual than 追加する.
