Craftman's efforts making glassware with 職人
Vocabulary Explanation: Skilled artisan with 職人
Akari picks up a box containing glassware items for her to transport. One of the employees from the shop making the glassware takes the box from her to place in her gondola. After he does this a second time, Akari says she can help carry the boxes, but he refuses.
- 職人:
- 「このガラス達は親方が精魂込めて作った」
- "These pieces of glass were made with the maestro's heart and soul poured into them."
- 「僕達職人の努力の結晶なんス」
- "They're the crystallization of our craftsmen's efforts."
結晶 can refer to crystallization, but also to the fruits (of one’s labor). He means the latter here, but the former works well in an English translation without losing the meaning.
