「proactive」は形容詞で、「さきのことを考えて、事前に行動を起こす」という意味になります。「proactive」は「積極的な」や「前向きな」という日本語の意味に近いと思います。たとえば、
We should take a proactive approach to foreign policy.
外交に対しては積極的な取り組みを採用したほうがいい。
My brother has a very proactive attitude toward work.
兄はとても前向きな態度と取る。
proactiveの意味と使い方
Hi Luke,
It seems that these words ‘ Activate ‘,
‘Activation ‘ and ‘ Activity ‘ are more often used than ‘ proactive ‘ in reality.
For example,
・For telegraphic transfer to Non-registered
third party,please perform instruction to
activate Non-registered account transfer
function.
‘ Activate ‘ is relative to ‘ function ‘ in
above sentence.
‘ Activation ‘ is its transformation form as
noun.
‘ Activity ‘ is also noun.Howevet,it means the situation is going on the process.
For example,what is ‘ Account Activities ‘?
It’s indicated the process afterward.
To understand these things is a very proactive attitude.
You’re right. Activity and activate are used more often proactive. Thank you for your comment!
