日本人は一体独創性と言うのがないです! 韓国を責める境遇ではないのに?
日本の文化は pakuri そのものです!
TOYOTA
THE copycat car company has finally produced an original masterpiece.
After more than a decade of building Japanese copies of European prestige cars,
like the Benz S Class-(レックソス)LS limousine and BMW 3-Series-(レックソス)IS sports sedan,
http://www.carsguide.news.com.au/story/0,20384,4803974-26236,00.html
When Toyota launched its Lexus luxury car brand a decade ago it made no secret that it had Mercedes in it sights.
トヨタが Lexusをランチングした時ベンツを引き写したことは秘密でもなかった.
Ten years later, the Japanese are sending in the clones with increasing frequency.
It¥“s not just the expensive models which European makers accuse Japan of copying. Consider, for example, the headlights on the latest Toyota Tarago. Now picture those of the Peugeot 206. Look familiar? Looks as if they should share the same part number.
トヨタ Tarago, プジョー 206 どう? 似ている?
まるでみたいな part numberを共有するように.
When Audi¥“s TT coupe and convertible were unveiled, diminutive Japanese maker Daihatsu had a car with an amazing likeness displayed at the very next Tokyo Motor Show called the Kopen. The latest Lexus coupe, due here before the end of the year, looks like a larger interpretation of Audi¥“s Bauhaus design.
アウディが TTを公開した後日本の多異ハツが 翌年驚くべきになるように似ている Kopenを
東京モーターショーで公開した.
Daihatsu has also built a miniature Hummer and, bizzarely, called it the Naked. And in 1999 at the same show, Mitsubishi took the wraps off a car that, if you squinted, you would swear blind was a new Mini.
多異ハツはまた Hummerのミニチュアモデルを作ってあやしくも
Nakedという名前を 付けた.
What about the teardrops on the headlights on latest batch of Hondas, such as the HR-V, Odyssey and the new Integra? A hint of BMW 3 Series perhaps? The tailights on the HR-V have a remarkable resemblance to the Volvo 850 wagon¥“s.
From a distance, Toyota¥“s square-shaped MR2 looks like a Porsche Boxster.
The original Toyota Celica was so inspired by the Ford Mustang of the era that today¥“s enthusiasts call it the Mustang Celica.
遠くから見ればトヨタの MR-2はポルシェ Boxterを 似ている.
セルリカは Mustangでお爺さんを受けた.
Now, even after 10 years, Lexus still hasn¥“t broken its clone-like mould. The latest Lexus LS430 has the sillouette of the superseded Mercedes S Class and a headlight theme borrowed from the new S Class.
10年が経ったが Lexusは相変らず臨書だ止めない.
When the covers came off the fourth generation Lexus at the Detroit Motor Show two years ago, Mercedes-Benz broke its corporate silence over what it called Japanese copycat cars but stopped short of calling it plagiarism.
People explain to us it is really an honour to have someone copy our cars, but I don¥“t think we see it that way any more, said Harald Leschke, the head of design at Mercedes-Benz. I think it is quite obvious that they admire the design, then try to do it their way. I¥“m sure in some industries this sort of thing is not legal.
What surprises us most is that [Lexus] are prepared to do it, in public, and that customers are prepared to buy their copycat cars.
人々は私たちのためを引き写すことは栄え栄えしい事だと言うが,
私はこれ以上そのように思うの ないベンツのデザイン室長.
もっと驚くべきなことは Lexusは不法的な copyが用意していて
顧客たちはそのベキンチァリャングを買う用意ができたということ
I think it¥“s fair to say all their cars have been influenced by someone else¥“s models, he said. They don¥“t have a history so they have to copy someone else¥“s.
内考えには Lexusはすべての種類の車でお爺さんを受けたと言うのがいいね. 彼らは 歴史がないから他人の物を引き写すしかない
Industry experts argue that a flagship Lexus made sense when it was considerably cheaper than the German benchmarks. But now that it is priced the same, there¥“s less incentive to drive an imitation. Nevertheless, Europe¥“s car maker have now become so concerned about Japan¥“s sincere forms of flattery that they are wary of showing concept cars of future models.
Porsche, for example, has deliberately not shown design studies of its Cayenne off-roader because it fears a Japanese maker will be able to release its interpretation just as Porsche unveils the real thing.
ポルシェはカイエンのデザインスタディ(スケッチ)を公開しないことにした.
何故ならばポルシェの車公開と同時に日本が (同じようなものを)公開するのが恐ろしいからだ.
With computers and so much new design technology, development times of new models has greatly reduced, says Porsche Cars Australia marketing manager, Michael Bartsch. If we show a car three years before it is due to come out, someone else can have a copycat car out about the same time.
While it¥“s very flattering that certain companies see you as a benchmark it is a form of flattery we quite frankly could do without.
コンピューターによって新しいモデルをデザインする時間は非常に短くなった.Porsche オーストラリアマーケティングメニジョ, Michael Bartschさんが言った.
もし私たちが自動車市販 3年前にデザインを公開したら誰かは 引き写したデザインの自動車を私たちの同じ時期に公開することができる
So why does Japan do it? According to Drive¥“s Japanese correspondent, Peter Lyon, an ex-pat Aussie who has lived there for the past 12 years, there are several reasons. At the core of the problem, he says, is Japan¥“s conservative culture and the fact that Japanese car makers have less history from which to draw inspiration than their European counterparts.
それならどうして日本はコピーをするか?
日本 Driveだ寄稿者 Peter Lyonさんはそれにはいくつかの理由があると説明する.
日本の保守的な文化と 日本自動車メーカーの短い歴史を理由で持っている.
The Japanese have a proverb which says, ¥“The nail that sticks out gets banged down¥”, Lyon says. With 120 million-plus people crammed into an area roughly the size of NSW, the Japanese maintain the peace by choosing not to rock the boat.
日本諺に飛び出したくぎはマッヌンダと言うのがある.
1億2千名の越える人々が New South Wales州ほどの大きさの地で住んでいる.
日本人たちは平穏な状態を維持するのを願う.
In high school, they do not have debates and students are not encouraged to ask teachers questions. No-one challenges the political system or sends up the Imperial family.
They do not like to point the finger, nor does their psyche promote constructive criticism. In this environment, world-beating design is all but non-existent.
高等学校で彼らは討論がなくて学生たちは先生に質問をしない.
誰も政治的なシステムと天皇家族に挑戦をしない
For example in Europe, Lyon says, designers style dresses to highlight a woman¥“s curves; in Japan, the kimono suppresses curves and creates a single, monotone shape. Therefore European car stylists draw inspiration from art, philosophy, sculpture, architecture and the human form; Japanese designers package their cars in shapes that appeal to the lowest common denominator.
例えばヨーロッパで衣装は女人の体つきを著しくするが, 日本キモノ−は体つきを隠して 単純で一つ形態のみを持つ.だからヨーロッパ自動車 スタイルは彼らの芸術,哲学,切れ,建築物と人間で起因するが日本のデザイナーは大多数人にアッピールするデザインをする.
Japanese women still are taught that a man¥“s appearance is not as critical as his performance at work, as a kind of corporate warrior, says Lyon. The stylists who pen today¥“s cars are typical salarymen - monotone men with black hair, dark blue suits and white shirts.
日本のデ−ザインノドルは典型的なサラリーマンで黒い髪に濃い青色洋服と白いシャツの単調な 男たちだ
The lack of history is also an Achilles heel. Japan had no horse-and-carriage era. True, the nobility were transported in carriages for a time, but these were import!!ed or the designs were copied.
歴史の不足もアキレス腱だ. 日本は 馬と馬車の時代がなかった. 日本貴族たちが馬車を利用した 時期があったが皆輸入されてコピーなったことだけだった.
So the country skipped a critical phase in its maturation process as a car stylist. Too often, designers took the easy option and borrowed looks from around the world.
それで日本は自動車スタイリストの成熟期をそのまま通り過ぎてボリンゴッだ. それであまりよくデザイナーたちは世界でデザインを借りて来るようになった.
일본의 모방문화, 道를 넘은 도요타 베끼기(pakuri)
일본인은 도대체 독창성이란 것이 없습니다! 한국을 비난할 처지가 아닐텐데?
일본의 문화는 pakuri 그 자체입니다!

So why does Japan do it? According to Drive"s Japanese correspondent, Peter Lyon, an ex-pat Aussie who has lived there for the past 12 years, there are several reasons. At the core of the problem, he says, is Japan"s conservative culture and the fact that Japanese car makers have less history from which to draw inspiration than their European counterparts.
그렇다면 왜 일본은 카피를 하는가?
일본 Drive지 기고자 Peter Lyon씨는 그것에는 몇가지 이유가 있다고 설명한다.
일본의 보수적인 문화와 일본 자동차 메이커의 짧은 역사를 이유로 들고있다.
"The Japanese have a proverb which says, "The nail that sticks out gets banged down"," Lyon says. "With 120 million-plus people crammed into an area roughly the size of NSW, the Japanese maintain the peace by choosing not to rock the boat.
일본 속담에 "튀어나온 못은 맞는다"라는게 있다.
1억2천명이 넘는 사람들이 New South Wales州만한 크기의 땅에서 살고 있다.
일본인들은 평온한 상태를 유지 하길 원한다.
"In high school, they do not have debates and students are not encouraged to ask teachers questions. No-one challenges the political system or sends up the Imperial family.
"They do not like to point the finger, nor does their psyche promote constructive criticism. In this environment, world-beating design is all but non-existent."
"고등학교에서 그들은 토론이 없고 학생들은 선생에게 질문을 하지도 않는다.
누구도 정치적인 시스템과 일왕가족에게 도전을 하지 않는다"
For example in Europe, Lyon says, designers style dresses to highlight a woman"s curves; in Japan, the kimono suppresses curves and creates a single, monotone shape. Therefore European car stylists draw inspiration from art, philosophy, sculpture, architecture and the human form; Japanese designers package their cars in shapes that appeal to the lowest common denominator.
예를들면 유럽에서 의상은 여인의 몸매를 두드러 지게 하지만, 일본 키모노는 몸매를 숨기고 단순하고 한가지 형태만을 가진다.그러므로 유럽 자동차 스타일은 그들의 예술,철학,조각,건축물과 인간에서 기인하지만 일본의 디자이너는 대다수 사람에게 어필하는 디자인을 한다.
"Japanese women still are taught that a man"s appearance is not as critical as his performance at work, as a kind of corporate warrior," says Lyon. "The stylists who pen today"s cars are typical salarymen - monotone men with black hair, dark blue suits and white shirts."
"일본의 디자인너들은 전형적인 셀러리맨이고 검은 머리에 진한 청색 양복과 하얀 셔츠의 단조로운 남자들이다"
The lack of history is also an Achilles heel. "Japan had no horse-and-carriage era. True, the nobility were transported in carriages for a time, but these were import!!ed or the designs were copied.
역사의 부족 또한 아킬레스건이다. "일본은 馬과 마차의 시대가 없었다. 일본귀족들이 마차를 이용한 시기가 있었지만 모두 수입되고 카피된것들 뿐이었다."
"So the country skipped a critical phase in its maturation process as a car stylist. Too often, designers took the easy option and borrowed looks from around the world."
"그래서 일본은 자동차 스타일리스트의 성숙기를 그냥 지나쳐 버린것이다. 그래서 너무 자주 디자이너들은 세계에서 디자인을 빌려오게 되었다."
