Here's a word with a mixed reputation, and whether you consider it a positive trait or not might depend on how closely it applies to you!
IDEALISTIC 理想主義の
- To be idealistic is to speak or act according to strong beliefs (for example, about what is fair or morally right), especially when it may not seem realistic or practical to others.
- idealistic は、(例えば、公正さや道徳的な正しさについての)強い信念に従って発言したり行動したりする、つまり、理想主義、のという意味で、特に、他の人にはそうした言動が現実的、実践的に思えないような場合に用います。
- I used to think she was too idealistic to be successful in business, but she sure proved me wrong.
- Many smaller environmental organizations rely on volunteers, especially idealistic college students with lots of energy and enthusiasm.
- The company is very conservative and takes a pragmatic approach to everything. I don't think management will listen to such idealistic views.
You're a natural!
