回復
In this dialogue, 回復 means recovery, as in recovering from a condition. It appears in the reusable expression 回復する for talking about recovery before resuming normal activities. You could use it when explaining why you need time away from work, exercise, or another activity.
する
In 回復する, する completes the expression meaning to recover; the exact form is 回復する. This pattern combines a noun-like activity or process with する, and 回復する can be used when describing the process of getting better.
間
In 回復する間, 間 means while or during the period when recovery is taking place. The pattern 回復する間 places the activity before 間 to show the time span. You can use it when describing what happens during a temporary period.
会員資格
会員資格 means membership status or the rights connected with being a member. In 会員資格を一時停止したいです, it is the thing the speaker wants to pause. This term is useful when discussing the conditions or status of membership.
を
を marks 会員資格 as the object affected by 一時停止したいです in 会員資格を一時停止したいです. A reusable pattern is nounを action, with を placed after the thing receiving the action. Use it when identifying what you want to pause, submit, or change.
一時停止
一時停止 means a temporary pause or suspension, and here it refers to pausing membership. In 一時停止したいです, it identifies the requested action before the desire ending. You can use it for a service, account, or membership that should stop temporarily and resume later.
したい
In 一時停止したいです, したい means want to do, so the complete expression means want to pause temporarily. It follows 一時停止 to express the speaker's wish and is softened by です here. Use the pattern noun or action＋したい when making a personal request.
です
です gives the statement 一時停止したいです a polite ending. It makes the speaker's wish suitable for a conversation with facility staff. You can use it after a polite statement when making a request or explaining your situation.
短い
短い means short in 短い申請書, describing an application form that does not require much information or space. It comes directly before the noun it describes. You can use 短い with a form, message, meeting, or other limited-length item.
申請書
申請書 means application form, specifically the form used to request the temporary freeze. In 短い申請書に記入すれば, it is the document that the person fills in. This word is useful when submitting a formal request for a service or status change.
に
In 申請書に記入すれば, に marks the form as the place or document where information is entered. The reusable pattern is documentに記入する, meaning to fill in a document. Use it when saying where information should be written.
記入
記入 means filling in or entering information, and here it refers to completing the application form. The expression 申請書に記入すれば connects the form with the act of filling it in. You can use 記入 when writing required information on a form or document.
すれば
In 記入すれば, すれば means if you fill in or by filling in, introducing the condition for making the request. It presents the action as the step that makes 申請できます possible. Use this form when explaining what someone needs to do for a result to occur.
申請
申請 means an application or formal request, and here it is the request for a temporary freeze. In 一時停止を申請できます, it identifies what can be formally requested. You can use it with a service, benefit, extension, or other official request.
できます
できます means can or be able to in 一時停止を申請できます. It says that submitting the form makes the temporary suspension request possible. A reusable pattern is nounを申請できます when explaining that someone can apply for something.
書類
書類 means documents or paperwork, and here it refers to documentation the member can provide. In 書類は提出できます, it is the topic being offered for submission. You can use 書類 when discussing paperwork needed for an application or procedure.
は
In 書類は提出できます, は marks 書類 as the topic and sets it apart from the private details mentioned afterward. This lets the speaker say that documents can be provided while limiting the information shared. Use は when introducing a topic or making a contrast.
提出
提出 means submission or submitting, and here it describes providing documents to the facility. The expression 書類は提出できます means that the documents can be submitted. You can use 提出 with documents, forms, applications, or other materials sent to an organization.
が
In 提出できますが, が connects the statement that documents can be submitted with the contrasting wish to keep details private. Here it means but rather than identifying a grammatical subject. Use this pattern when acknowledging one point before adding a limitation or different preference.
詳しい
詳しい means detailed in 詳しい内容, referring to information that contains more specific detail. It comes before 内容 to describe the type of information the speaker prefers not to disclose. You can use 詳しい before a noun when asking for or discussing specific information.
内容
内容 means contents or details, and here it refers to the detailed information in the documentation. 詳しい内容は伏せておきたいです expresses a wish to keep those details undisclosed. You can use 内容 when referring to what a document, message, explanation, or request contains.
伏せて
In 内容は伏せておきたいです, 伏せて means keep hidden or withhold, referring to keeping the detailed contents undisclosed. The form 伏せて connects this action with おきたい, which expresses the desired continued state. You can use it when respectfully saying that sensitive information will not be revealed.
おきたい
In 伏せておきたいです, おきたい means want to leave or keep something in a particular state, here wanting the details to remain withheld. Together with 伏せて, it expresses a continuing preference rather than only a momentary action. Use the pattern verb in the て-form＋おきたい when you want something to remain arranged or handled that way.
必要
必要 means necessary or needed, and here it introduces what the form requires. The sentence uses 必要なのは基本的な確認だけ to focus on the limited required information. You can use 必要 when explaining what is required for an application or procedure.
な
In 必要なのは, な links 必要 with the nominalizing の before the topic marker は. This exact form allows the sentence to focus on what is necessary. You can reuse the pattern 必要なのは＋item when stating the specific thing that is needed.
の
In 必要なのは基本的な確認だけ, の turns the preceding description into the focused phrase meaning what is necessary. It is part of the construction 必要なのは, not a separate meaning about possession here. Use this pattern when identifying the requirement in a situation.
基本的
基本的 means basic or fundamental in 基本的な確認, describing confirmation limited to essential information. It is followed by な before the noun 確認. You can use 基本的な＋noun when describing a simple, essential level of information or procedure.
確認
確認 means confirmation or verification, and here it is the basic confirmation the form needs. 基本的な確認だけ limits the requirement to this essential check. You can use 確認 when checking information, receiving approval, or verifying a request.
だけ
だけ means only or just in 基本的な確認だけ, emphasizing that basic confirmation is sufficient. It narrows the requirement and contrasts with the diagnosis details that are not needed. Use noun＋だけ when stating that the amount or type is limited.
で
In 基本的な確認だけで, で means with or by using only basic confirmation, showing that this condition is sufficient. It connects the limited confirmation to the following statement about what is not required. You can use nounだけで when explaining that something is enough on its own.
診断
診断 means diagnosis, and here it identifies the medical assessment whose details do not need to be provided. In 診断の詳細, it modifies 詳細 through の. You can use 診断 when discussing a diagnosis in a medical or administrative context.
詳細
詳細 means details, and in 診断の詳細 it refers specifically to the detailed information about the diagnosis. The phrase is presented as information the form does not require. You can use 詳細 when referring to specific or fine-grained information about a matter.
ありません
ありません means there is not or is not required in 診断の詳細は必要ありません. It politely states that diagnosis details are unnecessary. You can use it after a noun when explaining that an item or requirement is absent or not needed.
それ
それ means that or it, and here it refers to the preceding explanation that only basic confirmation is needed. In それなら, it introduces the speaker's conclusion based on that information. You can use それ to refer back to something already mentioned.
なら
In それなら, なら means if that is the case or then, linking the previous information to the speaker's reaction. The expression signals that the next statement follows from what was just explained. Use it when responding to a condition or clarification from another person.
しやすい
しやすい means easy to do in 申請書に記入しやすいです. It says that the application is easier for the speaker to complete because less private information is required. A reusable pattern is verb stem＋しやすい for something that is easy to perform.
されれば
In 申請が確認されれば, されれば means if it is reviewed or confirmed, with the request receiving that action. It introduces the condition for the membership freeze to begin. Use a passive conditional like this when an organization's review or processing must happen first.
開始
開始 means start or commencement, and here it refers to the beginning of the membership freeze. In 一時停止を開始できます, it describes when the pause can begin after review. You can use 開始 with a service, procedure, event, or period of activity.
その
その means that or the, and in その後 it points back to the relevant preceding period or event. It combines with 後 to mean afterward. You can use その＋noun when referring to something already identified in the conversation.
後
In その後, 後 means afterward or after that, referring to the time after the freeze period. It places the question about access restart after the earlier process. You can use nounの後 or その後 to describe what happens after an event.
利用資格
利用資格 means eligibility or authorization to use something, and here it refers to access to the fitness facility. In 利用資格は自動的に再開されますか, it is the status expected to resume. You can use it when discussing whether someone is allowed to use a service or facility.
自動的に
自動的に means automatically in 自動的に再開されますか. It asks whether the restart happens without another request from the member. You can use 自動的に when a system or procedure acts on its own after a condition is met.
再開
再開 means restart or resume, and here it refers to access becoming available again after the temporary freeze. In 自動的に再開されますか, it is the action whose automatic timing is being asked about. You can use 再開 for services, activities, access, or operations that were paused.
されます
In 再開されますか, されます expresses the polite passive form meaning is resumed or is restarted. It presents the restart as something carried out for the user's access rather than as the user's direct action. You can use this polite form when asking whether an administrative process will be performed.
か
か marks 自動的に再開されますか as a polite question. It turns the statement about automatic restarting into a request for confirmation. You can place か at the end of a polite sentence when asking about a procedure or expected result.
よう
In そのようになります, よう means way or manner and refers to the outcome just asked about. The whole expression means it will turn out that way, so よう should be understood together with その and なります. You can use そのように or そのようになります when confirming that something will happen as described.
なります
In そのようになります, なります means will become or will turn out, describing the expected result that access will restart automatically. Together with そのよう, it confirms the preceding possibility. You can use this polite expression when explaining how a process will proceed.
まで
In それまでに, まで means until or by, setting the deadline before the automatic restart. The phrase means by then, with それ referring to the previously mentioned time. You can use time or event＋までに when an action must be completed before a deadline.
延長
延長 means extension, and here it refers to extending the temporary freeze period. In 延長を申請した場合, it is the thing the member may formally request. You can use 延長 with memberships, deadlines, stays, contracts, or other periods that can be made longer.
した
In 申請した場合, した is the past form of the action expressed by 申請する, meaning requested or applied for. It appears before 場合 to describe the case in which the member has made an extension request. You can use verb past form＋場合 when describing a situation that has occurred.
場合
場合 means case or situation in 延長を申請した場合. It introduces the condition in which the normal automatic restart does not apply. You can use nounの場合 or clause＋場合 when explaining what happens under a particular circumstance.
別
In 場合は別です, 別 means different or an exception, indicating that the outcome is different if an extension is requested. It does not mean that the request itself is separate; it marks an exception to the expected restart. You can use 別です when saying that a stated rule does not apply in a particular case.
