進度

What it means

What does 進度 mean? It denotes the level or pace of progress in a task, project, or process. It is used to measure how far a given activity has advanced relative to plan, timeframe, or expectations, conveying a sense of development rather than mere completion.

Main meanings

• General sense of how far something has advanced.
• Pace or rate of development relative to a plan or target in formal contexts.
• Used in discussions of class progress or project milestones to describe current status, not just final completion.

How to use it

Used in formal planning and reporting to indicate how far a process has progressed or the pace relative to a target; in everyday speech, 進度 is less common than 進捗. Examples: 授業の進度を確認するための報告書を提出する; プロジェクトの進度を週次で更新する; 研究の進度を測る指標を設定する.
