Bus/Financial - Media / Multimedia | | English term or phrase: Post | I am now in a localization of project of bulletin boards.
I have come across the following phrase:
------- Your daily new posts digest -------
This is one phrase in the news bulletin board, originally from a foreign country.
In case it is 'Your daily news digest' it is a straight to translate, But, posts is an odd.
I have often seen 'post' as a verb, for example, News posted to our bulletin board.
However, the above is used as a noun. In case of Post as a noun, it refers to goalpost, gatepost, fensepost and etc.
Although it seems like a noun, meaning something like a poster (to post with a wall with a poster), I would appreciate if you kindly give me a chance to reconfirm how I shall 'post' at this time. |

postには動詞で「掲示する、ポストする（不特定多数の人が読むような形で送る）」という意味がありますので、名詞になるとそのメッセージなり、ポストしたものになるのでは？
「Your daily new posts digest 」なら、「本日のあなたの投稿ダイジェスト（または概要）」みたいな感じでしょうか？

Ken-san, please have a look at http://www.alc.co.jp/
"Eijiro on the web" (online dictionary) is quite good. |

Asker: I have not been familiar with Alc because I was living out of Japan until recently. But your answer seems to be in the right direction.
Asker: Dear Akiko-san, Thank you very much for you information. I have tried Alc.co.jp. Their dictionary's search engines are far better than any other sites available for Japanese translation. I am feeling shameful on my unawareness with Alc.co.jp despite I have been translating to/from Japanese over 20 years. Now I got the excellent site, I would like to move on.
