How to say "aggregation" in Japanese
Choosing the right word
- nounCovers aggregation in the everyday sense of gathering things together or summing them up into a summary or recapitulation. Choose this for general talk of pulling points or results together, rather than for statistical tabulation.
- 集計しゅうけいnoun, suru verb, transitive verbCovers aggregation as totalization: compiling numbers into a total, such as tallying votes or survey results. This is the word for statistical or numerical aggregation of data.
- 集成しゅうせいnoun, suru verb, transitive verbMatched to aggregation as its gloss, it covers the sense of combining separate elements into one integrated whole. In practice it often reads as compilation or integration, so it is not the usual everyday word for aggregation.
Use 「まとめ」 for summarizing or gathering things together, 集計 for totaling or tallying figures such as votes or data, and 集成 for the more technical sense of combining elements into one aggregate.
