How to say "fixture" in Japanese
Choosing the right word
- nounA common word, but essentially a mount or stand that holds or supports something; its 'fixture' gloss refers to that sense. For 'fixture' meaning an installed fitting, it is seldom the word you want.
- 上物うわものnounA fixture on a property — the house or trees standing on the land, for example. A less common word, covering what a property includes besides the land itself.
- nounThe direct loanword for 'fixture', covering its usual sense of fittings or equipment fixed in place. A less common word, but usually the safest choice when you simply mean 'fixture'.
Use 「フィクスチャー」 for 'fixture' in its usual sense of installed fittings, 上物 for fixtures on a property, such as a house or trees, and avoid 「マウント」, which is really a mount or stand.
