Comment bien utiliser "時点" ?
formal
A specific moment or stage in a process or timeline.
その事件が起きた時点を正確に特定する必要がある。
We need to accurately identify the point in time when the incident occurred.
この時点では、まだ結論を出すのは早い。
At this point in time, it's too early to draw a conclusion.
Often used in formal contexts such as reports, academic writing, or business discussions to refer to a precise moment in a sequence of events.
Pro Tip
Distinguish from 瞬間
Use 時点 when referring to a specific moment in a timeline or process (e.g., 'at the point when...'). Use 瞬間 when referring to a very brief period of time (e.g., 'in a moment').
Word Origin
Composed of the kanji 時 (time, moment) and 点 (point), reflecting the concept of a specific moment in time.
Usage Notes
時点 is slightly more formal than 瞬間 (shunkan, 'moment') and is often used in written or technical contexts. It emphasizes the exact timing within a sequence rather than a brief duration.
