Comments: | The JEs all have the "X and Y" pattern, which I think is an appropriate nuance. |

Comments: | Japanese has some neat words. This seems to be a relatively bog-standard word for "behavior" (or "conduct") that explicitly includes speech. (vs., say, 行動). Whether "speech" needs to be expressly included in a translation is situation-dependent, often it does not. My encounter: あの年の男子は女の言動に一喜一憂するからな tr1. boys that age are easily effected by how girls treat them (I considered "treatment" as a gloss, but that's not so well supported) tr2. girls can make the emotions of boys that age swing wildly. (女の言動 is simplified into "girls" (their actions and words implied)) Since I'm here, "words and actions" seems more commonplace than "words and deeds". I've just gone ahead and left "words and deeds" in as well; you could drop it. But I would object to "speech and deeds" or "speech and actions" as unidiomatic. I think it's better to repeat "words" than force in another synonym of "speech" into a clunky pairing. I think it's better to offer "conduct" than "speech and conduct", and including both would certainly send a confusing message. |
