Refs: | Daijr: "災害を防ぐこと。" GG5: "prevention of damage 「by [as a result of] a ( ) disaster." 中辞典: "disaster prevention; protection against disaster". JMdict: "防ぐ (ふせぐ) (v5g,vt) (1) to defend against; to protect against; (2) to prevent; to avert; to avoid" |
|
Comments: | Many JEs just have "disaster prevention", but I suspect it's based on the other sense of 防ぐ. GG5 gets it right. There's been a long thread on the translators' FB page about this one. |
