where there is a will, there is a way - 意志あるところに道あり【英語フレーズ】

みなさん、こんにちは!

「where there is a will, there is a way」

このフレーズは私たちが英語で使う素敵な表現です。
意味はシンプルで、しっかりと決意すればどんなことでも可能だ、ということです。

【例】

They are saying that in the future humans may live on Mars!  I don't think that is possible, do you?
(将来、人類は火星に住めるって言っているけど。そんなことが可能だとは思わないよね。)

Well a long time ago we’d never have believed man would walk on the moon. I suppose where there is a will there’s a way.
(でも、昔は人間が月面を歩くなんて信じられなかったでしょう。意志あるところに道は開ける、だと思いますよ。)

[English version]

Hello there everyone,

This is a nice expression that we use in English and it simply means that if you have enough determination anything is possible.

Example

“They are saying that in the future humans may live on Mars!  I don't think that is possible, do you?”

“Well a long time ago we’d never have believed man would walk on the moon. I suppose where there is a will there’s a way.”
