À propos de ずにはおかない

ずにはおかない is a combination of the classical auxiliary verb ず, the case-marking particle に, the adverbial particle は, and the standard negated form of the う-Verb ()く, ()かない, ‘to set aside’, or ‘to leave as is’. It is interpreted as ‘(A) will definitely happen’, or ‘I will not fail to (A)’.

This is a formal expression that literally means ‘I cannot leave it as it is with (A) undone’, and therefore indicates strong will to complete the action that is reflected in the standard translations.

As this structure begins with ず, it will only be used with verbs.

Alternatively, ないでは may replace ず. This will be seen as ないではおかない. However, the meaning will not change at all.

Caution

Due to this grammar expression showing strong will to not give up until (A) is done, it will often be used with causative verbs in (A). This indicates that the speaker is determined not to quit until they can make another person do something.

        The verb here is 置く right? I’m trying to internalize what this means literally, although I suspect this is going to trip me up the same way ずにはいられない・てはいられない・わけにはいかない continue to.

        Hey @wrt7MameLZE33wlmpCAV !

        The おく used here is actually 措く, which mean to ‘stop something in the middle of’. 置くis used for physical things, while 措く is used for something more conceptual.

        箸を置く。is ‘to place your chopsticks down’, but 箸を措く。means ‘to stop eating’.

        So the literal meaning of 〜ずにはおかない, would be ‘would certainly not stop without [verb]’. So, for example, 絶対に「ごめんなさい」とわせずにはおかない’s literal translation would be ‘I will certainly not stop without making him say that he is sorry’ with the nuance of ’ I won’t fail to get him to say ‘I’m sorry’ because the speaker has a strong will to make the person say that he is sorry, and there is nothing that will stop the speaker from doing so.

        I hope that answers your question!
