Tentang ふりをする

ふりをする is an expression in Japanese that is used to show that someone is 'pretending to be (A)', 'putting on airs of (A)', or 'acting as if (A)'. This construction comes from a combination of the noun 振(ふ)り 'a shake', the case marking particle を, and する. It can be thought of as meaning 'to give off the impression of (A)', or 'to shake off the impression of (A)'.

As ふり itself is a noun, this expression may be used with the attributive form of any other word.

Fun Fact

The noun 振(ふ)り has several different nuances in Japanese, with only one of them being used in this particular expression. That meaning is 'to show a certain behavior pattern on the outside'. Due to this, ふり doesn't specifically mean 'to pretend', just that what is happening on the outside may be different to what is happening within a person (either mentally or physically).

        @Aythreuk I have updated both the Verb[た] grammar point page and this page with the information that @matt_in_mito provided. I have also updated the Structure for this grammar point. Cheers!

        I still don’t find any information it this grammar point about the difference between 〜た and 〜ている unless I missed something.

        I just got “When you pretended to cry, it was useless.” in a review, the default answer and the audio recording give “泣いたふりをしたって無駄ですよ”, however “泣いているふりをした…” is accepted as an alternative answer.

        Given that the past tense is carried by する here I’m still unsure what the nuance between the two is, if any.

        Is it simply “when you pretended to cry” vs. “when you were pretending to cry”?

        I struggle a lot with the different ways to conjugate that grammar point, probably because I don’t understand the difference in english either.

        What is the difference between saying:

        分()かっている ふりをしていた が and 分()かっている ふりをした が?

        Is it like saying this in english?

        I was pretending that I knew what was going on, but I didn’t understand anything.
        I pretended that I knew what was going on, but I didn’t understand anything.

        Assuming the second sentence is correct I don’t really see a difference in meaning.
