Tentang 万が一

万(まん)が一(いち), or sometimes simply 万一(まんいち) is a grammar pattern that literally means '1 in 10000'. It is used in a similar way to phrases such as 'in the unlikely event of (A)', or 'just in case (A)' in English, and will usually highlight some measure against (A), or what will happen as a result of (A) in the latter half of the sentence.

万(まん)が一(いち) is primarily used adverbially, so will often come at the beginning of sentences.

Fun-fact

万(まん)が一(いち) is considered slightly stronger than 万一(まんいち), but 万(まん)が一(いち) is far more common due to it being easier to pronounce.

        I’ve noticed that 万一 often appears in the phrase 万一に備える, to mean to provide against contingencies. Is that true of 万が一 as well?

      • Fuga

        Fuga

        Hey there!

        万一 is just a short 万が一 with the が omitted, so both would work with that phrase! I hope that answers your question!

      • Brand_S

        Brand_S

        It does! Thank you! I’ve actually only ever seen 万一に備える in the wild. I didn’t know until I saw that grammar item that 万一 was still used in other contexts!
