にしてみれば (日本語能力試験 N1)

「にしてみれば」の情報

にしてみれば, usually written completely in hiragana, is an expression used when the speaker is making a hypothetical statement about how something may appear from the point of view of another. It will often be translated as 'from the point of view of (A), (B)', 'in the case of (A), (B)', or simply 'for (A), (B)'. Literally, the meaning is 'assuming that I was (A) and then looking from there, (B)'.
にしてみれば will appear after nouns that represent a person, or organizations representative of people. It is a combination of the case-marking particle に, the て-form of する, and the hypothetical form of 見(み)る, 見(み)れば.

上級者(じょうきゅうしゃ)には簡単(かんたん)かもしれないが、初心者(しょしんしゃ)にしてみればかなり難(むずか)しいと思(おも)う。

アニメをあまり知(し)らない人(ひと)にしてみれば、ポケモンもデジモンも同(おな)じアニメだ。
From the point of view of someone who doesn't watch anime, Pokemon and Digimon are the same anime.

As にしてみれば will exclusively follow words that indicate a person or a group of people, the (B) part of the phrase will usually discuss how the speaker assumes that they would feel given the situation. Because of this assumption, these sentences often finish with だろう, でしょう, かもしれない, and other similar structures.
