Notation

調整します is usually written in kanji and hiragana: 調整します. * 調整 (ちょうせい) is the kanji word that means adjustment. * します (shimasu) is the polite -masu form of the verb する (suru), meaning "to do." * There are no other common ways to write this. * The okurigana, or the trailing hiragana, are fixed; they will always be します. * Conjugations include 調整しました (chousei shimashita - adjusted/have adjusted), 調整しません (chousei shimasen - will not adjust), 調整する (chousei suru - to adjust), and so on.

Synonyms

* 修正します (Shūsei shimasu) - to correct, to amend * 変更します (Henkō shimasu) - to change, to alter * 調節します (Chōsetsu shimasu) - to regulate, to control (similar, but with a slightly more technical nuance) * 改めます (Aratamemasu) - to revise, to amend (more formal)

Antonyms

* There isn't a single direct antonym for 調整します. * However, verbs like 固定します (Kotei shimasu - to fix/to set) or 維持します (Iji shimasu - to maintain) could be considered opposites in the sense of not making changes.

Etymology

The word 調整 is composed of two kanji: * 調 (chou) means "to investigate," "to examine," or "to tune." * 整 (sei) means "to put in order," "to arrange," or "to organize." * Together, they mean "to adjust," "to regulate," or "to tune," reflecting the process of bringing something into a desired state. The verb します (shimasu) is then added to make it a verb.
