教養 and 知識: general cultivation and kinds of knowledge
Read general cultural literacy alongside specialized knowledge, knowledge of a local culture, and knowledge supporting judgment. Compare content and scope without imposing a depth-versus-breadth hierarchy.
Content shared by cultivation and knowledge
教養 (きょうよう) concerns general education or cultural literacy, while 知識 (ちしき) means knowledge. The examples identify general cultivation, specialized knowledge, and knowledge of a local culture as particular kinds of content.
Wanting general cultivation alongside specialized knowledge allows the two to coexist. It does not mean that cultivation excludes knowledge or that one word always describes deeper understanding. Cultural knowledge can overlap with cultivation.
Reading and specialized knowledge together
「幅広い本を読むことは教養を深めるきっかけになる。」 — “Reading a wide range of books is an opportunity to deepen one's cultural literacy.” The sentence connects a wide range of reading with an opportunity to deepen cultural literacy. That connection does not make all 知識 narrow in scope.
「専門知識だけでなく一般的な教養も身につけたい。」 — “I want to develop broad cultural literacy as well as specialized knowledge.” だけでなく and も include both specialized knowledge and general cultivation. 身につけたい expresses the wish to acquire them, rather than completed acquisition.
Cultural knowledge and judgment
「旅の前に現地の文化について知識を深めた。」 — “Before traveling, I broadened my knowledge of the local culture.” Japanese 深めた refers to deepening, while the supplied English translation says broadened. Preserve that wording difference and identify the stated topic: local culture before traveling.
「正しい知識があれば、落ち着いて判断できる。」 — “Accurate knowledge helps you make calm judgments.” In the Japanese sentence, 正しい知識があれば states a condition and 判断できる describes an ability. The example relates accurate knowledge to calm judgment; it does not report a completed judgment or guarantee that every judgment is correct.
How do だけでなく and も connect the desired content in 専門知識だけでなく一般的な教養も身につけたい?
Show the answer and why
They include both specialized knowledge and general cultivation in what the speaker wants to acquire. Neither is excluded, and the wish does not report that the cultivation has already been acquired.
