> Great question! If you want to capture the special nuance of “I have this
xxx…” (like Columbo’s famous “Just one more thing…” style), you
can use a slightly conversational, attention-getting phrasing in Japanese.
>
> This style often uses ほら (hora, “look” or “you know”), or 例の
(rei no, “that [famous/known] one”), or simply emphasizes “this lens of
mine” in a way that draws the listener in.
>
> Here’s a natural, nuanced way to say your sentence:
>
> 「あのね、この ニコンのレンズなんだけど、 ちょっと
に調子が悪くなってさ、 修理に出したら、今は もう
バッチリなんだよ！
>
> Romanization:
> Ano ne, kono Nikon no renzu nan da kedo, chotto mae ni ch
shi ga waruku natte sa, shūri ni dashitara, ima wa m
bacchiri nan da yo!
>
>
> ______________________
>
>
>
> Alternative (with “You know that lens of mine…” nuance)
>
> 「ほら、例のニコンのレンズ、
に調子悪かったんだけど、修理してもらって、
は絶好調なんだ。
>
> (Hora, rei no Nikon no renzu, mae ni ch
shi warukatta n da kedo, shūri shite moratte, ima wa zekk
ch
nan da.)
>
>
> Both versions capture the “I have this lens, you know…” nuance, just
like Columbo’s style in English.
> Let me know if you want it even more formal, casual, or with a different
nuance!
>
>
> 「あのさ、このニコンのレンズさ、
に問題があったんだけど、修理してもらって、
は絶好調なんだよ。
>
>
>
> To convey the nuance of “You see, I happen to have this…” in
Japanese—a casual, slightly humble way of introducing something you
possess—you can use expressions like:
>
> 「実はね、たまたまこのニコンのレンズを持っていて…
> (Jitsu wa ne, tamatama kono Nikon no renzu o motte ite…)
> — “You see, I happen to have this Nikon lens…”
>
> 「ちょっとね、偶然このニコンのレンズを持
ているんだけど…
> (Chotto ne, guuzen kono Nikon no renzu o motte iru n da kedo…)
> — “Well, you know, by chance I have this Nikon lens…”
okay, thanks a lot, that's enough food for thought, now what do we say?
