My teacher is sick. How do I tell her I am sorry?
Hi,
Can someone tell me how to say "I am sorry you are sick" in formal/polite Japanese? And can you please break down the sentence for me so that I know what I am saying? I haven't gotten that far in my classes, but my 先生 cancelled class today because she wasn't feeling well. All we have learned so far is how to say "I think . . . " and "I have . . " but we haven't quite gotten to the part where we learn how to express emotion and sympathy.
Thank you,
Brigitte R

As Rae-san wrote, it is important to end sentences with something like おだいじに.
Because it is for a teacher, I think it should be very polite.
I would write like this:
先生が体調を崩されたと聞きました。
(せんせいが たいちょうを くずされたと ききました)
I heard that you haven't been feeling well.
お加減、いかがですか?
(おかげん、いかがですか?)
How are you feeling?
どうぞ、お大事になさってください。
(どうぞ、おだいじに なさってください)
Please take good care of yourself!
体調をくずす(たいちょうをくずす)=to become ill
加減(かげん)=one's state of health
大事にする(だいじにする)=to take good care of oneself
I hope this will be of any help!

I don't think they have an expression for saying "sorry you are sick." That is weird to say in Japanese so I think they just say おだいじに which means take care of yourself. I would get a second opinion, but I hope this helped answer your question. :)
