N1

〜たるもの

Meaning

Expresses the obligation or mindset that a person in such a superior position or status naturally ought to behave a certain way, or must not do certain things. Attached to a noun, as in 「教師たる者」, it states the attitude befitting that position. It shares the same origin as 「〜たる〜」, which links one noun to another.

Examples
  1. 教師たるもの、学生に対して常に公平な態度で接しなければならない。 A teacher must always treat students with fairness.
  2. 上に立つリーダーたるもの、困難な状況でも冷静さを失ってはいけない。 A leader must never lose composure even in difficult situations.
  3. 親たるもの、子どもの手本となるよう行動すべきだ。 As a parent, one should act so as to be a role model for one's children.
