を介して/介した (wo shite shita)

by way of an intermediary; through something; via a medium

Meaning & usage

を介して expresses that an action happens through an intermediary person, object, or medium, such as an interpreter, a mutual friend, or the internet. It follows a noun, as in 通訳を介して or ネットを介して, and を介した is used when the phrase modifies a following noun. It sounds formal and written, so it is common in business or news style rather than casual conversation.
