Yes, “almost OK” can be used in English, and it carries a similar meaning to 大体OKです in Japanese. It implies that something is close to being acceptable or satisfactory, but not entirely perfect or complete. For example:
- “The project is almost OK, but it needs a few adjustments.”
- “Your idea is almost OK; just refine it a little.”
However, while “almost OK” is grammatically correct and understandable, it might sound slightly informal or less commonly used compared to alternatives like:
- “It’s nearly OK.”
- “It’s mostly fine.”
- “It’s almost there.”
The choice depends on the context and tone you want to convey.
