How do you say "hard to overlook"?


'Overlook' in the sense of forgiving, or letting something slide. All the
words I can find that seem to be very close in meaning--
大目に見る、不問に付す、聞き捨てにする、罷り通る--don't seem to be used in conjunction with にくい (or
づらい), which is something I really want to use to get across that it's hard but
not impossible. The closest thing I can think of is 許しにくい, but it lacks the
indirectness and slight scorn that comes with the other verbs.

Context: "His actions are getting increasingly hard to overlook."




I agree that "にくい" and "づらい" are somehow somewhat incompatible with the
phrases you suggested. I think the suffix "-難い(がたい)" fares a lot better with
them (大目に見難い, 不問に付し難い, 聞き捨てにし難い, 罷り通し難い).

Also there's an idiom that captures the whole "hard to overlook" sense, which
is: **"目に余る"**. Using this expression, we may say something like:

> 「最近の彼の行動は日増しに目に余るようになってきている。」 Or more tersely, 「彼の最近の行動は目に余る。」
