Japanese term or phrase: 挙げ得る
This is from a 1940s academic essay, to give you some context. Here is the full sentence and previous sentence:

しかも、その英語はよくイギリス人やアメリカ人を感動させる英語であったとわたくしは聞いている。これはもう当然そうあるべきことであって、日本人は今そういう語学力を持った人を必要としているのである。この心構えが教師にもでき、学生にもできれば、日本人の外国語教育は、従来に比(ひ)して数倍の効果を挙げ得るのではないかと思う。

Although this isn't the translation of the source text, what it means is that with this mindset, the foreign language education in Japan may have much better outcomes than before.
