Moekoの日本語ベラベラtimeEpi27: 自分を大切にすること【Japanese Podcast: listening practice】

「ひっくりかえす（ひっくり返す）」
　
　「自転車を修理するために、ひっくり返す必要がある。」

この例文での「ひっくり返す」の使い方は　どうでしょうか？

私はちょっと違和感（いわかん）を感じます。

辞書には、このように書かれていました。
「ひっくり返す」は　裏表を逆に向けること
「逆さまにする」は　上下、前後、裏表など　本来あるべき状態と反対にすること

ですから、先の例文は「自転車を修理するために、逆さまにする必要がある」のほうがいいのでは？

そして、「ひっくり返す」は、「パンケーキをひっくり返す」ならイメージがぴったりですね。

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊
Today's word "hikkurikaesu"

Japanese translation for "turn the bike upside down"  is "Jitensha wo hikkurikaesu".  Is it right?
I feel a little bit strange.  This word "Hikkurikaesu" means reversing front and back.
We have other word for "turn upside down", that is "sakasamanisuru".
Sakasamanisuru can be used for turning up-down, right-left, front-rear, and front-back. 
So, I think "sakasamanisuru" is better for that sample sentense.

"Jitensha wo sakasamanisuru."
