Today I am going to introduce Japanese idiomatic expressions using "口（くち/mouth）”.
Do you know the meaning of "口（くち）をきく”？　This is a question of JLPT N2.
There are a lot of words using "口（くち/ mouth）”　I think they are interesting.
I hope you enjoy Japanese words! Thank you!

JLPTの言語知識を問う問題に、「言葉の使い方として最もよいものを一つ選びなさい」というのがあります。
先日、生徒さんとN２の問題をしていたときに、
「口をきく」ということばがでてきました。
彼が選んだのは　「彼は味のことについては口をきいている」でした。
じつは、これはまちがいです。この文は「口うるさい」が合っていますね。　
正解の文は「主人と初めて口をきいたのは電車の中だった。」です。つまり、この「口をきく」は、「話をする」という意味で使われています。
「口」がつくことばは、ほかにもたくさんあります。
口がうまい　彼は口がうまいので、ついのせられてしまった。
口が重い　　父はその話になると口が重くなる。
口が堅い　　彼女は口が堅いので信用できる。
口が軽い　　彼は口が軽いから、大事なことは言わないほうがいいよ。
口が滑る　　うっかり口が滑って、彼女を怒らせてしまった。
口が悪い　　彼は口が悪いが、本当はいい人ですよ。
口げんかする　気が付いたらいつも妻と口げんかしている。
口コミ　　　　どのレストランにするかは、口コミを見てから決めることにしている。
口に合う　　　初めて食べたけど、このスープは口に合います。
口にする　　　体重チェックがあるので、朝から何も口にしていない。
口を出す　　　よその家のことに口を出すのはよくない。
口ぐせ　　　　　彼は一日に何度も「よし！」と言っている。きっと口ぐせなんだろう。
「口」が付く表現だけでなく、「足」「手」「鼻」など体の一部を使った表現はたくさんあります。　意味を知ると結構　おもしろいと思うので、興味がある人は　ぜひ　調べてみてくださいね。

In telephone screening interviews, it’s common for hiring managers to ask candidates for their salary expectations. Why do they ask this question? 

They want to make sure your salary expectations align with the amount they have budgeted for the job. The hiring manager is also testing you to see if you know and will ask for what you’re worth. 

While hiring managers have good reasons for asking this question upfront, it's tricky to answer it at the beginning of the job interview process. Consider that a salary is only one component of an overall benefits package. 

Yet, if you give a higher range than the company has set, they will eliminate you, and the company will never find out if you would have been worth paying a higher salary. So this question poses a real problem. 

You have to convince the employer to ask you this question later in the recruitment process or provide a well-informed range that doesn't get you eliminated from the candidate pool. By the time you are a top candidate, employers will be far more willing to give you the salary you want and deserve. 

In this episode, you will learn where to research an appropriate salary range for your role. You’ll also get three strategies for answering the question with sample responses.

By the end of the episode, you will be prepared to talk confidently about your salary expectations.
