the suffix "-ebil" that gives the meaning "can" 

A record 78% of Japanese people feel anxious or worried, according to a new government survey.

That's the highest proportion in the 43 years the government has been asking people about these feelings.

Common worries among the adults who took part included health, life after retirement, and future income. Almost 64% of people said they're worried about their health, while 63% said they're worried about what their lives will look like after they stop working.

This was quite a small survey, however, and it was done by mail, with only 1,830 people across the country taking part.

Previous surveys have been done in person, and the government said people should be cautious before making comparisons between this year's survey and those done in the past.

But the survey did find that people in Japan are a little happier with their finances this year than they were in 2023.

However, 66% of people said they think the government should do more to combat inflation.

It's not just in Japan that people are anxious. Other reports have found that this is a real problem around the world.

At the end of 2023, almost half of young workers from seven countries said they found it difficult to work because they were so worried about what they saw in the news. Many felt they were living in a time of uncertainty, with wars happening across the world and geopolitical tensions rising.

Japanese People More Anxious than Ever — Survey

Mrs Frisby looked again at the sun and saw that she faced an unpleasant choice. She could go home by the same roundabout way she had come, in which case she would surely end up walking alone in the woods in the dark — a frightening prospect, for at night the forest was alive with danger. Then the owl came out to hunt, and foxes, weasels and strange wild cats stalked among the tree trunks. The other choice would be dangerous, too, but with luck it would get her home before dark. That would be to take a straighter route, across the farmyard between the barn and the chicken house, going not too close to the house but cutting the distance by half. The cat would be there somewhere, but by daylight — and by staying in the open, away from the shrubs — she could probably spot him before he saw her.
The cat: He was called Dragon. Farmer Fitzgibbon’s wife had given him the name as a joke when
he was a small kitten pretending to be fierce. But when he grew up, the name turned out to be an apt one. He was enormous, with a huge, broad head and a large mouth full of curving fangs, needle sharp. He had seven claws on each foot and a thick, furry tail, which lashed angrily from side to side. In colour he was orange and white, with glaring yellow eyes; and when he leaped to kill, he gave a high, strangled scream that froze his victims where they stood.

Japanese daily life podcast のAtsushiです。
このPodcastは、日本語を勉強しているみなさんに向けたPodcastです。


みなさんはKindle Unlimitedに入っていますか？
知っている人が多いと思いますが、簡単に説明しますね。

調べてみたんですが、現在サービスを展開している国は、アメリカ、イギリス、ドイツ、フランス、イタリア、スペイン、ブラジル、メキシコ、カナダ、インド、中国、だそうです。

ぼくももちろん入っていて、たくさんは読みませんが、今知りたいことに関する本は読むことがあります。



それで、今日は1つお知らせがあります。
実は、Kindleで日本語学習のための本を出しました！
簡単な本です。

日本語で良く使う名詞を50コ、ピックアップしました。
その名詞を使った例文を10コずつ載せた本です。

アルファベットでふりがなをつけましたので、日本語をまだ読めない人でも、少し読みやすいと思います。

英語の訳もつけました。日本語の意味を確認しながら、勉強することができます。

この本はKindleで買うことができますが、実はunlimitedなら無料で読むことができます！すごいですよね。本当に便利な時代です。

WEBサイトやYouTubeだと広告が出てきて気が散りますね。ですが、Kindleで読むと当たり前ですが、本の中には広告は出ません。これは学習に集中できるのでとても良いと思います。


今回ははじめて名詞50コの本を作ってみましたので、興味がある人はぜひunlimitedで読んでみてください！名詞のいろんな使い方が分かりますので、声に出しながら読むと記憶に残りやすくなりますよ！

ということで、今回はKindle unlimitedで日本語学習のための本を出しました！という話でした。
