한국어의 ‘어색하다’는
사람 사이뿐 아니라 분위기나 공기를 말할 때도 자주 써요.

“사이가 어색해요”,
“어색한 공기였어요” 같은 표현을 통해
요즘 한국어에서 자연스럽게 쓰이는 느낌을 알아볼까요?

おはようございます。日本語だんだpodcastのゆかりです。

今日は「おつかれさまです」について
はなします。

"おつかれさまです"

聞いたことがありますか？

仕事のとき、よくいいます。

たとえば、こんにちは　のかわりに、

「あ、田中さん、おつかれさまです。」

といいます。

ほかにも、さようなら　のかわりに、

「佐藤さん、おつかれさまです。
明日もよろしくおねがいします。」

といいます。

"おつかれさまです"は、
年上(としうえ)の人にも
年下(としした)の人にもいいます。
みんなに、つかいます。

にている言葉(ことば)に

"ごくろうさまです"があります。

でもこれは、立場(たちば)が上の人が、
下の人にいいます。

私は"ごくろうさまです"を
つかったことがありません。

いつも、"おつかれさまです"をつかいます。

人によると思います。

では、今日も最後まで聞いてくれて、だんだん、です！

また明日。

One important part of the history of civilization is recorded statements or, you can say, famous quotations from historical people. The words first spoken by the first man who set foot on the moon, Neil Armstrong, is an example. In this podcast, I show how I used artificial intelligence (AI) to enhance the quality of these famous words.

The first man on the moon

Part 1 of 5. 

Inside a dusty workroom, an old craftsman held up a chess piece to the window. He rotated it in the sunlight and inspected its every detail. 

“Perfection,” said the craftsman. 

He added it to the set he had been building. Sixteen grey pieces sat on his worktable, all handmade and almost ready for sale. 

The craftsman felt very satisfied with his designs. He was ready for the final stage of the process. He picked up one of the pawn pieces and said, “What about you, my little friend? What colour would you like to be?” 

He reached for his paint brush, dunked it into glass of water and then into a container of paint. The grey pawn received a heavy coating of shiny white paint.

Fast-forward several years into the future. After repeated use and abuse, that little pawn’s proud white colour had faded. Areas of his original grey were visible. Because of this, whenever players assembled their chess set, they left this little grey-white pawn to the side. 

“Uhm, is that yours or mine?” said the white player. 

“It doesn’t matter. Put it back in the box and choose from the others,” said the black player. 

This little plastic pawn’s name was Gary.

They discuss:

The biggest English communication mistakes healthcare professionals make (and it’s not grammar)

Why miscommunication can create emotional stress for both patients and providers

How empathy, trust, and active listening can improve patient care

The powerful results her clients see through one-on-one coaching

In Part 4 of Neil McTaggart’s 1920s Canadian journey, he wakes in his new home and begins his first full day of farm work in rural Ontario.

In this fourth part of the Neil McTaggart historical  series, 18-year-old Neil wakes in his small back room on his uncle’s Ontario farm in the 1920s. Holding the stone his mother gave him, he faces the uncertainty of a new life. As the household stirs, Neil shares his first breakfast with his aunt, uncle, and cousins, before being introduced to the daily routine of Canadian farm life — feeding chickens, hauling water, and checking the fences.
