こんにちは、さゆりです！👋春が近づいてきましたね。
今回のテーマは、日本の象徴「桜（さくら）」です。🌸
先日発表された2026年の開花予想の話や、「サクラ」という言葉の本当の意味（語源）、そしてお花見の歴史について話しました。
実は昔、日本人は桜ではなく「梅（うめ）」を見ていたのを知っていますか？
そして、現代の「花より団子」である、桜味のスイーツについても話しています。🍡


Hello everyone, I’m Sayuri!
Today's topic is "Sakura" (Cherry Blossoms). Spring is just around the corner! 🌸
In this episode, I talk about:
The 2026 Cherry Blossom Forecast: When will they bloom in Tokyo or Osaka?
The Etymology of "Sakura": Did you know it might mean "God's Seat"?
The History of Hanami: Why did it change from Plum blossoms (Ume) to Cherry blossoms?"
Hana yori Dango": A famous proverb and modern Sakura sweets.


大家好，我是Sayuri！春天快要到了。
這次的主題是日本的象徵「櫻花（Sakura）」🌸
在這一集中，我聊到了：
2026年櫻花開花預測： 東京和大阪什麼時候開花？
「Sakura」的語源： 其實這個詞可能有「稻田之神坐在這裡」的意思？
賞花的歷史： 為什麼以前的人是賞梅花而不是賞櫻花？
「花より団子（花不如糰子）」： 這句諺語的意思，還有現代春季限定的櫻花甜點。🍡


にほんごタイム🇯🇵Learn Japanese with Sayuri!
