「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."

Young people in South Korea are turning their backs on marriage, according to a government report.

A survey by Statistics Korea of Koreans aged between 19 and 34 found that just 36% have a positive opinion of marriage.

That's down from 56% in 2012.

The report found that many young Koreans feel they do not have enough money for marriage at a time when the cost of living is high.

Others said they don't think that marriage is necessary.

The report also found that only 28% of the women surveyed have a positive opinion of marriage.

This may be because women are choosing to put their jobs first — before marrying and starting a family.

Earlier in the year, Statistics Korea said that the number of marriages in the country in 2022 was the lowest ever recorded.

There were 192,000 marriages in 2022. The number of marriages recorded has now decreased in each of the last 11 years.

The government is worried, and has spent years trying to encourage young people to marry and have children, since the country's birth rate is also falling.

But more Koreans are happy to stay single. There is even a word for people who choose not to marry: bihon.

And instead of encouraging Koreans to marry, some people are asking the government to do more for single people who have chosen to live on their own.

El Barrio Chino de Ciudad de México es un pequeño barrio dentro de San Juan Moyotlan, a su vez un barrio del Centro Histórico. Algunas de sus calles son el escenario de las celebraciones del Año Nuevo Chino. Pero durante todo el año se puede sentir la esencia y el sabor de China, su gente y sus tradiciones.

El pueblo chino tiene una larga historia de inmigración a México. Algunos vinieron con el famoso comercio del Galeón de Manila, que conectó Acapulco con las Islas Filipinas durante unos 250 años. Posteriormente se dieron importantes oleadas de inmigración china que trajeron trabajadores y mano de obra tanto de Estados Unidos como de la China continental.

Parte de la población china de Ciudad de México llegó como resultado de los disturbios en los estados del norte, como Sonora y Sinaloa, donde se les había permitido vivir y trabajar. En la década de 1930, las calles de Dolores y Luis Moya, en el centro de la ciudad, estaban repletas de lavanderías atendidas por familias chinas a las que, debido al racismo, no se les permitía mezclarse con los locales.

Sin embargo, los chinos prosperaron regentando “cafés chinos”, todavía conocidos por su “café con leche”, galletas de la suerte y bollos choux. Todavía hoy podemos verlos casi en cualquier lugar de la ciudad, pero la mayoría de estos cafés no son atendidos por personal de ascendencia china en la actualidad.

El café con leche chino, tradicionalmente se sirve sin intercambiar muchas palabras. Se vierte de una jarra de aluminio a un vaso octogonal, a menudo desde una altura considerable. El camarero espera a que el cliente indique cuánto café desea y el resto del vaso se llena con leche entera caliente. Todo el proceso es como un ritual.
