「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."

Before the interview

In the days before your job interview, set aside time to do the following:

Understanding key information about the company you’re interviewing with can help you go into your interview with confidence. Using the company’s website, social media posts and recent press releases will provide a solid understanding of the company’s goals and how your background makes you a great fit.

Fare una ordinazione al ristorante

HOTEL RECEPTIONIST: Hi, there. How can I help you?
CLAIRE: Well, I’m in town visiting for a few days, and I 
need to get some things done while I’m here.
HOTEL RECEPTIONIST: Sure. What do you need?
CLAIRE: I need to get my hair cut. I also need to have my
new pants hemmed.
HOTEL RECEPTIONIST: OK. Here’s a map of the city. There’s a good hair 
salon here, which is just a block away. And there’s 
a tailor right here. Is there anything else?
CLAIRE: Yes. I’ll need to have my car serviced before my
long drive home!
HOTEL RECEPTIONIST: No problem. There’s a good mechanic a few 
blocks away.


LANGUAGE NOTES
• Hi, there. Notice the intonation in this greeting. It rises after “Hi” and falls after “there.”
• Sure is a friendly expression to mean “OK.”
• Get my hair cut / have my new pants hemmed / have my car serviced. Notice get/
have + object + participle. This structure is used to describe actions that someone else 
does for us. “Get” and “have” are interchangeable here.
• Is there anything else? here means “Do you need more information?”
• Before my long drive home! Notice the emphasis and intonation on “home.” The 
speaker wants to show humor here. If she doesn’t get her car checked, she might not get 
home! She wants to be friendly and light with the receptionist.
• No problem here means “Don’t worry.” Notice the stress on “No.” The receptionist 
laughs first, then puts emphasis on “No” by lengthening the word. This shows that she 
understands the car could break down if it doesn’t get serviced

南辕北辙[nán yuán běi zhé]

Я приближался к месту моего назначения. Вокруг меня, прижимаясь к самой дороге, зеленел лес, изредка уступая место полянам, поросшим жёлтой осокою. Солнце садилось уже который час, всё никак не могло сесть и висело низко над горизонтом. Машина катилась по узкой дороге, засыпанной хрустящим гравием. Крупные камни я пускал под колесо, и каждый раз в багажнике лязгали и громыхали пустые канистры.

Справа из леса вышли двое, ступили на обочину и остановились, глядя в мою сторону. Один из них поднял руку. Я сбросил газ, их рассматривая. Это были, как мне показалось, охотники, молодые люди, может быть, немного старше меня. Их лица понравились мне, и я остановился. Тот, что поднимал руку, просунул в машину смуглое горбоносое лицо и спросил, улыбаясь:

— Вы нас не подбросите до Соловца?

Второй, с рыжей бородой и без усов, тоже улыбался, выглядывая из-за его плеча. Положительно, это были приятные люди.
