みんなが住んでるところって、まだマスクしてる？もうしてない？日本はまだ、ほぼ全員（ぜんいん）がマスクしてるんだよね。コロナの前はマスクっていったらもうほぼ白で、お医者さんとかは水色のマスクをしてるイメージだったんだけど、もうマスクはファッションの一部になってるのね。で、ピンク、ベージュ、青、カーキとかいろいろな色があるの。その中から服に合うマスクを選（えら）んだりするよ。私もピンクとラベンダーと白を持ってるよ。

Does everyone still wear masks where they live? Don't they already? In Japan, almost everyone still wears masks. Before Corona, masks were mostly white, and doctors wore light blue masks, but now masks have become a part of fashion. There are many colors to choose from, such as pink, beige, blue, and khaki. I choose a mask that goes with my outfit. I have a pink one, a lavender one, and a white one.


日本に来たことがある人は知ってると思うけど、日本ってマスクをするのに全然（ぜんぜん）抵抗（ていこう）がないだんよね。だから、コロナ前でもマスクしてる人は普通（ふつう）にたくさんいたの。それは、風邪をひいたからマスクをしてるんじゃなくて、風邪を引かないように予防（よぼう）してる人もいるし、花粉症（かふんしょう）対策（たいさく）でマスクしている人もいるよ。私も友だちと約束（やくそく）がある日とか大事（だいじ）なイベントがある一週間くらい前からはマスクしてたよ。

As those who have been to Japan know, there is no resistance to wearing masks in Japan. That's why there were many people wearing masks even in front of Corona. Some people wear masks not because they have caught a cold, but as a preventive measure against catching a cold, and some wear masks to prevent hay fever. I used to wear a mask about a week before an important event or an appointment with a friend.


あとあと、日本って花粉症の人が多いじゃん？日本人の4人に1人は花粉症らしんだけど、花粉症って鼻水でるしくしゃみでるし・・・って感じでコロナだと間違われたりするんだよね。だから、鼻水もくしゃみも我慢できない！でも私はコロナじゃない！って人のために、マスクに「花粉症です」って押すスタンプも売ってるよ。でも実際にスタンプをしてる人は見たことないから、日本に来たときに探してみてね～。

Also, there are many hay fever sufferers in Japan, right? One out of four Japanese people suffer from hay fever, but hay fever is often mistaken for corona because of the runny nose and sneezing. So I can't stand the sniffles and sneezes! But I don't have corona! For those who can't stand the sneezing and sniffling, there are stamps that say "I have hay fever" on their masks. But I've never seen anyone actually wearing one, so look for one when you come to Japan!

Ep.8 マスクとファッション (Masks & Fashion)

Mona and I discuss an enigmatic concept known as the American Dream. What does it mean and what doesn't it mean? How do Americans and non-Americans view it differently? In our conversation, we attempt to tease out some answers.

(By the way, my apologies for the poor sound quality in this episode. I'll certainly do my best to fix it for the next episode!)

Мы говорим о текстовых сообщениях США!

In America, texting is a primary form of communication for personal and professional relationships. People text each other for everything, from making plans to catching up on the latest news. 

В Америке текстовые сообщения являются основной формой общения в личных и профессиональных отношениях. Люди пишут друг другу сообщения обо всем, от составления планов до получения последних новостей.

中文：撒母耳说：“耶和华喜悦燔祭和平安祭，岂如喜悦人听从他的话呢？听命胜于献祭；顺从胜于公羊的脂油。”

Sāmǔ'ěr shuō: “Yēhéhuá xǐyuè fánjì hé píng'ān jì, qǐ rú xǐyuè rén tīngcóng tā de huà ne? Tīngmìng shèng yú xiànjì; shùncóng shèng yú gōngyáng de zhīyóu.”

사무엘이 말하되 “여호와께서 번제와 다른 제사를 그분의 말씀을 순종하는 것만큼 기뻐하시겠습니까? 순종이 제사보다 낫고, 듣는 것이 숫양의 기름보다 낫습니다.”


But Samuel replied: “Does the LORD delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as much as in obeying the LORD? To obey is better than sacrifice, and to heed is better than the fat of rams.
