こんにちは！Atsushiです。
今日の天気は朝から変な天気です。
雨が降ったり、止んだりしています。
晴れてるのに雨が降ったりしています。
気温は17℃です。


さて、今回も慣用句シリーズでいきます。
今日も3つ話します。

① 馬の耳に念仏ーうまのみみにねんぶつ
これは、
馬に念仏を聞かせても意味がないことから、何を言っても全く効き目たないことのたとえ。

例えば、
あの人には何を言っても馬の耳に念仏です。
とか言います。


② 寝耳に水ーねみみにみず
これほ、
不意の出来事やニュースなどに驚くこと。
例えば、
ーあのニュースは本当に寝耳に水だった。
ー寝耳に水だったけど、彼女、結婚するらしいよ。
などと言います。

③ 小耳に挟むーこみみにはさむ
これは、
聞くつもりはなかったけど、ちらっと聞いた。そんな時に使います。

例えば、
ちょっと小耳に挟んだけど、彼と付き合ってるの？とか、
小耳に挟んだけど、株、上がるらしいよ。とかに
使います。

良いことにも、良くないことにも両方使えますね。
ちょっとコソコソ話す時に使います。


はい、ということでいかがだったでしょうか。
耳の慣用句だったので、情報や噂などに関するものもの多いと思います。

今回も最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！
ではまた！
