はい、こんにちは。今回はポッドキャストの13回目です。まだ５月ですが、朝や昼の日差しが強くなってきました。手術の傷は塞がってきました。まだ運動はできません。午後にダンベルとスクワットをしてみたら、途中でお腹が痛くなってきたのでやめました。髪が伸びてきたのでそろそろ切りたいです。先週大学のクラスの申し込みを終わらせました。

Hello, this is episode 13 of season 2 of my podcast. It's only May, but the morning and afternoon sun is getting stronger. My surgical wounds have healed. I can't exercise yet. I tried to use some dumbbells and do some squats in the afternoon, but my stomach started hurting halfway through, so I had to stop. My hair is getting long and I want to get it cut soon. I finished registering for university classes last week.

今日は久しぶりに買い物に行きました。買い物といっても、オンラインで買おうと思っていた服を試着しに行っただけなので、実際に買い物をしたわけではありません。街には観光客や若い人がたくさんいて、平日なのにとても混んでいて驚きました。そういえば今日はゴールデンウィークでした。どこの店もセールやキャンペーンをしていました。買おうと思っていた服は写真のイメージと違ったので、他のにすることにしました。家に帰ってから、綿のパンツとTシャツをオンラインで買いました。

Today I went shopping for the first time in a while. I say shopping, but I just went to try on some clothes I was planning to buy online, so I didn't actually do any shopping. I was surprised to see so many tourists and young people in the city and it was very crowded even though it was a weekday. That reminds me, today was Golden Week. All the shops were having sales and promotions. The clothes I was going to buy were different from the image in the picture, so I decided to buy something else. When I got home I bought some cotton trousers and T-shirts online.

そういえば最近の授業で、日本語の「パンツ」のアクセントの違いについて話しました。日本語でパンツというと、ズボンと下着の二つの意味があります。私が今言っているのは、ズボンのほうのアクセントです。下着のアクセントは、パンツです。パンツ（上昇）とパンツ（下降）です。現代人が普段着ている服は西洋文化のものなので、日本語でもほとんどがカタカナです。それに合わせて、服の素材もカタカナで表現することが多いです。たとえば、「綿」や「麻」は、「コットン」や「リネン」と表記されていることがあります。どちらも同じ意味です。私は綿の服が好きです。
