☆Words☆
うなぎ：eel

土用（どよう）："土用（どよう）" strictly refers to the 18 days before the first days of spring, summer, fall, and winter (on the lunar calendar). Today, however, "土用（どよう）" generally refers only to the 18 days before the first day of fall.

丑（うし）の日（ひ）：The day called "丑（うし）の日（ひ）", which is translated literally as the day of the Ox, can be seen in the calendar that follows the twelve signs of the Chinese zodiac. The twelve signs were introduced to Japan from ancient China. The twelve signs were allocated one by one to the days on the calendar. "丑（うし）の日（ひ）" is the day to which the second sign of the twelve signs is allocated. 

立春（りっしゅん）：the first day of spring
立夏（りっか）：the first day of summer
立秋（りっしゅう）：the first day of fall
立冬（りっとう）：the first day of winter

Simple Japanese Listening with Meg（めぐ）Smile

#42 うなぎの日？ / Eel Day? // N4 Level /Japanese listening

Mum: Hi remember me?

Dad: Oh yeah, aren’t you wait, aren’t you the mother of my children?

Mum: Yes, how are you doing? Haven’t seen you in a while! 

Dad: Now I’ve put them to bed, I’m great! 

Mum: Today was exhausting!

Dad: Tell me about it. What time were you up?

Mum: About 4:30. I need that early morning time to get myself together and actually do some work before it all goes to hell.

Dad: Every night, I tell myself I’m going to do that, and every morning when the alarm goes off, I tell myself I need just a few more minutes of sleep.

Mum: You’re a night owl, I’m an early bird, it’s just how we are.

Dad: But I want to be an early bird and watch TV at night instead of doing the work I need to do. By the way, thanks for helping me out today. I owe you. Tomorrow, they’re mine.

Mum: It’s fine. Apart from when Justin dropped his yogurt, I think it went pretty well.

Dad: Oh, I don’t think anyone even noticed the screaming child while I was presenting – and if they did, they probably didn’t want to say anything in case they have their own children screaming on call in the future.

Mum: I don’t think I’m convinced about this hybrid working situation. Don’t get me wrong, I love not having to commute every day. With my job, that’s easily two hours of the day I get back. But organizing myself and kids and work?

Dad: Yeah, it’s a challenge. Some days I feel on top of it all, but there are days when I feel like I’m a terrible employee, a terrible father and a terrible husband.

Mum: (with joking intonation) Oh honey, don’t think like that. Trust me, you’re a terrible husband EVERY day, not just some days.

Dad: Just for that, I’m not going to tell you where Becky hid the chocolate Nutella.

Mum: I’ll just go and buy more.

Dad: or the car keys

Mum: Fine. You’re a wonderful husband on most days.

Dad: I’ll be wonderful tomorrow while you’re in your meeting. What are you doing again?

Mum: I’m just leading the meeting, but the CEO is going to be there.

Today we're talking about the noun "outset" which is a formal way to talk about the beginning of something. I hope you find it useful!

I knew this from the beginning!


こんにちは！Atsushiです。
今回も和食文化について、話します。
今日は日本の魚の料理は寿司や刺身が人気がありますが、焼き魚もとてもおいしいです。僕は今北海道に住んでいるので、ほっけ、鮭などを食べる機会が増えました。

ということで、焼き魚の食べ方がありますので、簡単に話しますね！

焼 き 魚 は 、 頭 か ら 尾尻の方へ 、 上 の身か ら 下 へ 食 べ ます。

上 の 身 を 食 べ た 後にひ っ く り返して食べるのはマナーとして良くない、とされています。 

上の身を食べた後、 魚の頭を押さえて 魚の身と骨の間に箸を入れ、 骨をはがします。その骨は、 器の向こう側に置きます。

と言いましたが、この手順で食べている人はどれぐらいいるかは分かりません。あんまり人と一緒に焼き魚を1尾ずつ食べる機会はないですね。僕自身も、日本人として、この手順を守りながら食べるようにします！

日本に旅行へ来た時に、焼き魚を食べる時があれば、ぜひこのPodcastを聴きながら食べてみてください！

ということで、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！
