Sunday Roast in Oxford (B1-B2)

こんにちは、Mikaです
このポッドキャストでは私の日々の出来事を通して、日本語をより身近に
楽しく感じてもらえたら嬉しいです。
短い間ですがリラックスした気分でどうぞお付き合いください。

9月に入り、日本はだいぶ秋らしくなってきました。
日本の秋の行事といえば "お月見" がありますが
みなさん、お月見を知っていますか？
これは中国から伝わったもので、美しい月を見ながらお団子のなどのお菓子を食べることです。
それだけではなく本来は秋にできた豊作物が無事に収穫できたことを感謝する行事です。
なんだかアメリカのハロウィンに似ていますね。
そして月の大きさが変わることは生物の誕生と死を想像することから
先祖への感謝を伝える意味も含まれています。

お月見の時に食べるものといえば月見団子が有名ですが
他にもお餅やおまんじゅうなど月のような丸い形のものを食べる習慣があります。
最近では玉子を満月に見立てた月見バーガーや月見うどんなども人気です。
日本人は丸い食べ物を満月に例えて食べることが好きですね ♪

みなさんも美味しい丸いものを食べながら
日本らしいお月見を楽しんでみてください。
そしてお月見についてもっと深く学びたい人は
是非私の日本の歴史のレッスンを予約してみてくださいね。

それでは今日も笑顔の多い一日を！またね～

Vol.7  日本の秋の文化 "お月見"  / Japanese autumn culture "otsukimi"

"فَن اللَامُبَالَاة" أُسْلُوب حَياة بِشَجِع عَلى التَرْكِيزْ على الأُمُور المُهِمِّة بِالحَيَاة وتَجَاهُل التَفَاصِيل اللي مَا بِتْضِيف قِيمِة حَقِيقِية.
هَادا الفن بْسَاعدك للتَخَلُّص مِن القَلَق والتَوَتُر النَاتِجْ عَن مُحَاوَلِة إِرْضَاء النَاس أو السَعِي بِإِتِجَاه الكَمَال.
بيعتمد فَن اللامبالاة على فِكْرِة إِنُّو تِقْبَل الحَيَاة بِكِلْشِي فِيهَا مِن تَحَدِيَات وصُعُوبَات والتَرْكِيز عَلَى الأشياء المُمْكِن تَغيِيرْهَا وتَحْسِينْهَا.
بْيُعْتَبَر هَادَا الفَن وَسِيلِة لتَقْوِيِة الصِحَة النَفْسِيِة مِن خِلَال تَقْلِيل الضُغُوطَات الإِجْتِمَاعِيِة والشَخْصِيِة.
كَمَان بِِشَجِع عَلَى فِهْم إِنُو السَعَادِة والرِضَا بيِجُوا مِن جُوَّا ومُو مِن المُحَاوَلَات المُسْتَمِرَة لِتَحْقِيق تَوَقُعَاتْ التَانِيِين.
بيسَاهِم بِبِنَاء شَخْصِيِة قَويِة ومُسْتَقِلِة وقَادْرَة إِنُو تَاخُد قَرَارَات صَحِيحَة.

"The Art of Indifference" is a lifestyle that encourages focus on the important things in life and ignoring the details that do not add real value.
This art helps you get rid of anxiety and stress caused by trying to satisfy people or seeking perfection.
The art of not giving a shit relies on the idea that you accept life with all its challenges and difficulties and focus on the things that can be changed and improved.
This art is considered a means to strengthen mental health by reducing social and personal stresses.
It also encourages the understanding that happiness and satisfaction come from within and not from constantly trying to meet other people's expectations.
It contributes to building a strong, independent personality capable of making sound decisions.
