OET Speaking Roleplay Practice: Episode 1 – Heart Attack Recovery Consultation

In this episode, my dad and I recall some of our favorite memories as sports fans.

If you’re a sports fan yourself, that’s great, but even if you’re not, I think you’ll benefit from listening to this one, as many English idioms and other vocabulary were born out of the world of sports.

Otherwise, listening to this episode should give you a sense of what being a sports fan in America is like, because it’s unique compared to sporting culture in most other countries.

#474 N3 漢字　余(ヨ、あまる)について！

こんにちは！Atsushiです。
92.93と食べ物シリーズなので、続けます。

今回は、おにぎり、です。
みなさんはおにぎりは知っていますか？
食べたことがありますか？

日本の食文化として、日本人にはとても馴染み深い食べ物です。日本のコンビニがある国では、見たことがある人もいるかもしれませんね。

おにぎりは日本が誇るソウルフードですね。お米と塩、海苔はほぼ共通の食材で、具を変えることでバリエーションは本当にたくさんあります。持ち運びにも優れているので、かなり昔から日本の食文化に根付いてきました。

歴史は、日本でいう弥生時代のころからもち米を使っておにぎりのようなものを作っていたところから始まります。日本の昔話にもよく出てきます。

　おにぎりはいろんな形があります。
三角型、丸型、円盤型、俵型があります。
また、最近ではにぎらないおにぎり「おにぎらず」というのもあります。

　おにぎりの食材もいろんな種類があります。
昆布、鮭、梅干、鰹かつお、シーチキンマヨネーズ、エビマヨネーズ、明太子、たらこ、高菜、いくら
などがあります。

　今は他にはわかめを混ぜたものだったり、オムライスをおにぎりにしたものだったり、いろんな種類があります。

　私は、明太子が好きです。それから、昆布も好きですね。
ネットで調べたら、海外の人はシーチキンマヨネーズが好きと書いてましたが、みなさんはどうですか？よかったら、ぜひ、オンラインレッスンでお話しましょう！

ということで、今回はおにぎりについて、話しました。
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！
