こんばんは！Atsushiです。
今回も慣用句シリーズでいきますね！

今回は腰を使った慣用句です！


① 腰があるーコシがある 
うどんなどの歯ざわりがしっかりしている、という意味です。
ーこのうどんはコシがある。
などと言います。


② 腰がひけるーこしががひける
自信がなくて、少しやりたくない気持ちを表します。
ーバンジージャンプをするのは腰がひける。
などと言います。

③ 腰が低いーこしがひくい
 ひとに対して、自分をさげること
ー彼はとても腰が低い。
などと言います。


どうですか？
腰を使った表現もたくさんありますね。
おもしろいですね。

この3つはどれも日常生活でもよく使いますね。
1つめのコシがあるは、麺類、ヌードルに対して使いますので、日本に来たときは、うどんを食べてコシの強さを確かめてみてください！

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！
