日本語では感情や他の物の状態を表すときによくオノマトペを使います。日本のアニメやドラマを観たことがあれば、一度は聞いたことがあると思います。

Japanese often use these Onomatopoeia to describe feeling and other stuffs. You've heard these once or twice if you watched Japanese Anime or TV series.

HERRAMIENTAS ACTUALES Y PLATAFORMAS COMO ITALKI EN LOS IDIOMAS

Do you find it harder to be nice and cooperative when you're tired? You're not alone — and there's actually science behind that feeling.

Researchers in Italy looked at how being tired affected people's brains and the decisions they made.

They looked at a total of almost 450 people. The participants all started by doing a set of similar tasks for about 45 minutes — but for one group, the tasks were made much more difficult to make the participants mentally tired.

For example, the mentally tired group was given more difficult quiz questions to answer. And while everyone watched funny videos, the mentally tired group was told to try not to smile or laugh.

Participants then played several economic games that asked them to make decisions that would give different benefits to themselves and others, like deciding how to share points in a group.

It was found that mentally tired participants were much less likely to make cooperative decisions in the games. They were also more likely to choose "antisocial" and "spiteful" options — where they could, say, choose to use some of their own points to reduce someone else's points instead of using them to help themselves or the group.

Why did this happen?

Among the mentally tired group, the researchers found a much stronger increase in "slow-wave" activity in parts of the brain used for things like planning, paying attention, controlling emotions and understanding others. These "slow waves" are similar to the ones seen in our brains when we sleep.

The researchers said this increase in slow waves may explain tired participants' less cooperative decisions.

So when you're tired after a long day, you may be less nice because the parts of your brain you need to help you cooperate are actually going to sleep!

こんばんは！
Japanese daily life podcast のAtsushiです。
このPodcastは、日本語を勉強しているみなさんに向けたPodcastです。

今日は、文法シリーズはちょっとお休みします。
今日はぼくの話をします。

ぼくは今、北海道に住んでいます。
そして、10月からは妻と2人で海外に行く予定です。

その準備のために、1度大阪の実家へ引越をします。
引越、というよりも家具や荷物をほとんどなくして大阪へ行きます。

今は、北海道でいらないものといるものを分けています。
いらないものは、あげるか、売るかを決めます。
いるものは、ぼくの実家か、奥さんの実家に送ります。
ほとんどないんですが。少しだけ。

売るのは、リサイクルショップに持って行ったり、フリマアプリを使ったりしています。

あと3週間とちょっとでほとんどの持ち物を手放すので、大変です。ですが、はじめての感覚でちょっと気持ちいいです。


それから、ぼくの家ではネコを飼っています。
そのネコは先週、大阪の実家に連れて行きました。
はじめは少し落ち着かない感じでしたが、今はだいぶ落ち着いてきました。北海道の家にいた時と同じような感じで、よく寝てます。

という感じで、今月は引越の準備だったり、北海道を最後に満喫したりと忙しいです。

ですが、もちろん、いつも通りオンラインレッスンもしてます。

ぼくと話したいと思った方はぜひオンラインレッスン予約してくださいね！

お待ちしています！


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！
