おはようございます。日本語だんだんポットキャストのゆかりです。

きのうは、コンビニの袋(ふくろ)の話をしました。

袋が有料(ゆうりょう)なのは、コンビニだけではありません。
スーパーやデパートでも、有料です。

でも、日本はトイレは無料ですね。

無料(むりょう)‥つまり、お金をはらわくていいです。
０円です！

トイレが無料なのはうれしいです。

そういえば、コンビニにもトイレがあります。

コンビニで、トイレに行きたいときは、

"トイレをかりてもいいですか？"

とききます。

"すみません、トイレをかりてもいいですか？"

"はい、どうぞ。"

といいます。

トイレをかりてもいいですか？のほかには、

"トイレをつかってもいいですか？"

"トイレをかしてください"

といいます。

「トイレに行ってもいいですか？」
は言いません。

これは、学校で先生に
「トイレにいってもいいですか？」と、

ききますね。

私はコンビニでトイレをかりるとき、
お水やガムなど、何かを買うことにしています。

もちろん、買わなくても大丈夫です。

私の気持ちです。

では、今日も最後まで聞いてくれて、だんだん、です。

また明日！

Cet épisode devait porter uniquement sur le parc de la tête d'or lyonnais et les bâtiments qui l'entourent... C'était sans compter notre amour pour les discussions philosophiques ;)

Dialogue Reading: 
👮🏻Officer: License and registration, please.
🙎🏼‍♂️Driver: Here’s my license. May I get my registration out of the glove compartment?
👮🏻Officer: Yes. Do you know why I pulled you over?
🙎🏼‍♂️Driver: No, I don’t.
👮🏻Officer: You were going 70 miles an hour, Mr. Lee.
🙎🏼‍♂️Driver: I thought I was going the speed limit, ma’am.
👮🏻Officer: Do you know what the speed limit is here?
🙎🏼‍♂️Driver: I believe it is 65 miles per hour. That is the last sign I saw.
👮🏻Officer: A road crew is painting the lines today. The posted speed limit in the construction zone is 50 miles per hour.
🙎🏼‍♂️Driver: I understand, officer.
👮🏻Officer: Are you aware that the fine for speeding in a construction zone is doubled?
🙎🏼‍♂️Driver: No, I was not aware of that.
👮🏻Officer: Road signs are posted for your family’s safety. Is everyone buckled up back there?
🙎🏼‍♂️Driver: Yes, they are wearing seat belts. I’m sorry they are upset. I have never been pulled over before.
👮🏻Officer: Good. I’m going to write you a ticket for going 10 miles over the speed limit today. Next time you won’t get off so easy. Is that clear, Mr. Lee?
🙎🏼‍♂️Driver: Yes, ma’am.
