みんなは視力（しりょく）どれぐらいある？私は目が悪くて、コンタクトをつけてるんだけど、パソコンするときは目が乾燥（かんそう）しちゃうから、めがね使ってるんだよね。でも、ずっとパソコンしてるとほんと目がヤバくなってくるから、この前ブルーライトカットのめがねを買いに行ったの。

How good is your eyesight? I have bad eyesight, so I wear contacts, but when I use the computer, my eyes get dry, so I use glasses. But my eyes get really bad when I'm on the computer all the time, so the other day I went to buy a pair of blue light-cut glasses.

日本のめがねの値段（ねだん）はピンキリなんだけど、安いのは10000円くらいから買えるよ。有名なお店は「J!NS」とか「Zoff」とか「めがね市場」かなぁ。私は今までずっと「J!NS」で買ってたんだけど、かわいいフレームがあったから今回は「めがね市場」で買ったんだよね。

Prices for glasses in Japan vary widely, but you can buy inexpensive ones for as little as 10,000 yen. I think the most famous stores are "J!NS", "Zoff", and "Megane Ichiba". I used to buy my glasses at "J!NS", but this time I bought them at "Megane Ichiba" because they had cute frames.

レンズのオプションもいろいろあって、ブルーライトカットはもちろんなんだけど、スマホを見るとき目を楽にするレンズとか、抗菌（こうきん）レンズとかいろいろあってびっくりしちゃった。

I was surprised at the variety of lens options available, including blue-light-cut lenses, lenses that make it easier for me to look at my phone, and antibacterial lenses.

視力検査（けんさ）もめがね屋さんでするんだけど、右目も左目も「0.05」ずつしかなかったからショックだった…。あと、少し右目が乱視（らんし）って言われたから、レンズは特注（とくちゅう）になって1週間後に出来上がって取りに行ったよ。もし日本でめがねを作ることがあったら、時間に余裕をもってつくったほうがいいよ。

I also had my eyesight tested at the optometrist's, and I was shocked to see that it was only 0.05 vision each for my right and left eyes.... I was also told that I had a little astigmatism in my right eye, so the lenses were special ordered and I went to pick them up a week after they were made.If you have to get glasses made in Japan, you should make them well in advance.

ちなみに、この前、子供の視力が悪くなってるってテレビで言ってたんだよね。1.0未満の子どもは高校生で63％らしいよ。たしかに私も高校生のときからコンタクトしてるなぁって思った。いつかレーシックもしてみたい！

By the way, I heard on TV the other day that children's eyesight is getting worse: 63% of high school students have less than 1.0 vision. I have been wearing contacts since I was in high school. I'd like to have LASIK someday!

C(40) Verbs Set : Hope Hover Howl Hug Hunt

大家好，我是鸿琳老师，欢迎来到我的汉字频道。

这是我的第一条推送。今天我要和你们分享的是，人，中国人的人，人们的人。

人，是一个象形字，也就是说，这个字像一幅画，把人长什么样，用汉字画了出来。最开始的“人“字，是一个把身体转向他的右边站着的人，他的身体就是我们写”人“字时，右边的那一撇，然后这个人往前伸出了一只他的手，也就是我们”人“字的左边一撇。后来，这个人的手伸得越来越长，那两撇，已经像人的两条腿了。也就是我们现在写的“人“字啦。

那含有“人“字的词语还是很多的，今天给大家分享一个词语，“人物”，可以指在一个领域，在一个地方很重要的人。比如，有一个人在你的学校很有名，她可能是篮球队啦啦队队长，她可能学习成绩特别好，永远是学校第一，那你就可以说，“啊，她在我们学校是个人物，几乎每个人都知道她！”
这就是“人物”的一个用法，指在一个地方一个领域都很重要很有名的人。

那关于“人“，大家还能想到什么词语呢？
