한국의 편의점 문화

한국에는 길을 걷다 보면 편의점을 자주 볼 수 있습니다. 서울처럼 큰 도시뿐만 아니라, 작은 마을에도 편의점이 있습니다. 편의점은 하루 24시간, 일주일 7일 동안 계속 열려 있어서 언제든지 이용할 수 있습니다.

편의점에서는 여러 가지 물건을 팔고 있습니다. 물, 음료수, 과자, 라면, 도시락, 과일 등 간단한 음식은 물론이고, 치약, 비누, 휴지 같은 생활용품도 있습니다. 또, 편의점에서는 휴대폰 충전기, 양말, 우산도 살 수 있어서 갑자기 필요한 물건이 생겼을 때 편리합니다.

최근에는 편의점에서 간단한 식사를 하는 사람들도 많아졌습니다. 도시락이나 컵라면을 사서 편의점 안에서 먹을 수 있습니다. 대부분의 편의점에는 전자레인지와 뜨거운 물이 있어서 바로 먹을 수 있게 도와줍니다. 어떤 편의점은 작은 테이블과 의자도 있어서 앉아서 먹을 수도 있습니다.

편의점에서는 음식이나 물건을 사는 것 외에도 다양한 서비스를 이용할 수 있습니다. 예를 들어, 편의점에서 택배를 보낼 수 있고, 공과금을 낼 수도 있습니다. 또, 복사기나 팩스를 사용할 수 있는 곳도 있습니다. 요즘은 편의점 안에 현금자동입출금기(ATM)도 있어서 돈을 찾거나 보낼 수도 있습니다.

한국의 편의점은 단순히 물건을 사는 곳이 아니라, 바쁜 현대인의 생활을 도와주는 공간입니다. 특히 혼자 사는 사람이나 늦게까지 일하는 사람들에게 편의점은 매우 편리한 장소입니다.

이렇게 편의점은 한국 사람들의 생활 속에서 중요한 역할을 하고 있으며, 앞으로도 더 다양한 기능을 가진 공간으로 발전할 것입니다.

『羅生門』 第六話　芥川龍之介・著
'Rashomon' #6
Written by Ryunosuke Akutagawa

どうにもならないことを、どうにかするためには、
手段を選んでいるいとまはない。
選んでいれば、築土の下か、道ばたの土の上で、
飢死にをするばかりである。
そうして、この門の上へ持ってきて、
犬のように棄てられてしまうばかりである。
選ばないとすれば――下人の考えは、
何度も同じ道を低徊した揚句に、やっとこの局所へ
逢着した。しかしこの「すれば」は、
いつまでたっても、結局「すれば」であった。
下人は、手段を選ばないということを肯定しながらも、
この「すれば」のかたをつけるために、
当然、その後に来るべき
「盗人になるよりほかに仕方がない」
ということを、積極的に肯定するだけの、
勇気が出ずにいたのである。

สุขสันต์วันสงกรานต์!! (sùk-săn-wan-sŏng-graan) Happy Songkran, everyone!! Welcome back to Thai T-la-nid podcast. This is episode no.7! 

Songkran (is pronounced as sǒng-graan) is Thai new year, also known as a water festival. It’s a very big holiday in Thailand. We usually have 3-5 days off. People go back to their hometown, visit family and friends and celebrate Songkran together.

So, this is the time of joy and all good things. Let’s see how we celebrate and learn some Thai phrases.

1. สุขสันต์วันสงกรานต์! (sùk-săn-wan-sŏng-graan) = Happy Songkran Day!

สุขสันต์ (sùk-săn) = happy 
วัน (wan) = day
สงกรานต์ (sŏng-graan) = Songkran


2. เล่นน้ำ (lên-náam) = to play in the water
เล่น (lên) = to play
น้ำ (náam) = water

Songkran is during the middle of April which is very hot in Thailand. Playing in the water or joining in the water fight keeps us cool. 
 

ไปเล่นน้ำกัน (bpai lên náam gan) = Let’s play in the water/ join in water fight.


3. ประแป้ง (bprà-bpâeng) = to pat check with powder

แป้ง (bpâeng) = powder/flour 

ขอประแป้งหน่อยได้ไหมครับ/คะ (kǒr bprà-bpâeng nòi dâaa mái kráp/ká) = Can I pat your cheeks with powder?


4. ฉลองกับครอบครัว (chà-lŏng gàp krôp-kruua) = to celebrate with family

ฉลอง (chà-lŏng) = to celebrate 
กับ (gàp) = with
ครอบครัว (krôp-kruua) = family 


5. สงกรานต์สนุกมาก (sŏng-graan sà-nùk mâak) = Songkran is ver fun.

สนุก (sà-nùk) = fun
มาก (mâak) = very


Now, let’s practice again.

1. สุขสันต์วันสงกรานต์! (sùk-săn-wan-sŏng-graan) = Happy Songkran Day!

2. ไปเล่นน้ำกัน (bpai lên náam gan) = Let’s play in the water/water fight.
