In our second episode, we discuss the communication between different cultures. One way of distinguishing them is based on how specific the context is. But what do "high" and "low" really mean?

JAMES:  Good morning, Professor Austin, how are you doing?
PROFESSOR AUSTIN: Good morning, James. I am doing well. And you?
JAMES: I’m great, thank you. This is my friend Emma. She 
is thinking about applying to this college. She has a 
few questions. Would you mind telling us about the 
process, please?
PROFESSOR AUSTIN: Hello, Emma! It’s a pleasure to meet you. I’m more 
than happy to speak with you. Please stop by my office 
next week.
EMMA: It’s a pleasure to meet you, professor. Thank you so 
much for helping us.
PROFESSOR AUSTIN: Don’t mention it. Hopefully, I will be able to answer 
your questions!

LANGUAGE NOTES
• The greetings good morning/good afternoon/good evening are used at different times 
of the day to greet people. “Good evening” is often used after 6 p.m. or generally when 
the sun has set.
• “Good night” is not a greeting: It is used when leaving a place or group of people. 
Thank you and good night!/Good night, and see you tomorrow.
• When people meet in the United States, it is customary for them to shake hands. A 
handshake should be firm and usually lasts for about two to three seconds — which 
allows enough time to say “Nice to meet you.”
• “Don’t mention it” is another way of saying “You’re welcome.” The phrase “You are 
welcome” is more formal. However, responses such as Don’t mention it./No problem./
Happy to help. are informal ways of responding to a thank you.

こんにちは！
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。

北海道旅行の続きです。
2日目の話です。

スターバックスを出てからの続きですね。
そのあと、六花亭という菓子店に行きました。

六花亭、ろっかてい、というのは、北海道の有名な菓子店の１つです。そして、この帯広の店は本店です。

1番はじめにできた店、ということですね。

1933年に開業したそうなので、今年2023年でちょうど90年です。こういう古くからある店を老舗、しにせ、ともいいます。

このお店でいくつかお菓子を買いました。


この六花亭で1番人気なのは、北海道土産、みやげ、としては定番、ていばん、のお菓子は、マルセイバターサンドというお菓子です。

マルセイバターサンドは、ホワイトチョコレートとレーズン、北海道産生乳１００％のバターをあわせたクリームをビスケットでサンドしたお菓子です。

マルセイバターとは、北海道、十勝、とかち、で最初に作られたバター「マルセイバタ」の名前です。

これが本当に美味しいです！
個人的には北海道のお菓子で1番好きかもしれません。

ということで、今回は旅行の途中に行った、六花亭、の話をしました。

この旅行の続きは、また月のPodcastで話します。

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！
