Welcome back to another episode of Streetwise English. I'm your host, Carl. Today I want to talk to you about a new sport. This sport is growing, and it is very similar to golf. However, this is disc golf. So disc golf is like golf, except for you use a disc and instead of holes there are baskets and you will see the baskets with these chains hanging down and with a kind of a bucket thing.

And you throw the disc or the Frisbee into the chains. And then that counts  like putting the ball into a hole in golf. So the sport is great because there are a lot of free courses that you can play disc golf or Frisbee golf in. And just like golf, there are usually nine or 18 holes or baskets.

And the goal is to throw the disc, the Frisbee into the basket with as few throws as possible. So, for example, like in golf, you might have a course that is like par, par three. It takes three shots to get it into the hole So the same thing with disc golf, you have a par three course or par four.

So you're trying to get the disc into the basket in three throws or less. Now, some of the challenges with the disc golf courses are trees or obstacles. So sometimes the course will have a tree in the way and you'll have to throw the disc in a way that the disc curves around and goes around the tree so that you can get a clear look at the basket. Another interesting thing is that the discs are made of plastic according to Wikipedia.

Here it says that the discs are made of polypropylene, which is a thermoplastic polymer resin. So it's a very dense plastic And they're smaller in size than a Frisbee that you think of. Like from when I was a kid, I remember the Frisbees were quite large. But these Frisbees are small and there are different Frisbees for different throws.

SWE12 What the heck is Disc Golf?



こんにちは！Atsushiです。
今回も慣用句シリーズでいきます。

体に関わる慣用句はかなり多いです！
今日は首くびの慣用句でいきます。

世界でも同じかもしれないですが、日本では首は仕事に関わる表現が多いように思います。生活が苦しい時の表現などにも使われるので、首は体の中でも頭と胴体をつないでいるように、大切な部分のようなイメージが昔からあるのかもしれません。

ということでいきましょう！



① 首が繋がる  (くびがつながる)
ギリギリのところで解雇をまぬがれる、のがれる、という意味です。
例えば、
ー本当にやばいと思ったけど、なんとか首がつながった。
などと使います。

② 首が回らない (くびがまわらない)
この意味は、
借金など支払わないといけないお金が多くてどうしようもないことを意味します。
ーどうにもこうにも首が回らない、
などと使います。

③ 首を突っ込む (くびをつっこむ)
この意味は、
関心や興味をもつこと、また、何かに深入りすることを意味します。深入りすることについてはネガティブな、良くないイメージで使います。
例えば、
ー彼はなんにでも首を突っ込みたがる。
ーずいぶん、ややこしいことに首を突っ込んでるなぁ。
とか使います。


どれもポジティブな表現ではなかったですね。
他の首に関する慣用句も少しネガティブな表現が多い感じでした。

ということで、いかがだったでしょうか。
今回の表現も、テレビなどで聞くことの方が多いかもしれません。刑事物のドラマとかによく出てきそうですね。
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！

I'm guessing this is where we get the name "maple tree" from.
