A palatalized consonant is pronounced with the blade of the tongue pressed up against the hard palate. A palatalized consonant sounds like a consonant plus the [y] sound of “yes” pronounced at the exact same time. The letter ь ( мягкий знак ) indicates that the preceding consonant is palatalized.

In addition to ь, the vowel letters е, ё, и, ю, and я also indicate that the preceding 
consonant is palatalized.

「あやしい」とは本当かどうか疑わしいという意味です。
「聞いているだけで英語が話せるようになる」とか「これを食べるだけでやせる」という商品を見るたびに私は「あやしいな」と思います。

オンラインショップやレストランのレビューもあやしいなと感じることがあります。私はアマゾンで商品を買うときはなるべくレビューやコメントが多い商品を選びます。レビューがとてもいい商品でも、レビューの数が少ないものはあまり選ばないようにしています。

２週間前の雪が降るという天気予報を私はあやしいなと思っていました。「もう4月なのに今さら雪が降るわけがない」と思っていました。でも、たくさん雪が積もりました。

みなさんは、最近なにか「あやしいな」と感じたことはありますか？


あやしい：doubtful, suspect, fishy
疑わしい：うたがわしい　doughtful
やせる：lose weight
商品：しょうひん　product
レビュー：rating, review, 評価（ひょうか）
