Script

おはようございます。日本語だんだんポットキャストのゆかりです。

今週(こんしゅう)は花の話(はなし)をします。🌸

花‥さくらや、マーガレット、チューリップなどの
「はな」のことです。

顔の真ん中(まんなか)にある、
「鼻(はな)」ではありませんよ。👃

では、花の話にもどります。

日本の花といえば、そう、桜(さくら)ですね。
私も桜の花がだいすきです。

本当に、うつくしいと思います。

でも、まって下さい！
桜もきれいなんですが、
日本では梅(うめ)の花も
楽しむことができます。

台湾(たいわん)や、韓国(かんこく)、
中国(ちゅうごく)でも、梅がきれいですね。

毎年(まいとし)、
3月の中旬(ちゅうじゅん)から、
4月頃(しがつごろ)に見ることができます。

今年(ことし)の冬(ふゆ)はあたたかいため、
いつもより少し、早いみたいです。

いま、3月になったばかりですが、
一番(いちばん)きれいに見ることができます。

これを「見頃(みごろ)」といいます。

「いま、京都(きょうと)では、

梅が見頃です。」

といいます。

では、桜の見頃はいつでしょうか？

つづきます。

今日も最後まで聞いてくれて、だんだんです。

また、明日！

Episode 1: Родина і дім Олексія

I love autumn in Korea, and it’s one of my favorite seasons because it’s perfect for taking walks and reading books. With the crisp air, colorful leaves, and even important events like the Korean University Entrance Exam, autumn in Korea is full of charm. Let’s talk about all the things that make autumn so memorable!

저는 한국의 가을을 참 좋아하는데요, 제가 좋아하는 산책과 책을 읽기에 정말 좋은 계절이기 때문이에요. 선선한 공기와 알록달록한 단풍, 그리고 수능 같은 중요한 행사까지 있는 한국의 가을에 대해 이야기해 보려고 해요.

When we talk about "screen time," we're often thinking about the effect that time spent on devices has on young people.

But what about the effect that those screens have on our eyes?

Whether you're using Instagram or Microsoft Excel, experts say that spending a lot of time looking at a screen isn't good for you.

But if you have to use a computer for work, what can you do to stay healthy?

Many eye experts say you should follow the "20-20-20 rule." This means taking a 20-second break every 20 minutes to look at something about 20 feet away — that's about 6 meters.

This gives your eyes a break and makes them change their focus from the screen that's near to you, to something that's farther away.

Make sure the screen is the right brightness, too. A screen that's too bright or too dark will make you strain your eyes. But your device can help you with this.

The idea is to reduce the amount of blue light that your eyes are getting, something that "night mode" on your device does. And some companies now sell blue light glasses that can help.

Sitting the right distance from the screen is also a good idea: at least 50 centimeters away is often given as a suggestion.

If you find you're moving close to the screen and straining your eyes to see, you could try making the fonts on your screen larger.

And don't forget to blink! Blinking stops your eyes from getting dry and it can also help to reduce eye strain.
