Preparation for lessons

Dance before you get old

This May, I want to plant a seed in your brain. I will water this seed during the month of May. This seed is - TO WRITE - in English.

The thought I want to water, nourish and feed - for you, this month - is the idea that this month, this MAY - you START TO THINK about writing in ENGLISH. 

May this May be the month that you begin to write! That is my wish for you. 

Until next time! 

Hear and There

7. May we write in English this May

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。

きのうは、
東京都(とうきょう)、
神奈川県(かながわ)、
大阪府(おおさかふ)の人口の話をしましたね。

ところで、
この東京都の「都」
神奈川県の「県」
大阪府の「府」

と、けん、ふ、とちがうことばですね。

英語では、
Tokyo,
Kanagawa Prefecture,
Osaka prefectureと言います。

でも、日本ではprefectureは県(けん)や(府)といいます。

たとえば、
Hiroshima prefectureは、広島県(ひろしまけん)
Fukuoka prefectureは福岡県(ふくおかけん)
といいます。

京都と大阪だけ、とくべつです。

"県"ではなく"府"といいます。

京都府(きょうとふ)、大阪府(おおさかふ)ですね。

なぜ県や府があるのでしょうか？

この話はつづきます！

では、今日も最後まで聞いてくれて、だんだん、です。

また明日！
