☆Words☆
七五三（しちごさん）：Shichi-go-san is an annual Japanese festival to celebrate the growth of children. It takes place on or around November 15. The festival is for boys aged three and five, and girls aged three and seven. That’s why it is called shichi-go-san (seven-five-three).
お祝（いわ）い：celebration
成長（せいちょう）：growth
中旬（ちゅうじゅん）：middle of a month
江戸時代（えどじだい）：Edo period (1603-1868 CE)

ANTI-AGING TIPS 

こんにちは！
Japanese daily life podcast のAtsushiです。
このPodcastは、日本語を楽しく勉強しているみなさんに向けたPodcastです。

ぼくの日常生活の話を聞くことで、日本語のリスニングをよくしたり、新しい言葉を知ってもらえたらいいなと思います。

さて、今日は日本の祝日について。
今日2/11は建国記念日です。

日本ができた、とされる日です。

今日が祝日になったのは、1967年。
はじめの天皇が即位した日、天皇になった日のことですね。

それが、現在の2/11とされています。

それで、今は2/11が建国記念日になっている、ということですね。

神社などでは行事があるみたいですが、ぼくは参加したことはありません。ほとんどの人にとっては、普通の祝日だと思います。

みなさんの国には、建国記念日みたいな祝日はありますか？

そんな話をぜひ日本語のオンラインレッスンでお話しましょう！

お待ちしています！

ということで、今回は以上です。
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！
