Episode 18：生まれ変わったら？

"Beauty is not everything but it is something."
With the popularity of social media, many people are pressured to look their best, especially women. In my country, the skin care industry is a billion dollar industry. Many people are obsessed to have that porcelain skin and even change their nose and have lip fillers. The competition is stiff when it comes to the beauty department. However, is it enough? Is beauty alone enough to sustain a conversation, to win a pageant and to be successful in any field? This podcast aims to answer this question.

こんばんは！Atsushiです。
今回も慣用句について話します。

今日は目、を使った慣用句です。

① 人目を盗む（ひとめをぬすむ）
これは、人に見つからないようにこっそりすることを言います。例えば、
人目を盗んで、会おう、とか使いますね。


② 目星を付ける（めぼしをつける）
これは、だいたい、これで決める、というような時に使います。例えば、
今回の犯人の目星は付いている、とか、
今年のクリスマスプレゼントはだいたい目星は付けてある、とか使いますね。



③ 目に浮かぶ（めにうかぶ）
これは、今そこにない姿や様子が、ここにあるかのように思い出される時に使います。
例えば、
彼女の喜ぶ顔が目に浮かぶ、とか使います。



はい、いかがだったでしょうか。
目星を付ける、はプレゼントについて友達と話す時などによく使えそうですね。機会があれば、ぜひ使ってみてください！

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！
