I really think you should start using this word!

We are continuing with the topic of persuasion, this time in the context of giving advice. We will be looking at some examples of phrasal verbs as well as persuasive expressions to help you give the best advice and recommendations. To assist us with this topic, Miss Finesstocrat will be hosting her very own radio programme as an agony aunt, doing her best to solve her listeners' problems.

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

日本は今、台風が来ています。
毎年この時期には台風がよく来ます。

今は台風7号が来ています。

8/15の10:00ぐらいに和歌山を通っています。
こういう時、日本に住んでいる人は、少し怖いですね。
いろんな情報があるけど、言葉がわかりにくいかもしれないですね。

ということで、台風の時のニュースのだいたいの内容を読みながら説明しますね。

日本に住んでいる方や、これから日本に住む方、旅行で日本に来る予定のある方も知っておいた方が良いと思います。


では、やりましょう！


"台風7号は15日午前9時現在、和歌山市付近にあって、時速15キロで北西へ進んでいます。 "
ー台風の現在地を説明します。
時速15キロは本当にゆっくりですね。その分、同じ場所に雨が長い時間降ったりします。

"中心気圧は980ヘクトパスカル、最大風速は30メートル、最大瞬間風速は40メートルとなっています。"
ー台風の強さを説明します。


"この台風は、15日午前5時前に和歌山県潮岬付近に上陸しました。台風は、15日は近畿を北上する見込みです。その後、16日から17日頃にかけて日本海を北上し、北海道に近づくおそれがあります。"
ー台風がどのように進むかを説明します。こういう時に、
〜付近
上陸するー海から陸を通る
北上するー北に上がる
見込みーそうなるという確信があること
おそれがあるーわるいことが起こる推測がある
など、よく使いますね。

"土砂災害、低い土地の浸水、河川の増水や氾濫、暴風に厳重に警戒し、高波に警戒してください。"
ー起こりそうな災害、さいがい、について説明しています。
けっこういろんな言葉が出てきますね。

土砂災害どしゃさいがい
ー山やがけがくずれたり、土砂が雨水や川の水と混ざって流れたりすること

浸水しんすい
ー水が家や建物に入ってくること

増水ぞうすい
ー川の水がいつもより増えること

氾濫はんらん
ー川の水がいっぱいになってあふれ出ること

暴風ぼうふう
ーとても強い風で、被害がともなう風

厳重げんじゅう
ーいいかげんにせず、強い気持ちで取り組むこと

警戒けいかい
ー危険にそなえて、十分に注意すること

高波たかなみ
ー文字通り高い波、ですが、人が海岸に近づくと危ないレベルの高い波、ということです。


と、こんな感じです。

日常会話では使いませんが、台風の時の情報を知る大切な言葉です。


特に日本に住む方は一緒に声に出して覚えてくださいね！


ということで今回は以上です。

今回も最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！
