【Japanese Podcast#21】東京人(とうきょうじん)は冷(つめ)たい？Tokyo people are NOT nice?

script

おはようございます。
日本語だんだんポッドキャストのゆかりです。

みなさんの国は、いま何時ですか？

日本は、いま、朝の6時半です。

ろくじはん、とはろくじさんじゅっぷんのことです。

6時半と、6時30分は同じです。

同じ時間です。

あ、もうすぐ、6時32分になります。

この"はん"というのは、30分のことです。

半分(はんぶん)の半と、同じ漢字です。
半年(はんとし)の半と、同じ漢字です。

1時間の半分は・・そう、30分ですね。

私たちはよく、6時30分ではなく、6時半と言います。
ほかにも・・
1時半、いちじはん
2時半、にじはん
3時半、さんじはん
4時半、よじはん
5時半、ごじはん
6時半、ろくじはん
7時半、しちじはん、または、ななじはん
8時半、はちじはん
9時半、くじはん
10時半、じゅうじはん
11時半、じゅういちじはん
12時半、じゅうにじはん

といいます。

例えば、友達と会う約束をするとき、

「明日、何時にする？」

「えっと、じゃあ、12時半はどう？」

「うん、12時半ね。」

と12時30分のことを、12時半、といいます。

とてもよく使います。

ただし、30分間のことを半分間(はんふんかん)とは言いません。

6時半、5時半、というふうに、
時間のあとに言ってくださいね。

それでは、今日も最後まで聞いてくれて、だんだん、です。

また明日。
