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、暖房(だんぼう)の話をしました。

じつは今日、私の家の暖房がつきませんでした。

家のセントラルヒーティングが、こわれました。

暖房がつかないので、部屋がすごく寒くなりました。

私は部屋のオーナーに、

「あのー、セントラルヒーティングがつきません。

あたたかく、なりません。」

と言いました。

夜になって、修理(しゅうり)の人が来ました。

ぶじに、セントラルヒーティングはなおりました。

いまは、あたたかいです。

あー、ホッとしました。

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！

Japaneseだんだんpodcast

58. 暖房(だんぼう)がつかない/Japaneseだんだんpodcast

ちょっと… (Chotto...)
Meaning "a little," but when said with a pause, it usually implies "It’s a bit difficult" or "I’m not really up for it."

Example:
A: "週末に映画を見に行かない？" (Shūmatsu ni eiga o mi ni ikanai? / Shall we go see a movie this weekend?)
B: "ちょっと..." (Chotto... / [Subtle 'no'])

考えておきます (Kangaete okimasu)
This phrase translates to "I’ll think about it," but it often means "I’m not sure" or "probably not." It’s a polite way of dodging the question without rejecting it outright.

難しいですね (Muzukashii desu ne)
Literally means "It’s difficult," but it’s commonly used as a soft "no." Instead of saying they can’t do something, people will say it’s difficult, implying they can’t or won’t.
