我们等了一会儿，菜就来了。宫保鸡丁很好吃，米饭也很好。朋友说炒面很好吃。

Last weekend, my friend and I went to a Chinese restaurant. When we arrived, the waiter gave us menus. I ordered a Kung Pao Chicken, a bowl of rice and a cup of tea. My friend ordered a fried noodles and a glass of water. We waited for a while and the food came. The Kung Pao Chicken was delicious and so was the rice. Friends said the fried noodles are delicious. After we finished eating, we asked the waiter to pay. We paid by mobile phone which was very convenient. I enjoyed my meal this time, the food was good and the service was excellent.

日本語だんだんポットキャストのゆかりです。

私は先月(せんげつ)、東南(とうなん)アジアへ行きました。

1ヶ月間(いっかげつかん)の
旅行(りょこう)をしました。

シンガポール、マレーシア、ベトナム、タイへ行ったのですが‥

ほとんどの場所で、
クレジットカードを使うことができました。

私は日本では、現金(げんきん)は
ほとんど使いません。

いつも、カードや、Apple Pay、QRコード決済(けっさい)を使います。

日本だと、だいたいのところでカードが使えます。

コンビニ
大きなスーパー
レストラン
タクシー
自動販売機(じどうはんばいき)

など‥ですね。

個人(こじん)でやっている、
飲食店(いんしょくてん)では、使えないこともあります。

現金だけのところは、たとえば‥

ラーメン屋さん
うどん屋さん
そば屋さん
とても安いスーパー
ローカルバスや電車の切符(きっぷ)

など‥
カードは使えないことが、多いです。
現金だけですね。

カードが使えるかわからないとき、
こう聞きます。

「すみません、カードはつかえますか？」

です。

お店の人の答えは、カードが使えるときは、

「はい、使えますよ！」
「大丈夫です。」

とかえってきます。

大丈夫とは‥
カードを使うことは大丈夫ということですね。

カードが使えないときは、

「現金だけです。」

「申し訳ありません。現金のみです。」

と返ってきます。

日本に旅行にきたときは、

「カードはつかえますか？」

ぜひ、聞いてみて下さい。

En este episodio de "Modales en el Mar y en la Mesa", nos sumergimos en una historia fascinante donde una ballena jorobada nos enseña lecciones inesperadas sobre etiqueta y buenos modales. A través del sorprendente encuentro de Adrián Simancas, un joven kayakista que fue brevemente tragado y luego escupido por una ballena en las costas de Chile, exploramos cómo ciertas acciones, tanto en la naturaleza como en la mesa, reflejan cortesía y respeto.

Dirigido a angloparlantes que aprenden español, este episodio te ayudará a descubrir verbos que pueden ser groseros o poco corteses si se usan incorrectamente. Aprenderás sobre palabras como eructar, tragar, sorber y más, comprendiendo su uso apropiado y evitando situaciones embarazosas.

Acompáñanos en este viaje lingüístico y cultural donde, con la ayuda de una ballena muy educada, navegaremos por las aguas de los buenos modales y el lenguaje preciso. ¡Porque incluso en el vasto océano, hay lecciones valiosas que aprender!
