Hi, This is the podcast episode 18. It’s getting warmer and warmer. Jumpers feel a bit hot during the day. Osaka has been sunny every day. There is not a single cloud in the sky, it’s a beautiful day. Speaking of which, I recently uploaded this podcast to Youtube as well. Please check it out: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3HUNV-vylkRHXP_bKJZeYQ

私の家の近くには小学校があるので、近所の道には子供がたくさん歩いています。日本の小学生は、歩いて学校に通います。家から学校までのルートは「通学路」といいます。通学路は学校が決めます。いちばん人通りが多く、安全なルートです。通学路には、誘拐や寄り道がないように、大人が立っていることもあります。「誘拐」とは、人をどこかに連れて行く犯罪です。「寄り道」とは、どこかに行く途中で、違う場所に行くことです。

There is a primary school near my house, so there are many children walking on the neighbourhood streets. Japanese primary school children walk to school. The route from home to school is called a ‘Tsuugakuro’ (school route). Tsuugakuro is decided by the school. It is the busiest and safest route. Adults may stand on Tsuugakuro to prevent Yuukai and Yorimichi. ‘Yuukai’ (kidnapping) is a crime where a person is taken somewhere. ‘Yorimichi’ (detour, dropping in on the way) is going somewhere different on the way to somewhere else.

今日の午後は筋トレをしました。「筋トレ」とは「筋力トレーニング」の略で、体を強くするための運動のことです。私はジムに行きません。家で筋トレを続けています。私が筋トレを始めたのは、４年ぐらい前です。フリーランスになって、外に出る機会が減ったので、運動をすることにしました。

This afternoon we did Kintore. ‘Kintore’ (strength training) is short for Kinryoku (muscle strength) Tore-ningu (training)’, an exercise to strengthen the body. I don’t go to the gym. I continue to strength train at home. I started Kintore about four years ago. When I became a freelancer I decided to exercise because I didn’t get out as often.
