6. ¿Cómo le llamas a esto en tu país? Edición anécdotas

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

ぼくの日常生活の話を聞くことで、日本語のリスニングをよくしたり、新しい言葉を知ってもらえたらいいなと思います。

みなさんお元気でしょうか。
今日もトルコからPodcastを録っています。

今回はトルコの物価について話します。

トルコの物価はかなり上がってきています。
たとえばサバサンド、おいしいですが、YouTubeで見ていた3年ぐらいまえの値段では30とか50トルコリラでしたが、今はだいたい100トルコリラします。

店によってももちろん違うので、120トルコリラするところもあるし、50トルコリラで食べれる店もあります。

今2023年11月でトルコリラは$1＝28トルコリラ
日本円だと、100トルコリラ＝¥516ぐらいです。

今1か月半ほどイスタンブールにいますが、この期間の間にも物価は変わりました。

店によってはいくつかの料理が10トルコリラ＝¥50ぐらい上がっていました。

物の値段がほとんど変わらなかった日本と比べると、本当に違う環境にいます。

でもスーパーに行くと、日本より安い野菜や果物はたくさんあります。いろんなものが日本よりはまだ安いので、生活はしやすいなと思います。


たぶん、他の国の人から見ると、日本も同じように物価が安い国に見えるんだと思います。

そして基本的にはあまり値段は変わらないです。

あらためて、日本は物の値段が安いけど、おいしい物がたくさんあるなと思います。日本に帰ったらそばを食べたいなぁと考えています。

みなさんの国の物価はどうですか？

そんな話もぜひオンラインレッスンでしましょう！


ということで今回も最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！ではまた！

We all want our friends and relatives to be happy, but who is responsible for their care?
Today we read a story about a 95 year old woman in the UK.

Extract: 
We're going to go through a new story today and it begins with anger as a 95 year old (is)  told to take out her bins. Now, I just want to give you some background to this first of all. So, here in the UK, we have to put our bins on the streets for them to be collected and emptied.
So we have large bins, which are referred to as wheelie bins, And we must put those on the street. Depending on your relationship with your neighbours if you live in an apartment block, someone may do this for you. But the council employees, the people who come to empty the bins, will not come upon your property to collect them. They used to. But they don't any more. Depending on the council and depending on their funding, You may be able to request them to help you if you're old or infirm. As money is tight  these days for everyone, more and more councils are refusing to do this. A council is simply a local area government.
 Now we're going to read through a story here about what's happened to a 95 year old. Now, bearing in mind that here in the UK, we don't generally mix with our neighbours unless we know them very well or are related to them.
As I’ve often told you, we view  the Government almost like a mother or father, we expect them to do the things, which perhaps in your country is done by a community.
