おはようございます！Atsushiです。
北海道に帰ってきましたので、今日は北海道からとっています。

今日の天気ははれ。
気温は23℃、大阪に比べると10℃ぐらい低いです。
とても涼しいですね。


今日はあいづちについて。
日本人と話している時に、
へー、とか、
うんうん、とか
言われたことはありませんか？
それがあいづちです。

相手の話に言葉で反応して、会話をスムーズにします。

では、なぜあいづちというのか。
それは、昔、鍛冶 (かじ) (きんぞくをたたいて物を作る人)の二人の職人が鉄の製品を作る時、リズム良く交互に槌(つちーhammer)を打ち合わせて作っていました。

そうやって、あいてのつちにあわせることから、相手の話に反応することを、あいづちと言うようになりました。


あいづちには、
へー
うんうん
それで？
そうなんや！
ほんまにー
など、いろいろあります。
そして、人によります。


日本はあいづちが多い国です。
相手の話を聞いていることをあいづちやうなずきなどで伝えることができます。

一方、ほかの国では、あいづちが多すぎると良くないところもあるようですので、そういったコミュニケーションの文化、習慣を知ることも大切ですね。

はい、ということで、今回もありがとうございます！
ではまた！

32 あいづちについて

If you see someone sitting alone in a restaurant, you might assume they're waiting for someone, or perhaps they're grabbing a quick lunch on their break.

But more and more people around the world are purposely dining alone.

Japan has a special word for this: ohitorisama, which refers to people confidently doing things alone without worrying about what others think.

A recent survey found that 23% of Japanese people eat out alone, up from 18% in 2018. And in the US, solo dining reservations have risen 29% over the last two years, according to restaurant reservation site OpenTable.

OpenTable CEO Debby Soo thinks remote work is one reason for the increase, with people looking for a break from their home offices.

The increasing popularity in solo dining comes as more people are living alone. In 2019, the Pew Research Center found that 38% of US adults ages 25 to 54 were living without a partner, up from 29% in 1990. In Japan, single households now make up one-third of the total; that’s expected to increase to 40% by 2040, according to government data.

Growing interest in solo travel — particularly among travelers ages 55 and over — is also leading to more meals alone.

But Soo thinks there could be more to it than that.

"I think there's a broader movement of self-love and self-care and really … enjoying your own company," Soo said.

As a result, many restaurants are redoing their seating, changing their menus and adding other special touches to appeal to solo diners.

But some aren't always happy to seat one diner. A Michelin-starred London restaurant caused a stir last year when it started charging solo diners the same price as two customers. The restaurant, which has 34 seats, offers an eight-course menu costing about $280 per person.

Other restaurants say it's worth seating one person because solo diners will often come back and eat there again.
