Story: The Honeymoon- part 2

“I’d really like to participate in a drawing contest, which is organised by my university every year, and the first three prize winners actually go forward to a national drawing contest. I wasn’t so into drawing over the years, but I found that during all the covid lockdowns that it was a great way to pass the time, and really helped me from going stir crazy stuck at home every day during the numerous lockdowns we had.

 

I recently showed some of my friends a few of my sketches, which are mostly landscapes, and they were very complimentary, and suggested that I enter a competition, which gave me a boost of confidence. 

I imagine that the  competition would be pretty stiff for this contest, but i feel confident that i’ve really developed my skills enough over the past year or so, and with my friends and families encouragement have been able to get the nerve up to show off my drawing skills in public.

 

I guess the main reason i’d like to take part in this contest is that i’ve really grown to love drawing, and feel it would actually be a lot of fun to enter, as well as giving me a new challenge which i think i’m now ready for. Another reason is of course the chance of winning a nice prize, and maybe even having my drawing going forward to the national contest, which would really be amazing.

 

Thank you…. “

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。

今日は、"おてあらい"と“トイレ"についてです。

みなさん、トイレはきいたことがあると思います。

「すみません、トイレはありますか？」

「トイレはどこですか？」

といいます。

トイレのべつの言い方で、

"御手洗(おてあらい)"があります。

おてあらいも、トイレも、同じいみです。

おてあらいは、漢字では、
手を洗(あら)う、とかきます。

手を洗うことができる場所(ばしょ)

つまり、トイレのことですね。

私はよく、お店では、トイレよりおてあらいといいます。

お店の人に、
「おてあらいは、どこですか？」

「あちらですよ。」

「ありがとうございます。」

と言います。

私はとくに、ご飯を食べる場所(ばしょ)で、おてあらいといいます。
レストランやカフェですね。

なぜかというと・・

ご飯を食べている、ほかの人がいるので、
"トイレ"と言いたくないからです。

手を洗う場所、のいみの方が、
聞こえてもいいような気がします。

なので、ともだちの家に行くと、

「あ、ちょっとトイレかりてもいい？」

といいます。

日本で"おてあらい"、ぜひつかってみて下さいね。

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。

I sitdown with Carl Honoré is a bestselling author, broadcaster and two-time TED speaker. He is also the voice of the Slow Movement. 

After working with street children in Brazil, Carl covered Europe and South America for the Economist, Observer, Miami Herald, Houston Chronicle, National Post (Canada), Time and other publications. 

His first book, In Praise of Slow, chronicles the global trend toward putting on the brakes in everything from work to food to parenting. The Financial Times said it is “to the Slow Movement what Das Kapital is to communism”.

Carl’s second book, Under Pressure explores how to raise and educate children in a fast world and was hailed by Time as a “gospel of the Slow Parenting movement”.

Carl’s third book, The Slow Fix, explores how to tackle complex problems in every walk of life, from health and relationships to business and politics, without falling for superficial, short-term quick fixes.

His fourth book, Bolder: How To Age Better And Feel Better About Ageing, is a spirited manifesto against ageism.

Carl recently published his first children’s book, It’s The Journey Not the Destination
Published in 36 languages, Carl has landed on bestseller lists in many countries. 

In Praise of Slow was a BBC Radio 4 Book of the Week and the inaugural choice for the Huffington Post Book Club. It also featured in a British TV sitcom, Argentina’s version of Big Brother and a TV commercial for the Motorola tablet. 

Under Pressure was shortlisted for the Writers’ Trust Award, the top prize for non-fiction in Canada. 

Bolder was also a BBC Radio 4 Book of the Week as well as a Reader’s Digest (UK) Book of the Month.

Carl featured in a series for BBC Radio 4 called The Slow Coach in which he helped frazzled, over-scheduled people slow down. He also presented a television show called Frantic Family Rescue on Australia’s ABC 1.

Carl lives in London. While researching his first book on slowness he was slapped with a speeding ticket.

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

今日はサウナについて話そうと思います。
みなさんはサウナに行きますか？

ぼくは今までほとんど行ったことがなかったんです。
ですが、最近行ってとても良かったのでその話をしようと思います。



サウナはフィンランドが発祥とされるようです。
石を積み上げたストーブを高温に加熱して、そこに水をかけて蒸気を発生させます。

室内温度は60〜90℃ぐらいです。

サウナに数分入った後、外に出て水風呂に入ったり、外の空気にふれた後、またサウナに入る、ということを繰り返します。これによって、体の中はアドレナリンがたくさん出ている興奮状態と体の外は外気温に触れてリラックスするという特別な状態が生まれます。

これが、最近の日本では"ととのう"という状態だそうです。Wikipedia情報ですが、間違ってたらすみません。

サウナに行っている人はそのとても気持ちいい状態があることは知っていると思います。

日常では味わうことのない、脱力感というか、開放感というか、そんな不思議な感覚です。

個人的には乾燥肌でアトピー性皮膚炎もあるので、発汗、汗をかくことはとても大切なんですね。ですので、僕にとっては健康でいるための良い方法だと思います。

体も気持ちもリフレッシュできるサウナ、もし行ったことがない人はぜひ行ってみてください！めっちゃ気持ちいいですよ！

ということで、今回は以上です。
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！
