日本のクリスマスとお正月。北米と逆だなと思います。日本はクリスマスはパーティーとかサンタクロースのイメージ。お正月がもう少し神聖な雰囲気で家族でも集まります。

TRANSCRIPTION (explanation included)
These expressions of apology encompass a range of tones and levels of formality. In everyday conversation, one might simply say "sorry" or "my bad" to acknowledge a mistake. When the apology is sincere, phrases like "I sincerely apologize" and "I'm truly sorry" convey the depth of regret. In informal settings, a more casual approach may be taken with expressions like "I messed up" or "oops, I'm sorry," adding a touch of camaraderie. For matters necessitating decorum, a formal approach may involve phrases like "I offer my most sincere apologies" or "please accept my formal apology," while emphasizing the depth of regret. Politeness tempers the apology in expressions such as "I'm so sorry" and "please forgive me," demonstrating a genuine desire for reconciliation. A touch of wit adds a layer of humor to the apology, as seen in expressions like "I'm on the apology tour" or "I'm in hot water." In more refined circles, the upper class might communicate their regret with statements like "I must express my profound regret" or "please accept my sincerest apologies," maintaining an air of warmth. For royalty, an apology is conveyed with grace and respect, as in "I extend my most heartfelt apologies" or "please accept my deepest regrets," underscoring the formal nature of the response. Ultimately, the choice of expression hinges on the context and the level of decorum required for the situation at hand.

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。

北海道旅行の続きです。
2日目の話です。

スターバックスを出てからの続きですね。
そのあと、六花亭という菓子店に行きました。

六花亭、ろっかてい、というのは、北海道の有名な菓子店の１つです。そして、この帯広の店は本店です。

1番はじめにできた店、ということですね。

1933年に開業したそうなので、今年2023年でちょうど90年です。こういう古くからある店を老舗、しにせ、ともいいます。

このお店でいくつかお菓子を買いました。


この六花亭で1番人気なのは、北海道土産、みやげ、としては定番、ていばん、のお菓子は、マルセイバターサンドというお菓子です。

マルセイバターサンドは、ホワイトチョコレートとレーズン、北海道産生乳１００％のバターをあわせたクリームをビスケットでサンドしたお菓子です。

マルセイバターとは、北海道、十勝、とかち、で最初に作られたバター「マルセイバタ」の名前です。

これが本当に美味しいです！
個人的には北海道のお菓子で1番好きかもしれません。

ということで、今回は旅行の途中に行った、六花亭、の話をしました。

この旅行の続きは、また月のPodcastで話します。

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！

#312 車の北海道旅行、六花亭、について！④

Luke Littler became the youngest world champion in darts history on January 3 when the 17-year-old Englishman beat three-time champion Michael van Gerwen 7-3 in the final.

"Everyone dreams of lifting this trophy," Littler said after beating van Gerwen. "I can't believe it."

The teenager has also become a sporting sensation. He's an ordinary English teenager who enjoys fast food and video games but has an extraordinary talent for throwing darts.

That talent has earned him fame and fortune. He made $1.28 million in prize money during 2024 and he added another $620,000 to that when he won the 2025 World Championship.

He has become one of the most talked about sports stars in the UK since finishing as the World Championship runner-up in 2024.

According to Google, he was the most searched sportsperson in the UK in December, and the third-most searched celebrity, behind only Donald Trump and Kate Middleton.

Littler's success has also helped bring darts back into the mainstream.

Although Littler is young, he's been working at his game for more than a decade. There are videos of him throwing magnetic darts while still wearing a diaper.

Van Gerwen was previously the youngest world champion in the elite Professional Darts Corporation competition, winning the 2014 final at age 24.

Van Gerwen said losing his record "hurt" but was full of praise for Littler.

"Every 17 years a star gets born," Van Gerwen said, "and he is one of them."

Many were already wondering if Littler can reach Phil Taylor's record of 16 world titles. Claiming a first title at age 17 will now supercharge that conversation.
