- I Don't Like Coriander Hi. Today, I went to my relative's house for the first time in almost 8 years. In other wards, I went there when I was a junior high school student so it reminded me of my childhood. We talked about various things, and one of the conversation content was about the coriander. They cultivate the coriander because it makes profit but they and their neighbor don't eat it because of its peculiar smell. I am also not good at eating it. The reason why we don't eat it because it remind me of one incects. There are a huge outbreak of the insect especially in rural area in Autumn and they give off a terrible smell and the smell is similar to coriandar. Thus we don't think the coriander is delicious, but it is popular by the people who live in urban area because they have never smelled the smell of the insect. So my relatives ship the coriander for urban people. By the way, my relatives cultivate the other vegetables and fruits so I told them that "why don't you sell the vegetables except for the coriander?" They said "the coriander's earning is higher than other products" to me. Althogh I'm not good at eating the coriander, do you like the coriander?October 14, 201720
- About the famous shrine near the sea Hi. Today, I'd like to introduce the shrine called Motonosumiinarijinja in Yamaguchi Prefecture. There is a famous spot for foreigners because there was featured in the American TV program CNN. I have been to there twice. The first time, there was not featured in the media so there were few people, but the second time, there were so many people when I went there in July. There are also foreigner. Motonosui-inari-jinja is including the word which is "inari" so there are many red shrine's symbol called by torii. For example, Fushimi-inari-jinja that is one of the most famous Japanese sightseeing spot for foreigners is also including the "inari" so there are many "torii". Motonosumiinarijinja is surrounded by the sea so you can pass under the "torii" while we see the red of the "torii" and the blue of the sea. You can see the sea and "torii" simulataneously so you can take a picture and put on the Instagram.
October 13, 201721 - About Tsunoshima( Sightseeing Spot) Japan is consist of the four islands mainly and the most largest island is called Honshu. The westmost part of Honshu is Yamaguchi Prefecture where Abe Shinzo who is Japanese prime minister right now was born.Today, I'd like to introduce Tsunoshima and there is located in the westmost part of Yamaguchi Prefecture. Tsunoshima that is island and is surrounded by beautiful sea but the high popular reason is not only what it is. Probably, the reason is that there is straight and long bridge which is between Honshu and Tunoshima. Tsunoshima becomes the famous sightseeing spot because there is gotten attention as advertisement of the car. I have been to there more three times. I will introduce the most famous sightseeing spot for foreigners in Yamaguchi Prefecture next time.
October 11, 201741 - About Speaking Speed! Hi. I'm a japanese man so I speak japanese fluently. You also speak your native language fluently, don't you? That is obvious. I study English now, I feel like the speed spoken by English speaker is very fast. I practice speaking English smoothly because I want to talk with foreigner but in fact I can't. I have a few confidence about listening English but I can't speak English like you are talking even if there is the sentence what you talk before my eyes. I have a question against people learning Japanese. Do you feel like the speed spoken by Japanese speaker is fast? First of all I will practice pronuntiation of R and L.October 10, 201700
- About Shrine Island (Miyajima) Hi. Today, I introduce Shrine Island which is in Hiroshima where I live. Shrine Island is called Miyajima in Japanese and one of Japan's three most beautiful garden and registered as a World Heritage Site. You have to go there by the ship because there is an Island. While you are on the ship, red torii which is symbol in its Island will appear in your eyes. By the way, Torii is a symbol and entrance of a shrine and it is everywhere in Japan. Miyajima's torii is difference from others because it is built on the sea. You can go there by a ship or by on foot because there is a high tide and low tide. If you come in Hiroshima, you should go to Shrine Island and the atomic bomb dome which I introduced at my notebook before. Please enjoy sightseeing in Hiroshima.
October 9, 201770 - A Little Marvelous things Today I received message on the phone from my two friends at the same time. It may sound ordinary but I don't rarely contact with them. I don't never get along well with them but rather are good. The frequency of meeting is just decreasing merely. That' why I amazed it. Do you have the such experience? By the way, the contents of conversation is about drinking alcohol with each other today. I wanted to meet him but I refused it because I had something to do. Sorry my friend.October 7, 201720
- About Pronuntiation Hi. I'm Japanese man. It is difficult for us to distinguish pronuntiation of right and light so we tried it when we are a student but I think good people are few. Thus we predict the word which said by talking partner from the conversation content. Why do you think that Japanese are not good at distinguishing them? We speak Japanese with Hiragana. Hiragana is to Japanese what Alphabet is to English. We pronounce both right and light as ra-i-to according to the Hiragana so that's why we are not good. I want to distinguish right from light.October 5, 201750
