A: How are you? I’m fine, thank you. And you? A: Good. B: What’s your name? My name is ○○○○. B: Where do you live? I live in ○○○○, Tokyo. A: What is "Kanzashi"? "Kanzashi" is a traditional comb for women. Women put it on when they wear kimono for a decoration purpose. (ornamental hair pinと言うべきだったか) A: Why do Japanese children have a lot of cards, toys, etc? (カードの意味が分からず聞き返したが、toyと言ったので、次のように回答したが、家で子供に聞いたら、ポケモンのカードらしい) Parents, grandparents and relatives give those toys. But I don't think that's good. It might spoil the child, because they have so many things to do such as homework. And I think it is much more important to play outside with their friends. A: Why do a Japanese husband get a small amount of money every month from their wife? It comes from the traditional role between a husband and a wife. Husbands work outside to earn money, and leave everything including house budget to their wives. That's why. In my case, I control the family budget every month. A: Why don't Japanese husbands clean the toilet? This also comes from the traditional role of a husband and a wife. But under the Equal Opportunity Law, and because some females or housewives have started working lately, (しどろもどろしながら) Japanese husbands are changing. Actually some husbands do housework to help their wives. A: What is "Seijin-no-hi"? "Seijin-no-hi" is "Coming-of-Age Day," which is held on January 15th in their hometowns where they were born. (不十分な答えになってしまった) A: Any presents? Yes. A: Why does Japan send SDF to Iraq? SDF is not a military force. In order to co-operate with other Western countries and U.N., Koizumi government decided to send SDF to that country. So that Japan will contribute a lot to world peace. A: Do you think Prime Minister is good so far? Yes, I think so. Koizumi has done a good job so far. Regarding diplomatic affairs, he should be careful a little bit. Some Asian countries such as China and South Korea are opposed to Koizumi’s behavior. I think we should need to talk further with these countries to have a good relationship. A: OK. That's it. Thank you. Thank you very much. |
