#46 [A2] 12月は忙しい(12がつはいそがしい)

You can find the grammar points used in this episode, along with the full transcript, below in the description.

This episode features a story designed for A2 beginner-level Japanese learners. The sentences use the です/ます form, and verbs appear in the ます-, て-, る-, and **た-**forms. After listening to the story once, try answering some comprehension questions to check your understanding. Following the questions, I explain some potentially difficult words. Finally, you will hear the story again.

To make your learning more effective, don't just listen repeatedly—try reading aloud with subtitles or practicing shadowing. This podcast also includes a video with subtitles, and you can find the full transcript in the episode description.

12月のことを、古い日本語で「師走」と言います。「師走」という言葉の本当の意味は、はっきりはわかりません。でも、ひとつめの漢字「師」は先生やお坊さんなど、何かを教える人のことで、ふたつめの漢字「走」は走るという意味ですから、「師走」は「先生も走るほど、忙しい月」という意味だと思っている人が多いです。では、どうして日本の12月は忙しいのでしょうか。まず、日本人は新しい1年の始まりをとても大切にします。1年の始まりをお正月といって、家族でお祝いします。そのお正月のために12月に色々な準備をしなければいけません。たとえば、家や職場で、いつも掃除しないところもしっかりと掃除をして綺麗にする「大掃除」をします。それから、お正月の飾りを準備したり、お正月に食べる料理を準備したりします。お正月の料理には、「お雑煮」という餅が入っているスープや、色々な伝統料理を詰め合わせたカラフルな「おせち料理」などがあります。また、1年の終わりに、友達や会社の同僚と、「忘年会」というパーティーをする人もいます。色々な人に会ったり、たくさん買い物をしたり、家でもたくさん準備をしたりしますから、12月は忙しくなります。皆さんの国や地域では、12月はどんな月ですか。たくさんイベントがありますか。1年の終わりや始まりを、大切にしますか。ぜひ、コメントしてみてくださいね。
