Happy New Year
Episode 23
Tuesday, 31 December, 2024

皆さん、こんにちは。３分日本語のお時間です。一年ぶりの更新ですが、皆さんの2024年はいかがでしたでしょうか。 Hello, everyone. Welcome back to 3-minute Japanese. If you are new here, welcome! It has been exactly one year since I released the last episode. How was the year of 2024 for you? 今日は、12月31日、大晦日です。今回のテーマは年末年始です。 Today is December 31st, New Year’s Eve. The topic of the day is Year-end and New Year holidays. 日本では年末年始はお店や銀行、郵便局、役所などの様々な機関が閉まっていることが多いです。 In Japan, a lot of places such as stores, banks, post offices, and public offices are closed during this time of year. 新年のお祝いに関する日本語をご紹介したいと思います。 I’d like to introduce a few words in Japanese surrounding the New Year’s celebration. 明けましておめでとうございます。 Happy New year! 今年もよろしくお願いします。 It translates, “I look forward to having a good relationship with you this year too.” おせち Osechi is traditional New Year’s dishes prepared in special bento boxes. Each dish has a special meaning for luck and prosperities. はい、本日は以上です。2025年の抱負はポッドキャストの更新の頻度を増やすことです。 That’s it for today. I hope the year 2025 will be a good one for each one of you. One of my new year’s resolutions is to update this podcast more frequently. 2025年もよろしくお願いします。
