みなさんこんにちは、美樹のブログです。 暑い日が続いていますね!そろそろ日本の学校は夏休みが始まります。みなさんの国では、学生は制服を着ていますか?日本では多くの場合、中学生と高校生は制服があります。制服の種類は大きく分けて二種類あります。一つは女の子が襟の大きな紺色のセーラー服で、男の子が黒い学ランという場合です。もう一つは男女ともにブレザーで、女の子はスカート、男の子はズボンをはく場合です。私が中学生の時はセーラー服を着ていて、高校生の時はブレザーでした。 制服の他にも日本の学校には多くの指定のものがあります。例えばジャージです。ジャージは運動をする時に着る洋服です。ほとんどの中学校や高校では3種類の色のジャージがあります。このジャージは学年ごとに色が決められています。例えば一年生は赤、二年生は青、三年生は緑という具合です。また、学校の中ではく靴や名札もジャージと同じ色に決められています。 学年によってジャージや名札の色を統一することによって、一目でその学生が何年生であるかわかるので便利ですね。でも私の学校の場合、その決められたジャージのデザインがダサかったので、ジャージを着るのがとても嫌でした。 みなさんが中学生や高校生のころはどんな学生でしたか? それではまた来週!

I was a lazy and impolite student. And I haven’t changed. Oh well.

今週のブログの話題はとても面白いと思います。
わたしは、子どものころテレビでアニメを見ていた時日本の制服を初めて見ました。
それに、イタリアの学生は小学校の時以外普通に制服を着りません。ですから、日本の制服について興味があります。
今日は、美樹さんのおかげでいろいろ勉強になりました!

wearing uniforms is not my thing
but i have to say japanese uniforms for girls are unique
i think no other country has them
Monday at 6:47 am
I think it would be interesting to wear uniforms.

Personally, I’m sick of seeing guys with their pants so low you can see their boxers.
Some priate schools have them, I think, but not mainstream.

みなさん、こんにちは
コメントありがとうございました!

今日、7月30日は「土用の丑の日(どようのうしのひ)」です。
日本では「土用の丑の日」に、うなぎを食べます。
この日にうなぎを食べると、夏の暑さに負けないという言い伝えがあるからです
私も今日の夜ご飯はうなぎを食べます
Today is day of the ox in midsummer .
and Japanese people eat grilled eel to gain strength for summer.
I ll eat ell tonight

I was lazy too
I had been habitually late for school

ブログを楽しんでくれてよかったです
私は久しぶりに制服を着たくなりました
ブログに書いた以外にも、日本の制服にはたくさんの話がありますよ!
卒業する時、女の子は好きな男の人から学ランの第二ボタンをもらいます
それは、一番心臓に近いボタンだからです
>rigoさん

小学校も高校も毎日制服を着た。日本の学校と違うのはネクタイをしたこどた。
今、ネクタイを全然しない日本の学校と逆でしょう? 僕は学校でしてたのに、働き始めてからしない。日本は学校でしなくていいけど、サラリーマンたちはみんなしなきゃだめ。

>maxiwawaさん
私の通っていた高校でも、ネクタイをしないといけませんでした。
でも、そのデザインが悪かったので、ネクタイをしている人は少なかったです:???:先生からよく注意されました
もっと良いデザインだったらよかったのにな・・
日本のサラリーマンはほとんどがネクタイをしていますね
真夏にスーツを着ているサラリーマンはかわいそうです

美樹様、俺もいっぱい鰻ちゃん食べる積もりだぞ!
まゆ~~~☆

Japanese school uniforms are very unique, like rigo said. When I first saw them in mangas, I was like “Why are the girls dressed as sailors?”
Also, can someone show me a link to where I can find the translation? I still haven’t found it

美樹さん こんいちわ,

I always enjoy listening to your blog though I have to read the English version to get the full understanding.
