The other day, I was thinking about what kind of lesson I can teach here and at first I had an idea, and then I had another idea and then another one. The first one actually brought me to the other one. Today, we're going to talk about three little words that can cause big confusion:another, other, and the other.

本集简介 / Episode Summary / エピソード概要：中文： 在很多国家，餐厅通常不让顾客自带酒水和食物。但在中国，这种做法非常普遍，甚至你点的外卖都能直接送到餐桌上。这期节目我结合最近回国亲身经历的一些例子，跟大家聊聊中国这种不同的自带酒水和食品的文化。English: In many countries, restaurants usually don't allow customers to bring their own drinks or food. But in China, this is very common, and you can even have outside food delivery sent straight to your table. In this episode, I'm sharing some personal stories from my recent trip back home to talk about this different BYOB and bring-your-own-food culture in China.日本語： 多くの国では、レストランで飲み物や食べ物の持ち込みは通常許可されていません。しかし中国ではとても一般的で、デリバリーを直接テーブルまで届けてもらうことさえできます。今回のエピソードでは、最近帰国したときの体験を交えて、中国のちょっと変わった持ち込み文化についてお話しします。 #BYOB文化 #中国饮食文化 #中国饮食習慣 #CulturalDifference #文化差异 #中国の食文化 #中國餐飲文化 #中國飲食習慣 #생활중국 #중국음식문화 发短信给我！ Send me a text!Support the show如果您喜欢我的播客，欢迎通过下方方式表达您的支持。您的支持对我来说是巨大的鼓励。但无论如何，我都很感激有您作为听众。能够每周与您分享几分钟的时光，对我来说是莫大的荣幸。❤️ If you enjoy my podcast, you're welcome to show your support through the options below.
