今回はクリスマスシーズンと言う事で、日頃あまり聞かないクリスマス関連の単語をいくつかご紹介します。
Yoletide:クリスマス
advent:クリスマス前の約４週間
Epiphany:クリスマスの12日間(12月25日〜1月6日)の最終日(キリスト顕現日)
choir:聖歌隊(※発音が難しい)
などです。クリスマスの12日間は Twelve Days Of Christmas と言う歌もありますね。ただしこれらの単語は、敬虔なクリスチャンで無い若い世代などは、ネイティブスピーカーでも知らない人もいるようです。
なので、マザーグースを寝る前に聞かせて寝かしつけてもらった経験の無い一般の日本人には、更に馴染みの薄い単語ではないでしょうか？

もう、師走ですね！ 今回は季節がら、
drinker's remorse
です。意味は、
｢飲み過ぎた後の自己嫌悪｣
とでも言えばいいでしょうか？
remorse に自責の意味があるので、解りやすいですね。
他にも、hate(ing) myself などを使ってフレーズで表現することもあります。ちなみに二日酔いは hangover
有名なコメディー映画シリーズのタイトルにもなっていますね。
と言う事で、パーティーや忘年会シーズンですので、飲み過ぎにはお気を付け下さいね！
