Aki no Mikaku (秋の味覚 - Seasonal Food of Fall/Autumn)

Sep 24, 2019 13:07
Aki no Mikaku

Yesterday, I introduced the term 'sanma' (サンマ), which means "Pacific saury."

In Japan, 'sanma' is one of the most typical 'aki no mikaku' (秋の味覚).

Since 'aki' (秋) means "fall/autumn" and 'mikaku' (味覚) means "flavor," the literal meaning of 'aki no mikaku' is "fall/autumn flavors."

In addition to 'sanma', 'kuri' (栗 - "chestnut"), 'matsutake' (松茸 - "matsutake mushroom"), 'satsumaimo' (サツマイモ - "sweet potate"), and 'nashi' (梨 - "pear") are often lined up as seasonal food of fall/autumn.
秋の味覚

昨日は「サンマ」という言葉を紹介しました。

サンマは、代表的な「秋の味覚」です。

「秋」は "fall/autumn"、「味覚」は "flavor" を意味するので、「秋の味覚」は fall/autumn flavors"" という意味になります。

サンマの他には、「栗」や「松茸」、「サツマイモ」、「梨」などがよく秋の味覚として挙げられます。

     "lined up" sounds strange/unclear
    also it's potato not potate. "Potato" is pronounced with an "oh" sound at the end.
yum!
