ICHIGO’S AIM いちごのもくてき
Since the advent of Kansai Science City, the town of Seika, along with its foreign population, has been growing
rapidly. In an effort to make the lives of foreign residents easier, the Seika Town Office produces this newsletter monthly and
distributes it to all foreign residents of Seika who do not speak Japanese as a main language. Hence, this newsletter was given
a hiragana name that everyone can identify with. "いちご,” (ichigo) means 'strawberry,' Seika's most famous product.
Please enjoy the "いちご!”

A NOTE FROM THE EDITOR

へんしゅうしゃのことば

お世話になっています
Osewa ni Natte Imasu
This phrase means, "I am in debt to you." It is a very
polite phrase that is used in cases when you talk to
somebody who has perhaps helped you out in some way.
It is also used in cases where someone has helped
someone close to you. For example, if you were to meet
your son's teacher for the first time, you would use this
phrase. Sometimes, it is merely a formality, so you may
use it even though someone has not actually done
something for you.

It's rapidly getting hot in Seika Town. I hope everyone is
enjoying the summer heat (yeah, right) and the World Cup
fervor. For those of us who couldn't get tickets to any of
the games, I'm sure it'll be a lot nicer watching it on the TV
inside anyways. It'll be a lot cooler, right?

June 16th Father’s Day 父の日
A day to thank fathers for all their hard work and dedication to the family. As in some other countries, in Japan this holiday is
celebrated on the third Sunday of June. Correspondingly, it makes one wonder if neckties sell briskly during the Friday and
Saturday before as well.
たなばた
July 7 th Tanabata 七夕
Tanabata, the ‘Star Festival,’ is said to be a combination of Chinese tradition with beliefs peculiar to Japan. This festival
celebrates the annual meeting of two celestial lovers, Kengyu (the star Altair, or Hikobishi in Japanese, personified as a
cowherd) and Shokujo (Vega, Orihime in Japanese, personified as a weaving girl). The two lovers are separated by the
Milky Way on the other days of the year, but their yearning brings them together on this day. Pieces of bamboo (sasakazari)
are set up in the garden and adorned with strips of paper of five different colors on which are written poems associated with
the legend, as well as wis hes to the lovers and offerings of food, such as corn and eggplant are made. Young girls pray that
their handicraft will become as proficient as Orihime’s was supposed to be.
The above information was taken in part from ‘Nippon, the Land and its People,’ 1988.
