Diary
かき氷
A short easy Japanese summer diary about eating strawberry kakigori with plenty of milk on a hot day.
暑いですから、かき氷を食べました🍧
It was hot, so I had shaved ice.
いちご味です。
It was strawberry flavor.
ミルクがたっぷりで、とてもおいしかったです。
It had lots of milk and was very delicious.
暑い日に食べるかき氷は、おいしいですね😋
Shaved ice is delicious on a hot day, isn’t it?
「氷」 is usually read 「こおり」 on its own, but in 「かき氷」 it becomes 「ごおり」 because of rendaku (sequential voicing).
Today's Words

What You Can Practice
- 「〜ですから」 gives a reason and means “because” or “since,” as in 「暑いですから」 (“because it is hot”).
- 「〜に食べる」 uses 「に」 to show when something is eaten, as in 「暑い日に食べる」 (“eat on a hot day”).
