This story is a little bit
dirty, but I want to talk the “Amazing Japanese Technology”.
Most Japanese do NOT go to
#2 without this.
“Washlet”
Most houses have “Washlet”
in Japan.
“Washlet” is one of the
most missing things for me.
It is the function that
you can wash your ass after #2!
I found the Youtube video, let's take a look.
You get it?
Peter says,
Peter: I am really missing
it…
By the way, I am curious
that if foreigners who are living in Japan usually use Washlet or not.
少し汚い話しかもしれないが、日本の”素晴らしいテクノロジー"についてのお話。
ほとんどの日本人は”これ”が無いと”大きな方”をしたくない。
“ウォッシュレット”
日本ではほとんどの家庭のトイレに”ウォッシュレット”がついている。
私にとって、これが１番に値するほどアメリカ生活で存在してほしい。
日本語でウォッシュレットの話しをしても無意味に等しいため、簡単にトイレに行く時の面白い話。
英語では”小”のことをNumber 1と言い、”大”のことをNumber 2と言う。
正直、実際あまり会話で聞いたことは無いが、文章にする時に表現しやすいのでは。
また、下記のような発言はよく耳にする。
Peter: OMG!!! I gotta
pee!!! （おしっこ行かなきゃ！）
そして１つ疑問が生まれる。
日本にいる外国人の方々は、はたしてウォッシュレットを愛用しているのか？

Hi Teppei! Fist of all I really like your blog! It s interesting and with different topic so everyone can enjoy without getting bored!!!! I love this post about “Washlet”: it s so technologic!!!! ☺ In Italy we have BIDE that has the same function but is separate from the toilet… I miss my bide sooooo much!!!!!! I so strange because when you live in your country you never think that the other country don’t have something so simple and useful. But when you travel you understand that also the simple daily things are part of the culture… and every culture is different!
ReplyDeleteThank you for share this, now I know I m not the only one!!!
Thank you for your comment, Vale!!!!!
DeleteI know BIDE, I saw it in Italy. Actually, I couldn't figure out what the object was. It was wired that there is a object that I haven't seen in front of a toilet. I was trying to use it, and I.... No, I'm kidding!
I couldn't even touch it.
Anyway, thank you for reading and hope you have a chance to use "Washlet" sometime.
