Snot and Booger
Today’s topic is a little dirty.
鼻水と鼻くそ
I’m sorry in advance.
今日は少し汚い話題です。
Human beings secrete about 946 ml of snot (technically known as nasal mucus) per day.
ごめんなさい。
The snot has a function to sweep away foreign substances in your nose and to release heat to the outside.
人間は、一日に約946ミリリットルの鼻水を分泌します。
And, when the snot dried around the entrance of you nose, it becomes booger (technically known as dried nasal mucus).
鼻水には、鼻の中の異物を洗い流したり、熱を外に逃がす働きがあります。
By the way, you could have a runny nose if you cried, but the liquid is actually your tears that got through your nose.
そして、鼻の入り口で鼻水が乾燥すると、鼻くそになります。
