【No. 0412】How to Get On and Off Trains in Japan

Feb 3, 2016 10:24
Today, I will introduce how to get on and off trains in Japan.

There are many types of trains, but the ways to get on and off them are divided into three types.

In cities like Tokyo or many other regions, doors of trains open and close automatically.

However, in the suburbs or the countryside (especially in cold regions), we have to open and close the doors by pushing buttons.

Furthermore, if the trains are old types, we have to open and close the doors by using our hands.

The reason why the opening and closing are performed manually is to improve the efficiency of heating and cooling by not leaving the doors open.

Also, the last person who was getting on or off the train has not to forget to close the door firmly.

Please be careful when you use these trains in Japan.
日本の電車

今日は、日本の電車について紹介します。

日本には様々な種類の電車が走っていますが、乗降の種類は大きく3つあります。

東京やのような都会やその他多くの地域では、電車の扉は自動で開閉します。

しかし郊外や田舎（特に寒冷地方）に行くと、ドアの開閉はボタンで行います。

さらに、古いタイプの電車だと、ドアの開閉は手で行います。

このように手動でドアの開閉を行うのは、扉を開けっ放しにしないことで冷暖房の効率をあげるためです。

また、最後に乗り降りした人は、扉をしっかりと閉めるのを忘れないようにしましょう。

これらの電車に乗る祭は注意して下さい。

    This is a common mistake in English that Japanese people make. In English, you use the "third person you".
