【No. 0881】Sake
May 17, 2017 13:02
Today I would like to talk about the Japanese word "sake."
"Sake" is a generic term for beverages that contain alcohol, and it often referred to as "osake" by attaching a polite prefix "o."
When saying "sake" in English, it usually means "Japanese sake," which is a kind of rice wine.
There are various theories about the etymology of "sake," but I will introduce the most accepted ones.
The theory says that "sa" is a prefix that fixes the rhythm of the word, and "ke" is the changed form of "ki," which was the old name of "sake."
Since I drank a lot of alcohol yesterday, I'm a little fluffy.

酒
今日は「酒」という単語について紹介します。
「酒」とは、アルコールが含まれた飲料の総称で、よく丁寧の接頭辞「お」を付けて「お酒」とも呼ばれます。
（英語で "sake" と言うと、「日本酒」を指すことが多いです。）
この言葉の成り立ちは諸説ありますが、その中で有力なものを一つ紹介します。
「さ」は語調を整える接頭語の「さ」で、「け」は酒の古名「き」が変化したという説です。
私は昨日、酒を沢山飲んだので、少しフラフラしています。
