【No. 1988】Kadode (門出 - New Chapter)
Apr 1, 2023 08:49
It's been a very long time since my last post.
Today is my new kadode (門出).
Kado (門) means "gate" and 'de'(出) means "to leave." Since kadode symbolizes leaving the gate of one's own house, it means a "day of departure" or "beginning of a new life."
Kadode is often used for graduation, employment, or marriage, and is frequently referred to as atarashii kadode (新しい門出) or aratana kadode (新たな門出) with the adjective atarashii/aratana (新たな - meaning "new").
Starting this April, I am changing jobs and beginning work as an associate professor at a new university.
I am very excited to finally have my own research lab, which has been a long-held dream of mine.
I will also resume my English studies from now on.

とても久しぶりの投稿です。
今日は私の新しい「門出」にあたります。
「門」は "gate"、「出」は "to leave" を意味し、自分の家の門を出ることから「門出」は「旅立ち」や「新しい生活の始まり」を意味します。
「門出」は卒業や就職、結婚の際に利用されることが多い言葉で、"New" を意味する「新しい」や「新たな」をつけて、「新しい門出」や「新たな門出」のようによく言われます。
この4月から私は転職をし、新しい大学で講師として働き始めます。
ついに念願であった自分の研究室を持つことができ、とてもわくわくしています。
これからは英語の勉強も再開していこうと思います。
