Moshi Moshi (Hello)

Today I would like to talk about the expression "moshi moshi," which is often used on a daily basis.

"Moshi moshi" is used when you want to address someone, especially make a call.

This expression comes from a verb "mousu," which means "to talk from now."

Formerly, "mousu mousu" and "moushimasu moushimasu" were used by repeating "mousu," but now it's called "moshi moshi" for short.

Incidentally, another expression "oi oi" was used when telephones were opened at first in Japan.

However, since "oi oi" was a little rude expression used by men, before long it was no longer in use.

もしもし

今日は「もしもし」というとても頻繁に利用される表現を紹介します。

「もしもし」は、相手に呼び掛ける際に用いる言葉で、特に電話の第一声で使用されます。

この言葉は、「これから話をします」という意味の「申す（もうす）」という動詞に由来します。

かつてはこの動詞を連ねて「申す、申す」もしくは「申します、申します」と使われていましたが、これが短縮されて「もしもし」となりました。

ちなみに、日本で電話が開通した当初は「おいおい」という言葉が使われていました。

しかし、「おいおい」は男性が使う少し乱暴な表現ということで、しばらくして使われなくなりました。

  This is an appositive phrase. You are saying what the expression is so you need to use commas.
  
  "was used"
