Food & Drink
Culinary expressions and mealtime slang
はじめに
「cuppa（紅茶一杯）」から「bangers and mash（ソーセージとマッシュポテト）」まで、イギリスの食べ物の語彙は料理そのものと同じくらい心温まるものです。これらの言葉には、イギリスの社交生活における食と飲み物の大切さが反映されています——危機のときに差し出される紅茶、友情を深めるパブでの食事。
イギリスの食べ物スラングは、フォーマルな名前よりおいしそうに聞こえることが多いんです。「sarnie（サンドイッチ）」の方が「sandwich」より親しみやすいし、「brekkie（朝ごはん）」は「breakfast」よりぬくもりがある。こういう愛称が、食事をイベントに変えてくれます。
この章では、お皿の上のものから食事の感想まで、イギリスの食文化の語彙をお届けします。イギリスで食べて、飲んで、食べ物の話をするすべての人に必須の内容です。
