おごり
의미: Treating someone to a meal, drink, or purchase — paying for someone else as a gesture of generosity.
おごり carries important social implications in Japan. Seniors treating juniors (先輩 treating 後輩), bosses treating subordinates, and men treating women on dates are all traditional おごり customs. Accepting or declining an おごり requires social grace — refusing too firmly can be rude, but always expecting it can seem entitled. The phrase '今日は俺のおごりだよ' (It's my treat today) is a classic show of generosity.

- 初デートでおごりじゃなかったらちょっと冷めるって意見、賛否あるよね。 第一次约会不请客会有点减分，这种观点也是褒贬不一。Hay opiniones encontradas sobre si en la primera cita debería invitar uno, ¿verdad?첫 데이트에서 한턱을 안 내면 좀 식는다는 의견, 찬반이 있지.

✗ 잘못된 표현
- 「おごりだよね？」と催促するのはマナー違反 (Asking 'You're treating, right?' is a breach of manners — おごり should be offered, not demanded)主动催促说'你请客吧？'是不懂规矩的——请客应该是对方主动提出，而不是被要求Preguntar «¿Invitas tú, no?» es una falta de educación: la invitación debe ofrecerse, no exigirse.'당연히 쏘는 거지?'라고 재촉하는 건 매너 위반 — 오고리는 자발적으로 제안하는 것이지, 요구하는 것이 아니다
흔한 실수
- Forgetting to express gratitude after being treated — a thank-you message afterward (ごちそうさまでした) is expected and important in Japanese social etiquette
