温泉
含义: Hot spring bath — both the natural geothermal springs and the bathing facilities built around them.
While technically a standard word, 温泉 functions as a cultural keyword in travel conversation. Saying 温泉行きたい is one of the most common travel-related phrases in Japanese. It encompasses everything from luxury resort ryokan to rustic outdoor baths (露天風呂). Going to an 温泉 is a quintessential Japanese leisure activity, associated with relaxation, seasonal trips, and bonding with friends or partners.

✗ 错误说法
- スーパー銭湯を「温泉」と呼ぶのは厳密には違う — 天然温泉じゃないと温泉とは言えない (Calling a super sentō an 'onsen' isn't technically correct — true onsen must use natural hot spring water)严格来说不能把大型浴场（スーパー銭湯）叫做「温泉」——不使用天然温泉水的就不算真正的温泉（把大众浴场叫做'温泉'严格来说是不对的——真正的温泉必须使用天然地热泉水）Llamar「温泉」a un super sentō no es técnicamente correcto — un verdadero onsen debe usar agua de manantial natural (Llamar 'onsen' a un super sentō no es técnicamente correcto — un verdadero onsen debe usar agua de manantial termal natural)슈퍼센토를 「温泉」이라고 부르는 것은 엄밀히는 다르다 — 천연 온천수가 아니면 온천이라고 할 수 없다 (대형 목욕탕을 '온천'이라고 부르는 것은 엄밀히 맞지 않다 — 진짜 온천은 천연 온천수를 사용해야 한다)
常见错误
- Confusing 温泉 (natural hot spring) with 銭湯 (public bathhouse) — they are different, though some 銭湯 use natural spring water
- Not knowing onsen etiquette — wash thoroughly before entering, no swimsuits, tattoo restrictions at many facilities
