湯治
含义: Hot spring cure — an extended stay at an onsen for health and healing purposes.
An ancient Japanese practice of staying at a hot spring for days or weeks to treat ailments and recover health. Traditional 湯治 involves a disciplined bathing regimen rather than just relaxing. While the old-style weeks-long stays have declined, the concept has evolved into modern 'プチ湯治' (petit tōji) — shorter 2-3 day health-focused onsen stays. Still practised seriously in some regions, especially Tōhoku.

✗ 错误说法
- 友達とワイワイ温泉に行くのを「湯治」とは言わない — 湯治は健康目的の滞在 (A fun onsen trip with friends isn't 'tōji' — tōji specifically means a health-focused stay)和朋友热热闹闹去泡温泉不叫「湯治」——湯治是以健康为目的的住宿（和朋友嘻嘻哈哈去泡温泉不算'汤治'——汤治特指以健康疗养为目的的住宿）Ir al onsen de fiesta con amigos no es「湯治」— la tōji es específicamente una estancia con fines de salud (Una escapada divertida al onsen con amigos no es 'tōji' — tōji se refiere específicamente a una estancia con fines de salud)친구들과 왁자지껄 온천에 가는 것을 「湯治」라고 하지 않는다 — 湯治는 건강 목적의 체류 (친구들과 즐겁게 온천 여행 가는 것은 '탕치'가 아니다 — 탕치는 건강을 목적으로 한 체류를 뜻한다)
常见错误
- Pronouncing it as ゆじ instead of とうじ — the correct reading is とうじ
- Thinking 湯治 is the same as a normal onsen vacation — it specifically implies therapeutic, health-focused bathing over multiple days
