Good morning, good day, and good evening!.

Let's look at some "Japanized" English today. We think Berlitz WordMaster pages like these are some of the most interesting we'll be sending you.

CIGARETTE / TOBACCO シガレット／たばこ

In English, the word for タバコ is cigarette. We use the English word tobacco to mean the dried leaves inside cigarettes.

日本語でいう「タバコ」は、英語では cigarette と呼びます。tobacco という言葉は、「タバコ」の中に入っている乾燥させた葉のことを意味します。

1. My father smokes two packs of cigarettes a day.

2. They use the highest quality tobacco in these cigars. It's grown in Cuba.

Enjoy the day, and don't forget to look for us over the weekend!
