=================================
「容易じゃない」や「ものすごく大変」は英語で?
=================================
片付け嫌いな子供に部屋の片づけをさせたり、なかなか恋人のことを話したがらない友人から話を聞き出したりするなど、大変な思いをして相手に何かをさせることを英語ではどのように表現するのでしょうか?
--------------------------------------------------
Like pulling teeth
→ 「困難を極める / とても大変 / 容易ではない」
--------------------------------------------------
「It's like pulling teeth」は、人に何かをさせるのが非常に難しかったり、大変であることを表す場合によく用いられる比喩表現です。直訳すると「歯を抜くように」で、歯科医が患者の歯を抜くのに苦労している姿をイメージしたら分かりやすいでしょう。この表現は、特に相手が乗り気でないことをやらせたり、相手から情報を引き出すのが極めて困難である状況で使われることが多いです。
✔「Hassle(面倒なこと、困ったこと)」も同様の意味。使い方は関連記事「面倒くさい」を英語で言うと・・・をご覧ください。
<例文>
It's like pulling teeth getting him to clean his room.
(彼に部屋の掃除をさせるのは容易ではありません。)
Getting him to run in the morning is like pulling teeth.
(彼に朝ランをさせるのはとても大変です。)
It was like pulling teeth trying to get her to talk about her boyfriend.
(彼女に彼氏のことを話させるのは容易ではありませんでした。)
Getting my visa was such a hassle.
(ビザを取得するのはとても面倒だった。)
〜会話例1〜
A: Is Lisa working hard in her English class?
(リサさんは英語のレッスンを頑張っていますか?)
B: She's an excellent student but it's like pulling teeth trying to get her to speak.
(優秀な生徒ですが、英語を声に出して話させるのがとても大変です。)
〜会話例2〜
A: Do you think I should rent a car when I go to LA?
(ロスに行く時はレンタカーを借りた方がいいと思う?)
B: The public transportation in LA is a huge hassle. I would definitely get a rental car.
(ロスの公共交通機関はかなり面倒だよ。絶対にレンタカーをしたほうがいいよ。)

′′ It can't make money anymore. Uncle is adjusting to change to be a delivery person to survive
Rights Chai close by
Taxi driver at 72 years old. Dress up and clean.
Seeing uncle at the distribution center. Samut Prakan
Uncle told me with tears that I'm troubled. It's very difficult now. Because the rental car is 300 baht per day. I still don't have it for you.
So I come to try the package delivery job after seeing the group tag the name. Taxi has been announced to help distribute parcels during this time.
Because the amount of Kerry parcels increased by 1.2-1.5 million pieces per day. From the beginning of 1 million pieces
If uncle can do it
I will earn 500-800 baht per day.
Which depends on each person's expertise. Uncle opened the money target for you to see. There are 200 Baht. I don't know that I will Passenger?
If uncle sends parcels and gets money here. Spinning to pay for rent, car, rice and breath for another day...

I want to share with you a disturbing statistic I came across the other day...
In my city, Vancouver, there are 70 neighborhoods. And out of those 70 neighbourhoods, do you know how many of them minimum-wage workers can afford to live in?
It’s a very easy number to remember…
ZERO.
And I’m not talking about buying a condo or a property…
I’m not talking about renting in the city centre or renting some 2 or 3 bedroom apartment somewhere...
I’m just talking about renting ONE single bedroom apartment.
According to The Star Vancouver - minimum wage workers can’t afford a one bedroom apartment ANYWHERE in Vancouver.
And minimum-wage workers would need up to DOUBLE what they currently make to afford a one bedroom rental in most parts of Vancouver.
And as housing keeps becoming more expensive, it’s going to get worse.
So how do they survive?
Well, they have to get creative.
Some live very far out of town (2 hours away by car) and they commute for hours every day.
Some team up and pool their resources together and get as many roommates as possible.
And others just work two full-time jobs…
Anything they can do to make it.
And...
Minimum Wage Isn’t Just A Problem In Vancouver
Toronto, the largest city in Canada, has the same problem.
And in the U.S., there’s NO single state where a minimum-wage 40-hour worker can afford any comfortable two-bedroom apartment...
It’s really bad.
If you’re going through this like I did.
Or if you know someone that is going through this, let me just tell you right now...
You have to do something about this FAST. Because it’s not going to get easier.
I remember when I was working a minimum wage job like yesterday.
People didn’t appreciate me. I was replaceable. And the longer I worked - the harder it became to break out.
The debt started to build up.
I had to sleep on the floor in a sleeping bag while my mom slept on the bed.
And we were even afraid at times of getting kicked out of our apartment.
...with no idea where we would go.
And that was almost two decades ago! Back when rent was cheaper.
So I can’t imagine how people are still making it happen today.
This is serious... and it’s getting more difficult every. single. month.
Getting a 4-year education isn’t enough now. Getting two jobs only fixes this problem in the short term.
And if you already have a family or want to start one... pooling with other minimum wage workers won’t work either.
You need something else.
A competitive advantage.
Now it’s going to take you some work. And I don’t know if this is going to work for everyone…
But this complimentary training I’ve put together may just be what you need to start protecting yourself and your future...
Tens of thousands have taken this training and many more are going through it.
👉Type the codeword “training” to get started👈
Even if you don’t have to personally deal with minimum wage struggles at this point…
Housing is just getting more and more expensive. And inflation is growing faster than most incomes are...
So minimum-wage workers are not the only ones in trouble anymore either!
Teachers, nurses, and even firefighters are finding it harder and harder to live in the city...
If you’re not rapidly growing - you’re falling behind.
Now is the time to do something about it.
👉If you want me to send this training to you, put “training below”.👈

I've always wanted to see the churches of Nam Dinh. In the past heading towards Ninh Binh on the road, the familiar towers and arches of massive gothic style French influenced churches would peak from beyond the horizon, sparking my curiosity. Later on, I saw many pictures of the online. So I knew that one day I had to go see them for myself. And it happened.
The Hanoi Bus Station has quite a few buses in Nam Dinh's direction. In fact, every 15 to 30 minutes or so. I recommend going to a ticket office and buying a ticket first, but be warned that these mini buses still might take their time leaving to pick up more passengers along the way. Remember that. And the buses can be quite hot too.
About 2 and a half hours later I made it to Nam Dinh, got into a cab and checked into my hotel. I rested for about an hour because I was completely exhausted from the early morning flight and the time on the bus. I tried to rent a car and driver with two rental places and they were all either busy or gave some outrageous number. So I contacted the same taxi guy that dropped me off. Then I realized that all of the churches were in the rural province of Nam Dinh and not in the city. This was a shocker because I was planning to see at least ten. In the back of my mind, I kept thinking that they were next to each other, similarly to how Ho Nai in Bien Hoa's mega churches are. I was more than wrong.
All the major churches are far apart from each other. You can ride a motorbike for sure, but it'll take you all day. I only had about 4 hours or so before sunset. So because I didn't know for sure where I was going and the driver wasn't an expert on the churches, we just opted to use the meter instead, which at the end of it was 1.8 million Dong. The first few churches weren't that far from each other, but they weren't on the main road. They are all tucked in little communities off of the side. The last one called Hai Ly or the Ruined Church as the locals call it was quite a ways away from all the other churches.
I was disappointed that I couldn't see more churches. I was also disappointed that pictures made them look more grand and beautiful. But that's photoshop for you. There was also the fact that many of the churches were given a new coat of paint. You see, that's the problem and the double edged sword. These are active churches that people use. So naturally, they have to restore them and improve them. And a new fresh coat of paint is a part of that. Though, I personally would just have left it alone. But that's not the local mindset.
So are the churches still worth checking out? Yes. Give yourself from morning to evening to properly explore them. Some of them are stunning. Their grand size made it impossible to film them completely. The people in the churches were so nice. From my experiences of traveling, church volunteers and visitors have always been nicer to me than temple people. Many of the church construction workers worked for free in the blazing sun. Some of them even invited me to drink some tea with them. They were proud to show off their work, and rightfully so. These churches were beautiful.
The night concluded with a meal of roasted and boiled ducks. The restaurant where I got the food from didn't have any tables left and it was just too loud and dark to make a proper video, so I bought the food back to my hotel restaurant instead. Despite being a draining day, I slept like a baby on the hard rock of a bed and enjoyed my time running around Nam Dinh a lot.
If you're in Ninh Binh. There is absolutely no reason to not stop by Nam Dinh for a day, especially if you believe in Jesus or if you can appreciate Gothic architecture. Nam Dinh is only 40 minutes or so from Ninh Binh after all.
