room and boardroom and board
部屋代と食事代、生活費◆roomは「部屋」または「部屋代」のことであり、boardは「食卓」「賄い」「食事代」のことである。2語を合わせると、家賃と食費を合わせた費用の意味になる。日本語で言えば「賄い付きの下宿代」といったところだろう。アメリカの大学入学案内などを見るとstudent life(学生生活の案内)やtuition and fees(学費とその他の費用)の項目で必ず見かける表現である。なおboardingは「下宿」のことであるが、boarding schoolといえば、「全寮制の学校、寄宿学校」のことなので注意。 ・Studying at a college in the US these days could cost $30 thousand annually including room and board. : 最近はアメリカの大学に進学すると、生活費も含めて年間3万ドルぐらいかかることもある。 May 1, 2024, 12:03 PM user(a3d60b82e155)

Upper Svaneti [svɑnɛti] - Georgia
https://whc.unesco.org/en/list/709Preserved by its long isolation, the Upper Svaneti region of the Caucasus is an exceptional example of mountain scenery with medieval-type villages and tower-houses. The village of Chazhashi still has more than 200 of these very unusual houses, which were used both as dwellings and as defence posts against the invaders who plagued the region. 2024-05-01 WHS May 1, 2024, 6:29 AM cowpoke
