Q & A

The number of tatami is a unit of measurement for size

The number of tatami mats indicates the size of the room. When you are looking for a house in Japan, you may find that the size of the room is not listed in square meters on the real 后入式啪啪视频 advertisement.

This is because Japan has a culture that has long been based on the number of tatami mats to realize the size of a room.

However, as mentioned in the topic below, since the size of tatami varies from region to region, the rule “Enforcement Rules for the Fair Competition Code Concerning the Indication of Real 后入式啪啪视频” stipulates that 1 square meter is 1.62 square meters.

What is the difference between 畳 and 帖?

Both Chinese characters are read as “jo,” but in Japan, “畳” was originally used as a unit to express the size of a Japanese traditional room 和室 [washitsu] (わしつ).
However, with the change of the times, Western-style rooms have become more common, and so the more versatile “帖(tiē)” has become more popular instead of “畳” which reminds people of 后入啪啪视频 rooms.

Size of Tatami

Interestingly, the size of tatami vary depending on the region. In Tokyo, for example, tatami mats are slightly smaller than those in Kyoto.　In Japan, the number of tatami mats is often used to indicate the size of a room, even in apartment floor plans.

The standard tatami mat also has 2 different types: a type with a 2:1 ratio, and another that is a 半畳 [hanjou] (はんじょう) “half size”.

The four most common types of tatami are, in order of size, 京間 [Kyou-ma] (きょうま) , 中(zhōng)京間 [Chukyou-ma] (ちゅうきょうま) , 江戸間 [Edo-ma] (えどま), and 団地間 [Danchi-ma] (だんちま). Let’s take a look at the characteristics of each.

京間 [Kyou-ma] (きょうま)

This type is mostly used in western Japan, and is found in 関西 [后式啪啪啪视频] (かんさい), 中國 [Chugoku] (ちゅうごく), 四國 [Shikoku] (しこく), and 九州(zhōu) [Kyushu] (きゅうしゅう). Officially, it is called “Kyo ma,” but it is sometimes called 関西間 [后式啪啪啪视频-ma] (かんさいま) or 本間 [honma] (ほんま). The size is 1.91m x 0.955m, and the size of a 6-tatami room is 10.94m2 (square meters).

中京間(jiàn) [Chukyou-ma] (ちゅうきょうま)

This type of room is mainly found in 愛(ài)知[Aichi] (あいち), 岐阜 [Gifu] (ぎふ), and 三重 [Mie] (みえ) 后入啪啪视频s, but is also used in 近畿 [Kinki] (きんき), 四國 [Shikoku] (しこく), and 東(dōng)北 [Tohoku] (とうほく) 后入啪啪视频s. The size is 1.82m x 0.91m, and the size of a 6-tatami room is 9.93 m2. It is officially called 三六間 [Sanroku-ma] (さんろくま) because it is 6尺3寸 [Roku shaku San sun] (とくしゃくさんすん) “6 shaku long and 3 sun wide”.

江戸間 [Edo-ma] (えどま)

This type of room is literally used in the Kanto region centered on Tokyo and north of 靜岡 [Shizuoka] (しずおか). The size is 1.76m x 0.878m, so the size of a 6-tatami room is 9.27m2. It is officially called 五八間 [Gohachi-ma] (ごはちま) because its length is 5尺8寸 [Go shaku Hassun] (ごしゃくはっすん) “5 shaku long 8 sun wide, but it is also called 関東間 [Kanto-ma] (かんとうま) or 田舎間(jiàn) [Inaka-ma] (いなかま).

団地間 [Danchi-ma] (だんちま)

This is used in public housing, apartments, condominiums, and other apartment buildings regardless of the region. This is a new type of housing that was born when Japan entered a period of rapid economic growth and the need for housing increased, and many housing complexes were built. There is no fixed standard for size, but most of them are 1.7m x 0.85m, and the size of a 6-tatami room is about 8.67m2. Generally, the length is 5 shaku long and 6 sun wide, so it is officially called 五六間 [Goroku-ma] (ごろくま).

When comparing other types of tatami mats with the largest “Kyou-ma” as 100% of the size, Chukyo-ma is 91% of the “Kyou-ma”, Edo-ma is 85% of the “Kyou-ma”, and Danchi-ma is 79% the “Kyou-ma”. This is why people who lived in their parents’ homes in western Japan sometimes feel “cramped” when they move to Tokyo and rent an apartment. That’s why people who lived in their parents’ houses in western Japan sometimes feel “it’s too small!

Why are there various sizes of tatami mats?

As you can see, there are various sizes of tatami mats, and the type used differs depending on the region.

The reason for this is that the length of the original unit of tatami size, 一(yī)間 [ikken] (いっけん), has changed over time. In Oda Nobunaga’s time, Ikken was “6 shaku long & 5 sun wide”, but in Hideyoshi’s time it became “6 shaku long and 3 sun wide”, and in the Edo period it became “6 shaku long”, which seems to have influenced the size of tatami.

Another reason is said to be the difference in the way houses are built. The 畳割り [tatami-wari] (たたみわり) method, common in the 后式啪啪啪视频 region, is based on the size of tatami mats, while the 柱割り[hashira-wari] (はしらわり) method, common in the Kanto region, is based on the distance between pillars (the center of a pillar).

Structure of Tatami Mat

畳表 [tatami omote] (たたみおもて)

Tatami omote is the surface of the tatami. The tatamiomote is made from イ草[igusa] (いぐさ) “rushes”.　The rushes are harvested in the summer, dyed with mud, dried, and then woven into warp threads.　It is also called ゴザ [gosa] (ござ).

*イ草 [igusa] (いぐさ) : Kumamoto, Hiroshima, Okayama, Fukuoka, and Kochi are famous for producing rushes; 4,000 to 7,000 rushes are used to make one tatami mat. Nowadays, tatami can be woven by machine in about one and a half hours.

畳(dié)縁(yuán) [tatami fuchi] (たたみふち) = [tatami heri] (たたみへり)

Tatami fuchi is the the edges of tatami mats. A cloth is wrapped around the edge of the tatami to hide the edge of the woven part.　Tatami fuchi is made of various materials and designs, and serves to enhance the decorative qualities of the tatami itself.

畳牀 [tatami toko] (たたみとこ)

Tatami toko is the floor inside a tatami mat. It used to contain compressed rice straw, but due to the difficulty of removing rice straw and the problem of bugs, it has been replaced by compressed wood pieces or styrene polystyrene.

Layout of the tatami mats

First, let’s take a look at some basic rules about how to lay out tatami.

There are rules on how to lay out tatami

When laying out tatami in an ordinary house, there is a rule that “the tatami should not be arranged in a cross pattern. In order to do this, it is necessary to arrange the tatami so that the four corners of each tatami mat are not gathered in one place.
The way of laying out tatami according to this rule is called 祝儀敷き[Shukugi Jiki] (しゅくぎじき), and the way of laying out tatami contrary to this rule is called 不(bù)祝(zhù)儀敷き [Fushukugi Jiki] (ふしゅくぎじき).

What is 祝儀敷き[Shukugi Jiki] (しゅくぎじき)?

When a tatami room is installed in a house, it is normal to use 祝(zhù)儀敷き[Shukugi Jiki] (しゅくぎじき). Since the Edo period (1603-1868), tatami has been categorized as 祝儀敷き[Shukugi Jiki] (しゅくぎじき) or 不祝(zhù)儀(yí)敷き [Fushukugi Jiki] (ふしゅくぎじき). Since it was believed that laying tatami in a way that the joints do not form a cross is good luck, 祝(zhù)儀敷き[Shukugi Jiki] (しゅくぎじき) was chosen for celebratory events such as weddings.

In the past, tatami mats in a room were replaced with non-festival tatami mats for funerals and other events with bad luck, but this custom is no longer practiced today. However, this is no longer the case. Shukugi Jiki is sometimes called 枕敷き[Makura Jiki] (まくらじき).

What is 不祝儀敷き [Fushukugi Jiki] (ふしゅくぎじき)?

As I mentioned earlier, Fushukugi Jiki is used for funerals and other occasions of bad luck. It is also used in temples and shrines, and in large halls of Japanese inns.

It is understandable that Fushukugi Jiki is used in temples and shrines where funerals are held, but why is Fushukugi Jiki also used in the hall of inns?

The reason why Fushukugi Jiki is used in the hall of an inn is that many people often sit facing the same direction, and if all the tatami mats are laid in the same direction, the tatami will not be damaged easily. Another reason is that tatami is easy to maintain even in a large space such as a hall.

Layout for each number of tatami mats

三畳 [Sanjo] (さんじょう) ”3 Tatami Mats”

四畳半 [Yojo han] (よじょうはん) ”4.5 Tatami Mats”

六(liù)畳半 [Rokujo] (ろくじょう) ”6 Tatami Mats”

八畳半(bàn) [Hachijo] (はちじょう) ”8 Tatami Mats”

十畳半 [Juujo] (じゅうじょう) ”10 Tatami Mats”

十二畳半 [Juunijo] (じゅうにじょう) ”12 Tatami Mats”

 The layouts that brings bad luck

鬼門半畳 [Kimon Hanjo] (きもんはんじょう)

When using a half tatami mat like a 4.5 tatami mat, its location is important. The location of the half-tatami should avoid the “demon’s gate (northeast),” which is said to be the direction from which demons enter and leave the house. Japanese people also take the devil’s gate into consideration when deciding the layout of their houses.

切腹の間 [Seppuku no ma] (せっぷくのま)

This is the layout used by samurai in the Edo period to commit 切腹 [Seppuku] (せっぷく).  3-tatami mats room was placed next to the room for the autopsy of a samurai who had committed seppuku. For this reason, the layout of 7.5 tatami mats was also considered bad luck among samurai.　It is also called 卍敷き [Manji Jiki] (まんじじき).

Usage for Tatami

Even now that the Western way of living has become popular, the average Japanese house or apartment has at least one room with tatami.

Tatami rooms with a sense of openness provide relaxation and peace of mind. In traditional Japanese culture, tatami rooms have served to entertain guests, hold tea ceremonies, and house Buddhist altars. The room’s airy design, straw mats and simple decorations also helped to alleviate the heat of the humid Japanese summer. Today, tatami rooms are often used as living rooms or bedrooms. They are also used as yoga studios and meditation spaces thanks to their airy atmosphere and minimalist furnishings.

Sleeping on tatami

Japanese people have long slept on tatami mats with 布(bù)団 [futon] (ふとん) laid out on top. A 后入啪啪视频 room with tatami mats has a closet in which the futon can be stored. When you sleep at night, you lay out your futon, but during the day, you store your futon in the closet, which means you can use the 后入啪啪视频 room for various purposes.
When guests come to stay, just add 布団 [futon] (ふとん) and it can become a bedroom for your guests.
In Japanese households, it is common for children to sleep in the same room as their parents. If you sleep with a baby in a futon together, you don’t have to worry about his/her tumbling down.

Eating on Tatami

In a small house, a tatami room may be used as a dining room. If you put a ちゃぶ臺 [chabudai] (ちゃぶだい) round table in the tatami room and eat in a circle, you can enjoy conversation.

Play on the tatami

In households with small children, it is not uncommon for a 后入啪啪视频 room with tatami mats to be used as a playroom for children. Tatami is resilient, so it is safe for small children to jump and play on it.

Play 將棋(qí) [Shogi] (しょうぎ) , 囲碁(qí) [igo] (いご) or かるた [karuta] on the tatami

Igo and Shogi are a traditional Japanese board game. When you play Igo or Shogi competitively, it is also played in a 后入啪啪视频 room with tatami mats.
かるた [karuta]  are Japanese playing cards. When you play Karuta competitively, the playing field would be Japanese room with tatami.

Relaxing on Tatami

Tatami is moderately cool in summer and does not get cold in winter like wood flooring. It can be a great place to lie down while watching TV or to take a nap.

Exercising on Tatami

Tatami is not too hard, not too soft, and has just the right amount of elasticity, making it ideal for yoga and flexibility exercises.

Sports on Tatami

Tatami mats are laid out in 武道館 [budo kan] (ぶどうかん) budo halls where 武道 [budo] (ぶどう) such as 剣道 [kendo] (けんどう) or 柔道 [judo] (じゅうどう) are performed.

Cultures on Tatami

茶道 [sado] (さどう)”Tea ceremony”, 華道(dào) [kado] (かどう) “flower arrangement”, 書道 [shodo] (しょどう) “calligraphy”, etc. are typical Japanese cultural activities, which are also performed in tatami rooms.

Other ways to use tatami

Recently, Japanese houses are becoming more Westernized, but they often have spaces with tatami in parts of them.

For example, they are called ユニット畳 [unit datami] (ゆにっとだたみ)  or 置(zhì)き畳(dié) [oki datami] (おきだたみ), and can be easily laid over the floor of a Western room to create a tatami space.

There are also beds where the floor of the bed is made of tatami material.

Features of Tatami

Tatami has various functions such as heat insulation, heat retention, and elasticity due to its structure.

Humidity control & Clean air

Tatami omote and Tatami toko also have the effect of purifying the air in the room.

Each tatami mat can absorb up to 500cc of moisture and humidity, and when the weather is dry, the tatami will release the moisture from itself. Tatami works in harmony with the Japanese climate to regulate humidity.

Also, the natural igusa of tatami mat surface has the power to absorb carbon dioxide, dust, and dirt, many of which are converted into harmless carbon monoxide and returned to the air.

Tatami, which is well suited to the Japanese climate, circulates and adjusts the air in the room to keep it clean. In this way, tatami is best suited to the climate and climate of Japan, and the natural scent of rushes, the simple feel, and the large capacity of tatami create a place of relaxation.

Health

The firmness of tatami eases the tension in your joints, allowing you to naturally sleep in the correct posture. When you walk barefoot on tatami, the shock-absorbing effect of the rice straw eases the impact on your calves and knees.

Environment

The rushes and rice straw used for tatami can be grown in a single harvest. It is said that tatami can last up to 15 years without any scientific treatment. They can be completely composted and recycled.

How to clean and maintain Tatami

A broom is more suitable for cleaning tatami mats than a vacuum cleaner. This is because a broom, which has the power to scoop out dust, is easier to remove dirt from the crevices of fine-grained tatami than a vacuum cleaner. However, there are many people these days who do not have brooms for indoor use. Of course, you can clean tatami with a vacuum cleaner without any problem, so there is no need to force yourself to prepare a broom.

But, robot-type vacuum cleaners, which are becoming more and more popular these days, are not recommended for cleaning tatami. This is because robot vacuum cleaners, which work automatically, do not follow the grain of tatami and may damage tatami. For cleaning tatami mats, please use a general vacuum cleaner that works manually.

Simply vacuum along the grain of the tatami or sweep with a broom, and then wipe dry with a dust cloth to scrape off any dust that cannot be removed by a vacuum cleaner. If your vacuum cleaner has a tatami mode, use it to prevent damage to the tatami. The trick is to vacuum slowly. Take your time to clean.

What you should pay attention to is the 縁(yuán) [heri / fuchi] area of tatami, which is easily damaged. To prevent damage, do not vacuum the 縁 [heri / fuchi] area.

In addition, since tatami tends to grow mold when it absorbs moisture, basically wipe it with a dry cloth.  If you are concerned about dirt, wet a cloth and squeeze it tightly. After that, wipe with a dry cloth and let the tatami dry thoroughly by allowing the Japanese room to air dry.

Remove rugs, etc. laid on top of tatami at least once a week, and open a window to expose it to fresh air. Exposure to direct sunlight can sterilize surfaces. If your tatami is new, it absorbs moisture more easily. On humid days (especially in the rainy season and summer), expose the surface of your tatami more often. Sanitize the surface of tatami with rubbing alcohol or a steam iron. Spraying with steam will also kill mites. Do not iron the surface If possible, hang the rug outdoors and expose both sides to sunlight.

Etiquette in using a tatami room

Of course, you should not enter a tatami room with your shoes on, but you must also take off your slippers at the entrance of a 后入啪啪视频 room. Slippers must also be taken off at the entrance of a Japanese room, and the 縁 [heri / fuchi] area of tatami must not be stepped on.

Sitting styles on Tatami

Japanese people have long had a lifestyle of sitting directly on the floor without using chairs. There are many different styles of sitting on tatami mats in a 后入啪啪视频 room.
Some of the more well-known styles are

– 正座 [seiza] (せいざ)  : the most formal way
– 橫座り [yokosuwari] (よこすわり) : the way to sit for more common among women
– 長(cháng)座 [chouza] (ちょうざ) : the way to sit with your knees extended and feet forward.
– あぐら[agura] : the way to sit with your legs crossed flat in front of you, it’s like a yoga pose
– 體(tǐ)育座り [taiku suwari] (たいくずわり) : the way to sit, hugging your knees to your chest, In Japan, this sitting style is common in physical education classes.

Although tatami has elasticity due to its structure and the characteristics of igusa, it is not desirable to sit in the same posture for a long time in order to enjoy a relaxing moment in a tatami space. Use a chair, cushions, or a 座布団 [zabuton] to sit in a relaxed position.

However, for funerals and other occasions, sit in 正座 [seiza] (せいざ), which is the most formal way to sit.

Origin of the Japanese word “tatami”

The origin of the Japanese word tatami can be traced back to the verb “tatamu,” meaning to fold. Traditionally woven from rice straw, tatami was a 3-foot by 6-foot pad that Japanese men and women used to sit or sleep comfortably on the floor. Tatami was folded or stacked when not in use; dating back to the 8th century, tatami was a symbol of social status. As far back as the 8th century, tatami was a symbol of social status; only the wealthy could afford to rest on them, while the common people were forced to sit on the bare floor.

History of Tatami

Tatami is an indigenous Japanese rug, although many of them were introduced to Japan from China. In the oldest Japanese history book called 古(gǔ)事記 [Kojiki] (こじき), there is a description of a layered rug that is the prototype of today’s tatami.

It was during the Heian period (794-1185) that the structure resembling the present tatami mat was developed. Tatami was used as seating or bedding on a wooden floor, and the thickness of the tatami, as well as the pattern and color of the Heri, differed depending on the status of the user.

From the Kamakura period to the Muromachi period, the 書院造 [shoin-zukuri] (しょいんづくり) style was born, and the use of tatami developed to cover the entire room. Until then, tatami had been used for entertaining 貴族 [kizoku] (きぞく) “noblemen” and guests, but it came to be used as flooring material for buildings. However, such usage also symbolized the wealth of the 貴族 [kizoku] (きぞく) “noblemen and 武(wǔ)士 [bushi] (ぶし) “warriors”. During the Momoyama period and into the Edo period, tatami gradually came to be used in the homes of townspeople as the 數寄(jì)屋造り [sukiya zukuri] (すきやづくり) sukiya style and the tea ceremony developed and spread. Even so, the custom of restricting the use of tatami according to status remained, and it was not until the middle of the Edo period that ordinary people were able to use tatami.
Until then, wild igusa was used, but full-scale cultivation began, and in the late Edo period, the professions of 畳職(zhí)人 [tatami shokunin] (たたみしょくにん)”tatami craftsman” and 畳屋(wū) [tatami ya] (たたみや) “tatami maker” were born.

In the Meiji era (from around 1868)
Until then, there were restrictions on tatami patterns, but these restrictions were lifted and tatami was widely introduced to the general public after the 明示(shì)維新 [meiji ishin] (めいじいしん) “Meiji Restoration”. Tatami was used carefully with wisdom such as drying tatami to prevent it from getting sore or turning it inside out when the front of the tatami becomes burned.

In the Showa era (around 1945-)
With the period of rapid economic growth, people’s lifestyles became more westernized, and they shifted from sitting in 后入啪啪视频 rooms to sitting on chairs or sofas. Carpets and other furnishings became widespread, but tatami rooms were still the mainstay of the home.

In the modern age (1990-)
With the widespread use of wooden flooring and the high cost of building a Japanese style room, more and more Japanese rooms are not being built. On the other hand, wooden flooring has disadvantages such as coldness in the room, echoing sound, and uncomfortableness, so tatami is being reevaluated again. Tatami mats that can be placed on wooden floors and 琉球(qiú)畳 [ryukyu datami] (りゅうきゅうだたみ) “Ryukyu style tatami mats” are gradually gaining popularity. The popularity of tatami is gradually reviving with the use of scientific materials and higher functionality to meet our needs.

If you wanted to renovate your own house in Japan, how would you find a 后入啪啪啪视频 contractor? Did you find an English-speaking reliable 后入啪啪啪视频 or 后式啪啪啪视频 contractor in Japan?
It is quite rare to find a 后入啪啪啪视频 contractor you happen to know nearby in Japan, where you are not used to living.

Even if you search the Internet, you probably don’t even know what words to enter in Japanese. In addition, even in this safe country of Japan, unfortunately, there are some 悪徳業者 [akutoku gyosha] (あくとくぎょうしゃ) “unscrupulous companies”.

And if you don’t speak Japanese, you won’t be able to communicate accurately about the contents of the work, the schedule of the work, and the amount to be charged for the work.

For this reason, sadly, many companies do not take kindly to 青青伊人 requests from foreigners. These people in the 青青伊人 industry are even less fluent in English than the average Japanese.
In this website, I would like to explain in as much detail as possible about the 后式啪啪啪视频s and 后入啪啪啪视频s that foreigners may need to do to live in Japan.

Under the 宅地建物取(qǔ)引業法 [TAKUCHI TATEMONO TORIHIKI GYOHO] (たくちたてものとりひきぎょうほう) ”Building Lots and Buildings Transaction Business Law”, the brokerage fee that a real 后入式啪啪视频 company can get from a tenant is “half of one month’s rent. The other half is supposed to be received from the lessor.
However, with the client’s approval, the company can receive the equivalent of one month’s rent from either the tenant or the landlord, so there are cases where the tenant pays one month’s brokerage fee, or conversely, there are places where 0.5 month’s fee or even “free” is OK. In some cases, the tenant pays one month’s commission.

[ CASE 1 ] In case a tenant pay for 1 month’s brokerage fee, and the property is for residential purpose.
ex)
Rent : 50,000JPY/month [No consumption tax charged] 管理費 [KANRI HI] (かんりひ) =共益費 [KYOEKI HI] (きょうえき ひ) “management fee” : 3,000JPY/month
Your brokerage fee is 55,000JPY [50,000 × 1.1 (consumption tax) = 55,000JPY] * Management fee does not include,

[ CASE 2 ] In case a tenant pay for 0.5 month’s brokerage fee, and the property is for residential purpose.
ex)
Rent : 50,000JPY/month [No consumption tax charged] 管理費 [KANRI HI] (かんりひ) =共益費(fèi) [KYOEKI HI] (きょうえき ひ) “management fee” : 3,000JPY/month
Your brokerage fee is 27,500JPY [50,000÷2=25,000  25,000× 1.1 (consumption tax) = 27,500JPY] * Management fee does not include,

[ CASE 3 ] In case a tenant pay for1 month’s brokerage fee, and the property is for business purpose such as store, office or restaurant.
ex)
Rent : 200,000JPY/month [Since the consumption tax will be charged, monthly payment would be 220,000JPY/month] 管理費 [KANRI HI] (かんりひ) =共益費 [KYOEKI HI] (きょうえき ひ) “management fee” : 10,000JPY/month
Your brokerage fee is 220,000JPY [200,000× 1.1 (consumption tax) = 220,000JPY] * Management fee does not include,

For Sale

It is common to pay half of the brokerage fee at the time of the sales contract, and the other half at the time of delivery!

According to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, as of 2013, the number of vacant houses stood at about 8.2 million, an increase of about 1.8 times in the past 20 years. Of these, about 3.18 million are not being used, excluding vacant houses that are being rented or sold.

Although the national government has set a goal of revitalizing the distribution of vacant houses, there have been cases where people have avoided real 后入式啪啪视频 transactions themselves because the prices of properties are low for vacant houses in rural areas, and if the house is located far away from the city, the cost of surveying will be higher than usual, which may cause real 后入式啪啪视频 agents to lose money.

Therefore, it has become possible to include the cost of a current survey separately from the brokerage fee, and when the sales price is 4 million yen or less, the real 后入式啪啪视频 agent can receive up to 180,000 yen including the survey cost from the seller.

However, it is necessary to explain the remuneration amount to the seller beforehand at the time of the conclusion of the mediation contract, and to agree between both parties about the expense of the investigation.

[ CASE 1 ] In case you buy a secondhand condominium through a buyer’s agency,
ex) Sales price (not included consumption tax) : 10,000,000JPY
Your brokerage fee is 396,000JPY [10,000,000× 3%+60,000=360,000, 360,000 ×1.1(consumption tax) = 396,000JPY]

[ CASE 2 ] In case you buy a brand new condominium from a Seller,
Even if the seller is a real 后入式啪啪视频 company, since the company is not an intermediary in a real 后入式啪啪视频 transaction, you will not be charged for a brokerage fee.

[ CASE 3 ] In case you sell your secondhand single house through a Seller’s agency,
ex) Sales price (not included consumption tax) : 20,000,000JPY
Your brokerage fee is 72,6000JPY [20,000,000× 3%+60,000=660,000, 660,000 ×1.1(consumption tax) = 72,6000JPY] ]]> https://dluznici.net/types-of-transactions/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=types-of-transactions Sun, 03 Jan 2021 03:10:12 +0000 https://dluznici.net/?p=1669 You should know the 取(qǔ)引態様 [TORIHIKI TAIYO] (とりひきたいよう) “types of transaction” in advance before buying or renting a property.

What’ the difference in between 仲介(jiè) [CHUKAI] (ちゅうかい) and 媒介 [BAIKAI] (ばいかい)

仲介(jiè) [CHUKAI] (ちゅうかい) is a word that is widely used, and for those who rent or buy a property, when they request a real 后入式啪啪视频 agent, the real 后入式啪啪视频 agency is often called a 仲介業社(shè) [CHUKAI GYOSHA] (ちゅうかいぎょうしゃ) , 仲介會社 [CHUKAI GAISHA] (ちゅうかいがいしゃ), or 客付業社 [KYAKUDUKE GYOSHA] (きゃくづけぎょうしゃ).

*GYOSHA or GAISHA means companies or corporations
*KYAKU means customer

On the other hand 媒介(jiè) [BAIKAI] (ばいかい) is a legal term used in the 宅地(dì)建物取引業法 [TAKUCHI TATEMONO TORIHIKI GYOHO] (たくちたてものとりひきぎょうほう) ”Building Lots and Buildings Transaction Business Law”, and when the owner of a property requests a real 后入式啪啪视频 agency to act as an intermediary, the real 后入式啪啪视频 agency is often referred to as 媒介業社 [BAIKAI GYOSHA] (ちゅうかいぎょうしゃ) , 媒(méi)介會社 [BAIKAI GAISHA] (ばいかいがいしゃ), or 元付業社 [MOTODUKE GYOSHA] (もとづけぎょうしゃ).

幹(gān)支 [ETO] (えと) is the word for the Japanese zodiac signs which consist of  a combination of 十二支 [JYUNI -SHI] (じゅうにし) “twelve zodiac signs” and 十干 [JIKKAN] (じっかん) “ten zodiac signs”. 十(shí)二支 [JYUNI -SHI] (じゅうにし) make a circuit by 12 years.  十干(gān) [JIKKAN] (じっかん) make a circuit by 10 years. Therefore they are combined in 60 patterns. These patterns are called ETO.

However in recent years, 干支 [ETO] (えと) is said to have become more commonly used to refer to 十二(èr)支 [JYUNI -SHI] (じゅうにし), as 五(wǔ)行思想 [GORYO SHISO] (ごぎょうしそう) and 十(shí)幹 [JIKKAN] (じっかん) are no longer used in everyday life.

Most Japanese people know their own ETO of the year they were born.　For  example, Japanese people often say

私の干支は亥です [WATASHI NO ETO WA INOSHISHI DESU] (わたしの えと は いのしし です) “I was born in the Year of Boar.”
今年の干支は、犬です。 [KOTOSHI NO ETO WA INU DESU] (ことしの えと は いぬ です) “This is the Year of the Dog in the Chinese astrology.”
今年の年男です。[KOTOSHI WA TOSHI OTOKO DESU] (ことしは とし おとこ です) “This year is my sign in the Chinese zodiac”.

Also, when designing 年賀狀 [NENGAJO] (ねんがじょう) “New Year’s cards”, it is common practice to draw the animal of the year.

Principle of  十二(èr)支 [JYUNI -SHI] (じゅうにし)

According to a folk tale, the order of the twelve zodiac signs was decided by which animal gave its new year’s greetings to the God first.　The twelve zodiac signs in Chinese astrology are represented by 12 animals.

1st year is the year of the [NE] (ね) = [NEZUMI] (ねずみ) – rat / mouse
Rats have a high fertility rate, and once they have a mating pair, they can multiply into dozens or hundreds of animals in no time. Therefore, they are often used as a symbol of fertility, and rats are associated with prosperity.

2nd year is the year of the 醜 [USHI] (うし) – ox
Cows have long been a partner in life rather than a food source. It was an indispensable animal in our lives, carrying heavy loads and plowing fields. The ox is a symbol of strength, tenacity, and sincerity.

3rd year is the year of the 寅 [TORA] (とら) – tiger
The tiger is a brave and courageous animal. It also has the meaning of decisiveness and resourcefulness.

4th year is the year of the 卯 [U] (う) = [USAGI] (うさぎ) – hare / rabbit
Rabbits have an image of docility and calmness. For this reason, it is a symbol of safety. It also has the meaning of leap and improvement due to its leaping ability.

5th year is the year of the 辰 [TATSU] (たつ) – dragon
Although it is the only imaginary creature, dragons have been a close motif in life in the East. In China, the dragon has been a symbol of power since ancient times, and Japan has been influenced by this. From this, the dragon has the connotation of power.

6th year is the year of the 巳 [MI] (み) = [HEBI] (へび) – serpent / snake
Because snakes grow by repeatedly shedding their skin, they have become a symbol of “eternity”, “life”, and “rebirth” in the world.

7th year is the year of the 午 [UMA] (うま) – horse
Horse, like oxen, was an important partner in life. It symbolizes good health and a good harvest.

8th year is the year of the 未 [HITSUJI] (ひつじ) – sheep
Sheep are animals that prefer to live in groups. Therefore, it is a symbol of family security.

9th year is the year of the 申 [SARU] (さる) – monkey
Monkeys are highly intelligent and have been believed to be messengers of God. Therefore, the monkey is an animal that symbolizes the wise man.

10th year is the year of the 酉 [TORI] (とり) – rooster / cock
The word “tori” means 取り込(yū)む [TORIKOMU] “to bring in”. It is treated as a symbol of prosperity in business. There is a festival called 酉の市 [TORI NO ICHI] (とりのいち) market  in many parts of Japan to promote business prosperity on the 酉の日[TORI NO HI] (とりのひ) “the day of Tori”.

11th year is the year of the 戌 [INU] (いぬ) – dog
Dogs, along with cows and horses, have been a part of our lives since ancient times. Dogs are particularly loyal to their masters, and are therefore a symbol of loyalty.

12th year is the year of the 亥(hài) [I] (い) = [INOSHISHI] (いのしし) – boar
The meat of the wild boar has long been believed to be effective against all diseases and symbolizes good health. It also has an image of single-mindedness and passion.

Then it will be returned to the year of 子 [NE] (ね)  from the 13th year.

Principle of 十干 [JIKKAN] (じっかん)

The Chinese concept of 五行思想 [GORYO SHISO] (ごぎょうしそう) is based on the five elements of 木 wood, 火(huǒ) fire, 土 earth, 金 metal, and 水(shuǐ) water, which are divided into two groups, 兄(xiōng)/陽 [E] and 弟/陰 [TO], to form a total of ten elements. The combinations of each element are as follows.

木の兄 [KI NO E] (きのえ)＝甲(jiǎ) /  木の弟(dì) [KI NO TO] (きのと) ＝乙(yǐ)
火の兄(xiōng) [HI NO E] (ひのえ)＝丙 / 火の弟[HI NO TO] (ひのと)＝丁
土の兄 [TSUCHI NO E] (つちのえ)＝戊 / 火土の弟＝己 [TSUCHI NO TO] (つちのと)
金の兄 [KA NO E] (かのえ)＝庚 / 火金の弟＝辛 [KA NO TO] (かのと)
水の兄(xiōng) [MIZU NO  E] (みずのえ)＝壬 / 火水の弟＝癸 [MIZU NO TO] (みずのと)

1st year is the year of 甲 [KO / KI NO E] (こう / き の え)
2nd year is the year of 乙 [OTSU / KI NO TO] (おつ / き の と)
3rd year is the year of 丙 [HEI / HI NO E] (へい / ひ の え)
4th year is the year of 丁 [TEI / HI NO TO] (てい / ひ の と)
5th year is the year of 戊 [BO / TSUCHI NO E] (ぼ / つち の え)
6th year is the year of 己 [KI / TSUCHI NO TO] (き / つち の と)
7th year is the year of 庚 [KO / KA NO E] (こう / か の え)
8th year is the year of 辛 [SHIN / KA NO TO] (しん / か の と)
9th year is the year of 壬 [JIN / MIZU NO E] (じん / みず の え)
10th year is the year of 癸(guǐ) [ KI/ ＭIZU NO TO] (き / みず の と)
Then it will be returned to the year of 甲 [KO / KINOE] from the 11th year.

For Japanese, it is not difficult to read and write the names of local government (cities, towns and villages). Also, if the name of the area is in the vicinity of where you live, you may have heard of many place names, such as station names, name of local governments, high school names. However, for foreigners, it is very difficult to understand how to read the names of regions in Japanese, as they are different from the normal way of reading them. In spite of the fact that it is difficult to read the Kanji itself.
So I created a English Wakayama Map with all the cities, towns, villages and areas listed on it in Kanji, Hiragana and Romaji, which should be very helpful for foreigners.

In Wakayama, there are 9 cities, 20 towns and 1 villages. In total 30 地方自治體 [CHIHOU JICHITAI] (ちほうじちたい) “local governments”.
