Mondai 5

(1)

私は家の近くを毎日散歩していますが今日はいつもと違う道歩いてみましたぶらぶら歩いていると　どこからか花のいいにおいがしてきました　知っている香りなのに　それがどんな花のか思い出せませんでした　でも　そのとき自然に昔住んでいた家ことを思い出しました

I take a walk near my house every day, but today I walked on a different road than usual. When I was walking around, I smelled a good smell of flowers from somewhere. I knew the scent, but I couldn't remember what kind of flower it was, but at that time, I remembered the house where I lived naturally in the past.

それは田舎の広い庭がある家でした　祖父と祖母も一緒に住んでいて賑やかな毎日隣の家の明子ちゃんという女の子と家の裏にある山に行ったり近くの川に行ったりしてよく一緒に遊びました懐かしい思い出です

It was a house with a large garden in the countryside. My grandfather and grandmother also lived together, and it was lively every day. I went to the mountains behind the house with a girl named Akiko in the next house and went to the nearby river, and we often played together. It's a nostalgic memory.

どうしてあの時昔住んでいた家のことを思い出したのか ,私は不思議でした家に帰ったから昔の写真や祖父祖母の写真を見ながらしばらく考えましたそして昔住んでいた家の庭には春になると白くて小さなかわいい花がたくさん咲いていたことを思い出しましたその花は今日道を歩いていたときのあの花と同じ香りだったのです

Why did you remember the house you used to live in at that time?

I was curious. When I got home, I thought about it for a while while looking at old photos and photos of my grandfather and grandmother, and I remembered that there were a lot of white, small and cute flowers blooming in the garden of the house where I used to live in the past. The flower was the same scent as that flower when I was walking on the road today.
