How to Use It
사용 참고사항
The word is neutral and commonly used in all registers. It is a standard household item. No special formality is required when using this word.
자주 하는 실수
Some learners might confuse it with 'toothbrush holder'. Ensure you use the term only for the brush itself. Pronunciation should be clear on the 'ha' and 'burashi'.
Tips
Replace your toothbrush regularly
Change your toothbrush at least once a month. Frayed bristles are less effective at cleaning plaque.
Do not brush too hard
Brushing with too much force can damage your gums and tooth enamel. Use gentle, circular motions.
Japanese oral hygiene culture
In Japan, it is common to brush teeth after lunch even at work or school. Many people carry portable toothbrush sets.
어원

문화적 맥락
Japanese people are very conscious of oral hygiene. Carrying a toothbrush to school or the office is a widespread habit.
암기 팁
Think of 'Ha' (tooth) and 'Burashi' (brush). It is literally a tooth-brush.
자주 묻는 질문
3 질문一般的には1ヶ月に一度の交換が推奨されています。毛先が開いてくると汚れを落とす力が弱まるためです。
「歯ブラシ」は道具そのものを指す名詞です。「歯磨き」は歯を磨くという行為自体を指す言葉です。
どちらも正しく使えば汚れは落ちます。電動は短時間で効率的に磨けますが、手動は力の加減を自分で調整しやすいという利点があります。
