意思
To transport bags or belongings.
文化背景
Offering to carry bags is a key part of 'Omotenashi' (hospitality). It is expected in hotels and high-end ryokans, but also common among friends. The 'Kohai' (junior) is culturally expected to offer to carry heavy items for the 'Senpai' (senior) during business trips or outings. While gender roles are changing, it is still often seen as 'gentlemanly' for a man to offer to carry a woman's heavy shopping bags. On crowded trains, carrying bags on your back (backpacks) is considered rude. People are expected to carry them in their hands or put them on the overhead rack.
