Konnichiwa,
How are you? I hope you are in a pink of health when you are reading this post. If you are not feeling well, it is better for you to just stay at your home and avoid from meeting people. if you are doing so, why don't you read this blog in order to get some knowledge. also, who knows that you will feel better after reading this blog. Knowledge increase, pain decrease.
Every person in this world need a home. Home is place we get shelter from heat and cold. So, if you have a home, you should be thankful even your house is small because there are so many people out there don't even have a home. so, please be thankful to god because give you a house to avoid from heat and cold.
Okay, that's all my lecture.
So today, we will learn about house and home.
Firstly, when you want to describe your house to other people, you should know what is your house look like.
On this blog, I can post about Japanese and Malaysian home style only because of lack of my information about home in other country. Sumimasen.
Aparto (Apartment)
These are mainly two-story buildings constructed from light-weight steel, wood, or
mortar, and house 4 to 8 households. Some of them share a toilet and/or have no
bath.
Mansion (Apartment)
In Japan, housing which is bigger than an Aparto and built with reinforced concrete
is called a Mansion. The insulation is better than an Aparto, and privacy is better.
Some have a custodian living on the first floor or others have an underground
parking lot.
Detached house
Detached houses have recently been designed using a mixture of Japanese and
Western styles. Some of them have a garden.
There are several rental houses designed especially for non-Japanese' but not many.
In Malaysia, we have,
Terrace House ( リンクハウス ) [rinku hausu]
Once considered the mainstay of the Malaysian housing market, terrace houses were favoured due to their landed qualities and ease of renovation. Terrace houses usually feature a small yard in front or behind the house which could be extended to extend the built up of the entire house. The houses have since fallen out of favour in major states due to rapid urbanisation.
Bungalow or Detached House ( バンガロ ー ) [bangaroo]
Considered a luxury amongst Malaysians. Stating you owned a bungalow was typically a license to brag among neighbours back in the old days. The original term bungalow was used to refer to houses built during the colonial era but local real estate lingo had incorporated it to include detached houses and also mansions. Bungalows are characterised by it being a standalone house on its own land.
Semi D or Semi Detached House ( セミーディー ) [semi dii]
Semi D’s have been gaining a bit of a standing in Malaysia as it has been the focus of many major developers in Malaysia. Semi D are joined on one side to another property making a single building. Homes are said to mirror each other in terms of setup. It is also commonly referred to as a duplex.
Apartments/Flat ( フラット ) [furatto]
The flat is perhaps the most basic setup one can go for in Malaysia. They are typically for those who are looking for a budget. Flats, though affordable in Malaysia have a reputation to be poorly managed and have certain security concerns.
Condominiums ( コンドミニアム ) [kondominiamu]
A target of the modern urban crowd in the cities. Major states in Malaysia have seen the rise of condominiums through rapid urbanization. Condominiums typically feature better facilities and security compared to flats. The main distinction is that condominiums typically charge a monthly or yearly upkeep fee in order to keep their keep their facilities in order.
