‘Jokyo Monogatari’

Overcoming the potholes on the road to success

So many Japanese have relocated to Tokyo over the years to make their fortunes — or simply to escape rural poverty — that there is a word to describe the act: jo￣kyo￣ (which the dictionary defines as “proceeding to the capital [Tokyo]“). Something similar in English would be “New York” as a verb: “I New Yorked in 1992 and have lived there ever since.” The Big Apple looms large in the American imagination, but not that large.

New Yorkが動詞化していますね。どうやらＮＹに移り住むことを表しているようです。このような使い方ができることを知りませんでした。（Hatahata)
