extracurricular 復習

もうすぐで3月11日の震災から7年が経ちます。福島県では、原発の影響で避難している成人式を迎える人々に中学校で過ごしていた時の様子を収めたDVDをプレゼントするようです。

FUKUSHIMA (Jiji Press) — The municipal government of Futaba, Fukushima Prefecture, sends DVDs containing junior high school life memories to people who reach adulthood after having to leave the town without receiving yearbooks due to the March 2011 nuclear accident.

Under a memorabilia program launched last year, a DVD with contents such as the current state of the town and school life photos was provided to about 70 youngsters who celebrated the Coming-of-Age ceremony in January this year, ahead of the seventh anniversary of the accident.

Futaba, one of the host municipalities of Tokyo Electric Power Company Holdings Inc.’s Fukushima No. 1 nuclear power plant, the site of the triple meltdown accident, is still fully covered by a central government evacuation advisory.

Students at a junior high school in the town were in the middle of extracurricular club activities when a 9.0-magnitude earthquake occurred on the afternoon of March 11, 2011, triggering the massive tsunami that led to the nuclear accident, the worst ever in the nation.

気になった単語はextracurricular/ɛ̀kstrəkɚɪ́kjəlɚ/です。『ジーニアス英和辞典』(第4版,大修館書店)には｢課程外の,強化外の｣や｢本務外の,日課外の｣とありました。

調べてみるとextraとcurriculum/kəríkjʊləm,kəˈɹɪk.jə.ləm/に分けて考えて、｢カリキュラム外の｣という意味になることが分かりました。(rain)
