'Sanmitsu' buzzword of 2020
“3密”当选日本年度流行词
Japan's approach to tackling the coronavirus pandemic has become the country's buzzword for 2020.
日本应对新冠疫情的举措“3密”成为该国2020年度流行词。
Popularized by the Tokyo Governor Yuriko Koike and known in English as the 3Cs, "sanmitsu" refers to three situations the government has encouraged people to avoid to prevent the transmission of Covid-19: Confined spaces, crowded places and close-contact settings.
最早使用“3密”（英文为“3C”）一词的是东京都知事小池百合子，是指政府在新冠疫情防控中鼓励民众避免的三种情形——密闭、密集、密切接触。
The approach was adopted early on in the pandemic and has been credited with keeping cases and deaths in Japan comparatively low.
日本政府在疫情暴发初期就采取了“3密”举措，这一举措被认为有助于日本将新冠病例数和死亡数控制在较低水平。
Koike received the Buzzword Award from the contest's organizer, the publishing house Jiyukokuminsha, in an online ceremony.
“新词流行语大奖”由日本自由国民社主办，小池百合子在视频颁奖仪式上领取了这一奖项。
The top 10 candidates included Abenomask and the Go To travel campaign. The hit South Korean drama Crash Landing On You also made the shortlist.
除了“3密”，进入日本年度流行语前10的还有“安倍口罩”、“GoTo活动”、以及热门韩剧《爱的迫降》。
