10月のテーマは前置詞③
👉10月も引き続き前置詞の学習です。
Lesson 137 from のイメージ
👉 from のイメージ▶︎「起点から離れる – 〜から」
Opening
Roza
▶︎ Hey, everyone. Akino Roza here. Let’s get started.
Chris
▶︎ Chris McVay here. Yeah, let’s go!
Dialogue で
① You‘re just staring out the window.
👉さあ、ここに出てきた You’re just staring out the window. という文。
この文で使われた進行形は「〜してばかりいる」という相手の気になる
習慣について述べるタイプの進行形ですのでご注意くださいね。
② I was just thinking about my days in Tokyo.
👉さあ、I was thinking about 〜という進行形が出て来ましたね。
think「思う」という意味では、進行形になりませんが、
ここでは「考える」think about「よく考えていました」という、そうした
内容になっています。
③ I miss Japan.
👉そして、ここでは I miss Japan. miss という重要動詞が出て来ましたね。
So what kind of nuance does this “miss” carry?
Roza
▶︎ So I think the word “miss” is a little bit difficult to understand in Japanese,
because there isn’t an equal translation of it. But think about when you miss
the train, or you miss an opportunity, you want that train back, you want that
opportunity. Same thing with Japan, or I miss you. I want you back, I want
Japan back!
Chris
▶︎ So it’s interesting that “miss a train” can be the same as “miss someone.”
That link is there, right?
Roza
▶︎ Yeah.
Chris
▶︎ I think of many of our listeners will be interested in that.
④ One thing is that many Japanese people can’t tell good Indian food
from bad Indian food.
👉「１つには」- One thing is 〜. このフレーズしっかり覚えてくださいね。
Practice
Chris
▶︎ Hey, guys. It’s practice time. Let’s go.
This time we’re looking at “from.” The basic image of “from” is one of distance.
So there’s a movement. You have a starting point, and shu… another point.
So the distance between those. With that in mind. let’s practice.
Roza
▶︎ And remember to think in English.
Chris
▶︎ Our flight leaves from Terminal 2.
It’s very clear, isn’t it? You have the starting point to Terminal 2.
And you go away. A distance is involved here.
・Our flight leaves from Terminal 2.
Try.
・Where are you from?
・I live far away from my office.
Roza
▶︎ Continuing on.
・Cheese is made from milk.
Here too, there’s a distance between the milk state and the cheese state,
right? There’s a process involved. So that’s why “from” is perfect here.
One more time.
・Cheese is made from milk.
Chris
▶︎ Continuing on!
・from my point of view
・judging from 〜
・suffer from 〜
・from what I hear
Roza
▶︎ And the last one.
・Many Japanese people can’t tell good Indian food from bad Indian food.
Chris
▶︎ Great, guys. From my point of view, you did brilliantly.
Roza
▶︎ I’ll have to agree with you, Chris. That was excellent.
Ending
Onishi
▶︎ So it’s important to tell the truth.
To be honest, I can’t tell good medaka from bad medaka.
They are all cute. How about you, Chris?
Chris
▶︎ Well, I can’t tell good wind from bad wine.
Roza
▶︎ Chris, it’s important to tell the truth.
You know, that’s a lie.
Chris
▶︎ You got me there.
