皆様、お疲れ様です。
北家です :)
夏休みをいかがお過ごしですか。
私は相変わらず親戚周りに奔走しております笑
家族が増えれば増えるほど、人間関係もより複雑になりすね。
これからもHappiness only true when shared を心に精進して参ります :)
本日は会話練習用のオリジナルダイアローグの第三弾です。
前回よりも更にレベルが上がっています。
Dialogue between a Japanese person (J.P.) and a foreign couple (F.C.) in a café
J.P.:
Good morning.
Are you visiting Japan?
F.C.:
Yes, we are from Helsinki in Finland and visiting Japan for a fortnight.
J.P.:
That sounds nice.
Thank you for coming to Japan.
When did you arrive?
F.C.:
We arrived at Haneda yesterday evening.
We will stay in Tokyo for five nights and then go to Kyoto for four nights.
After that, we will travel to Hiroshima and Fukuoka for two nights each before returning for one night to Osaka, from where we will fly out to Frankfurt.
J.P.:
What have you planned for Tokyo?
F.C.:
Quite a lot.
Today we are going to explore Asakusa and go up Tokyo Skytree before travelling by boat down the Sumida River to Hamarikyu.
Tomorrow we plan to go to Yokohama for the day and visit places like Minato Mirai and Chinatown.
On the day after tomorrow, we will make a day trip to Hakone.
On our last day here, we plan among other things to visit Meiji Jingu, the scramble crossing in Shibuya and Shinjuku.
J.P.:
Wow!
You sound very busy.
Can I help you with any advice or information?
F.C.:
That’s very kind.
Thank you.
We are basically O.K., I think, but would appreciate advice on delicious and reasonably placed restaurants to have dinner at in Tokyo.
J.P.:
What sort of food would you like to try?
F.C.:
Tomorrow night, we plan to have dinner in Chinatown before coming back to our hotel near here but, on the other three nights we have here, we would like to try sushi one night, yakitori on another, and an izakaya on the third.
J.P.:
Oh, I know really nice and reasonable restaurants for all those restaurant types near here.
Let me send links for all three restaurants to your mobile phone.
F.C.:
That would be very helpful.
Thank you.
文法ポイント:
文法的時制は過去VS現在/未来に対して、文脈的時制は過去VS現在VS未来です。
未来の話をする際の一般的な文法のチョイスは、現在形、現在進行形、be going to、法助動詞 (will等)です。
発音ポイント:
子音が連続で来る場合は、一つ目を発音出来ません。
是非練習してみて下さい :)
次回に続きます!
