Onine lesson 9

This is my 9th online lesson!
Today's members are 3 (two guys and myself).
I have been only a woman in this class for weeks.

A teaches his young co-workers sales skills because he is a sales manager.
I think he is a good teacher.

These are useful expressions: encourage, support and motivate.

According to what he said, it is important to make your family happy by achieving your goal.

After that, I try to explain what my name means.
My name is Noriko. It's same as Prince Kiko in Japanese Kanji, but it's different from hers in sound.
Nori means "origin" or "century," and "Ko"means a child. I was the first child for my parents. My father named me "Noriko" because I was his first child.

Actually, I didn't like my name when I was a child. It was too simple and ordinary name, so I wanted to be named such as Midori and Yukiko. Just like Anne of Green Gables.

Then we try to make a sentence.

自分と違った価値観の人と話をすることで議論が深まる

When I talk with a person who has a different opinion we can enjoy better discussion.(mine)
I like to speak with people of different value because I can find new thinking.
It is important to talk with persons who have different thoughts you can go to a new world with them.

反対意見を述べる時の表現

I don't agree
I disagree
I'm sorry but
I'm afraid...
I understand your point, but
You could say that, but
I can see where you are coming from, but ..

Which is better, traditional names or modern names?

I think that traditinal Japanese names is better, because they mostly have good meanings.
Instead, very modern Japanese names are meaningless.
For foreigners, it is easier to pronounce mordern names than traditional ones. But when I see morden names, I often think like that, "what do those names mean?  They are meaningless."

A has a daughter whose name is Yuika.
Yui means unique and Ka means summer.

I enjoyed today's lesson!

Online lesson 8

This is my 8th online lesson!
Today's members are 4 (two guys and myself).
I have been only a woman in this class more than one month.

First, we enjoy small talk about the weather and animals.

A has been living in the countryside, so he happened to see animals such as wild pigs, racoon dogs and deers.

After that, we talk about what we have been doing for a long time.

I have been learning french for four years.
Basically I was interested in watching french movies or french culture.
That's why I wanted to learn it. If you feel like learning french like me, I recommend you to watch a TV program for beginners learning french everyday. Practice makes perfect!

B has been riding a motor cycle more than 30 years.
He has travelled from Kyusho through Hokkaido by his Harley-Davidson.
He carries nothing but money. He is a solo rider.

C has been learning one of the classical material arts for a long time.
Many of them were developed in the Edo period.
I have a friend who has been learninig Aikido for years. Aikido is also one of them.
They aren't "fighting."

最後に置き換えをやりました。

He listens to other people's opinions too much. He never decides himself.
He is easily influenced by others.
When he listens to others, he always changes his opinions easily.(mine)
He changes what he thinks easily when he listens to other people's opinions.

My facebook friend is comming soon!

This weekend, my facebook friend is going to visit Tokyo,
so my friends and I are having a party for her on the 22nd, Monday night.
One of my friend, living in Kanda, already made a reservation for four people at a cosy Italian restaurant in Kagurazaka.
We have something in common: the same age, learning french, facebook friend and living in Japan!

According to her, there are some of french restaurants which are closed on Mondays, like museums and libraries. She wanted to reserve at her favorite french restaurant, but she couldn't because our party falls on Monday. Instead, she made a reservation at an Italian restaurant.

Some of french or ilalian restaurants are closed on Mondays, Tuesday or even Sundays.
I suppose that owners or chefs whose restaurants are closed on Sundays are very religious.

Online lesson 7

This is my 7th online lesson!
Today's members are 3 (two guys and myself).
I am also only a woman in the class.

We enjoy small talk about our Golden Week Holidays.

I stayed in Sendai for four days three nights.
During my stay there, I visited Matsushima, the Aoba castle, the Yamadera temple, the Akiu waterfall and Mt.Zao. Luckily it was really good weather.
I enjoyed eating beef tongue. It is very tender and tasty.
The hotel where we stayed was very near a supermarket, so on my first day in Sendai, I bought sushi and other dishes there. Very economical!
Before leaving Sendai, we visted Mt. Zao to see the Okama Crater. This volcano is famous for a beautiful crater with lake, known as Okama. It likes like a cooking pot.
I really like Sendai.

During the holidays, A went back to his hometown, Nagasaki. He enjouyed local food there.
Especially he liked Nagasaki-style Turkish rice.

Toruko rice which was first created in international Nagasaki is a voluminous dish with rice pilaf, spaghetti, salad and tonkatsu.



B stayed home because he still had a back ache. It was hard for him to go somewhere by car.
Too bad! Instead, his friends visited him to enjoy a BBQ party. They grilled fish, vegetables and wild boar! According to what he said, wild boar is like pork meat. Boiled wild boar is very tender and tasty.

Okama Crator

Before leaving Sendai, we visited Mt.Zao to see the Okama Crater.
As you know, Mt.Zao is one of the most prominent mountains in the Tohoku Region, sitting on the border between Yamagata and Miyagi Prefecture.  The active volcano is famous for a beautiful crater with lake, known as Okama. It looks like a traditional cooking pot. The crater cannot be approached but we can view it from a distance outside of winter.
A spectacular road, the Zao Echo Line, leads to close to one of Mt. Zao's secondary peaks, called Kattadake. From Kattadake, tourists can view the Okama Crater without much effort, and there is also a shrine, visitor center and restaurant.

3月のライオン

 
山寺でロケがあったという『3月のライオン』について英語で書いてみましょう。
 
 
I watched this movie yesterday; March comes in like a lion.
Why do I feel like watching it? Because I happened to see this poster when I was going up to the summit of the mountain to visit the temple called Yamadera.
 

I wasn't very interested in it, but when I enjoyed the mountain view from the summit, unexpectedly, I  got interest in the characters in the movie little by little.
