2) Last night, I ate a lot before going to bed. So my stomach was too full this morning. I didn’t feel well and get up all day.

【4】 Communication Skill Exercise（英文）
Your Opinion:
I agree with Ethan. That helps your working environment turn into a comfortable atmosphere. If you do that, he will be able to work with confidence and you will not need to hurt his feelings. I hope you are having better relationship with him.

Yesterday, I was talking about “”answering the questions first””.
I explained that people couldn’t listen to others for a long time.
When we answer a question, we want to explain about the details and think we have to say a lot of things.
But no one is asking you to explain the details.
You don’t really have to give the details unless people ask for it.
You can keep your sentences short and simple that way.
It will become easier for you to communicate with others if you try to answer the questions first.
The way of communication between Japanese and English is very different.
Now you know, so let’s practice it in the lessons as well!
Hope today’s feedback will be helpful for you. :-)

2) 「胃もたれ」を、とても易しく表現した置き換えになりました ^^
I didn’t feel well and get up all day.
⇒ get up は、起きる「状態」よりも「行動」のニュアンスになります。
「起きなかった」は「寝ていた」や「横になっていた」と表現すると自然ですが、
「ベッドにいた」は「ベッドの中に留まっていた」と考えると表現し易くなり、
ニュアンスもよく伝わると思います ^^

If I were Alex, I’ll suggest that the colleague asks our boss for an opinion instead of asking me. Then the boss will understand how bothering it is and finally take an action! ;-)
