It’ll help you get better.
So, what advice can I give you guys today?
Well, I think it’s a good idea to practice for a short time every day.
「英語学習はとにかく日本語訳を覚えるように」という同僚に反論しましょう。
Simple Answer
Cowoker – What do you think?
You – I suppose you have a point there, but I don’t see it that way.
Learning English words through Japanese translations isn’t a bad idea, but there are many words that can’t be put directly into Japanese.
We need to explain the nuances of such words.
you have a point 一理ある
explain 「平らにする」イメージ
※複雑で分かりづらいものをベタッと平らにして分かりやすくする、力を加える感触から他動型
explain about とはならない！
Advanced answer
You – I understand what you’re saying, but that’s just not the way I see it.
I agree that translation is useful to a certain extent. However, there are words that are simply not translatable.
Surely we have to make clear the nuances of those words.
what you’re saying 「あなたが何を言っているのか」「あなたが言っていること」2つの意味
to a certain extent ある程度まで ※extent 範囲、程度、領域
make A clear Aを明らかにする
※the nuances of those words をmake と clear の間に入れると意味が分かりづらくなるため後ろに
Hey, Chris.
So, since you speak so many languages,
I was wondering if you have any tips for my listeners.
Well, my advice today is to create your own transparent person,
your 透明人間.
Because you can speak to that person in the language
anywhere anytime and it will avoid translation.
And what I do is; I talk to my cat.
