Frases NO LITERALES en Argentina y México!

まずは、日常会話でよく使う「相槌（あいづち）」について話しましょう。相槌は、会話の流れを自然に保つためにとても重要です。例えば、次のようなフレーズをよく聞きます。

「そうそう」
これは「そうですね」のカジュアルな言い方です。例えば、友達が「昨日、映画見たんだ！」と言ったら、すぐに「そうそう、最近流行ってるよね」と返すと、話が続きやすくなります。

「うんうん」
これは相手の話に同意していることを示すフレーズです。英語で言うと「yeah, yeah」と同じような感じです。例えば、友達が長い話をしているとき、「うんうん」と頷きながら聞くと、相手は話しやすくなります。

「へぇー！」
驚きを表すこの相槌は、特に相手の話が新しい情報だったり、面白い内容だったときに使います。例えば、「彼がプロポーズしたんだよ！」という話に対して、「へぇー、すごいね！」と反応する感じです。

Give a tongue twister a twirl!

What do you do if you see an object in a plastic bag lying around at a bus stop?

Most people would say: "Don't touch it!"

That's very good advice — most of the time.

But an object that was once found in a plastic shopping bag at a bus stop has just sold for $22.3 million at auction.

It was a painting by a great artist from Venice known as Titian. It's called The Rest on the Flight into Egypt, and it has a long and interesting history.

Although it's thought of as a masterpiece, it's one of the artist's smaller paintings. In fact, it's only 46 centimeters high and 63 centimeters wide.

Titian painted it early in the 16th century, when he was 20.

The painting, which depicts Jesus, Mary and Joseph from the Bible, has been owned by a number of rich and famous Europeans, including Austrian emperors.

It was taken from Vienna in 1809 by French soldiers, although it was later returned to the Austrian capital.

Later, it was bought by a British collector, but it was stolen in 1995.

And for seven years it was lost. After a reward of almost $130,000 was offered to anyone who could find the painting, it turned up at a London bus stop.

It had no frame when it was found by a well known art detective, but it was in quite good condition.

It had been expected to make between $19 million and $32 million at auction in London. The final amount was a new record for a Titian painting.

But that still might not be a good enough reason to go looking in plastic bags at bus stops!
