Wyn's Way to English - "Benefit of the doubt"

Script

おはようございます。日本語だんだんpodcastのゆかりです。

10月31日はハロウィンですね。
　
毎年(まいとし)、渋谷(しぶや)にはたくさんの仮装(かそう)した人があつまります。

"仮装する"については、前のポットキャストではなしましたね。

ただ、今年(ことし)の渋谷(しぶや)の
ハロウィンはちょっと、ちがいます。

今年のハロウィンのあいだは、
外でお酒(さけ)をのむことは、
禁止(きんし)になりました。

禁止とは、してはいけないことです。

道(みち)や公園(こうえんで)
お酒をのむことができません。

それから、渋谷区(しぶやく)の区長(くちょう)が、

「ハロウィンに、渋谷にこないでください。」
といっています。

"こないで"とは、いま自分のいるばしょに、きてほしくないときに、いいます。

たとえば、ともだちに、

「私のへやはきたないから、今日はあそびにこないでね。」

と、いいます。

たくさんの人がくると、あぶないですね。

そのために、ハロウィンは渋谷にこないで、といっています。

いま、日本にいる人は
気をつけてくださいね。

では、今日も、最後まで聞いてくれて、だんだん、です！

また明日。

Hello everyone, and welcome back to our IELTS Success podcast. Today, we’re diving into a powerful tool for your Speaking test: idioms.
Now, you might be asking, Why idioms? Well, idioms show examiners that you have a natural and flexible command of English. But remember—idioms should sound natural, not forced. Think of them as spices in cooking: a little can make your language richer, too much can overwhelm.
Let’s look at five idioms you can use in real answers.
“Over the moon” – Imagine the examiner asks about a happy experience. You could say: “When I passed my driving test, I was over the moon.”
“A blessing in disguise” – If asked about challenges, try: “Losing my job was tough, but it was a blessing in disguise because it pushed me to study abroad.”
“Hit the nail on the head” – For opinions, you might say: “I think you hit the nail on the head when you said technology connects people.”
“Once in a blue moon” – For frequency questions: “I only go to the cinema once in a blue moon, because I prefer watching movies at home.”
“Burn the midnight oil” – For study habits: “Before exams, I usually burn the midnight oil to revise all the material.”
So, idioms make your answers more engaging and memorable. Practice using them naturally in your daily speech, and you’ll not only impress the examiner—you’ll also sound much more confident.
That’s all for today. Until next time, keep practicing and keep shining!
