【日本語podcast】Natsumiは、ただ普通に話したいだけ Just wanna talk naturally in Japanese

#3アメリカで出会った人の話【N1】

No episódio de hoje, vamos falar sobre a expressão idiomática "Estar com a cabeça nas nuvens", uma expressão usada em língua portuguesa no Brasil em diferentes contextos para descrever pessoas que estão mentalmente ausentes ou distraídas devido aos seus pensamentos ou sonhos. Acompanhe o podcast "Colorindo o Diálogo" na voz da professora Camila Ramos.

Estar com a cabeça nas nuvens

「あやしい」とは本当かどうか疑わしいという意味です。
「聞いているだけで英語が話せるようになる」とか「これを食べるだけでやせる」という商品を見るたびに私は「あやしいな」と思います。

オンラインショップやレストランのレビューもあやしいなと感じることがあります。私はアマゾンで商品を買うときはなるべくレビューやコメントが多い商品を選びます。レビューがとてもいい商品でも、レビューの数が少ないものはあまり選ばないようにしています。

２週間前の雪が降るという天気予報を私はあやしいなと思っていました。「もう4月なのに今さら雪が降るわけがない」と思っていました。でも、たくさん雪が積もりました。

みなさんは、最近なにか「あやしいな」と感じたことはありますか？


あやしい：doubtful, suspect, fishy
疑わしい：うたがわしい　doughtful
やせる：lose weight
商品：しょうひん　product
レビュー：rating, review, 評価（ひょうか）
数：かず　number
評価をつける／残す（のこす）： to rate, review
天気予報：てんきよほう　weather forecast

あやしい-Today’s Word

Language lovers, tune in!

I hear this question, “How can I sound more like a native English speaker?” all the time, and I always give the same response. Use the shadowing technique!

Shadowing involves repeating someone's speech immediately after they say it. It's like you're following them as your shadow follows you. The beauty of this technique is that anyone can do it alone. Since most people learning a second language don't have the opportunity to speak with native speakers often, speaking it on your own is the next best thing. This method isn't only for English learning; it will work for all languages!

Tune in to the latest Express to Impress podcast episode to learn how to implement the shadowing technique. Learn about its origins and get tips to implement it effectively.  You’ll be inspired by the stories I share of people who have attained near-native English fluency and pronunciation by using this technique. By the end, you’ll be convinced the shadowing technique is an incredibly powerful English learning tool!
