こんにちは！みほです。みなさん元気ですか。私のポッドキャスト「Mihongo Nihongo」へようこそ！
このポッドキャストでは、私がみじかい話(はなし)をします。みなさんは私の話を聞(き)いて、質問(しつもん)に答(こた)えてください。

きょうの話は「好(す)きな色(いろ)」です。質問は３つです。
①私は何色(なにいろ)の服(ふく)をたくさん持(も)っていますか。
②私は若(わか)いとき、何色が好きでしたか。
③私は昔(むかし)の写真(しゃしん)を見ると、どう思(おも)いますか。

準備(じゅんび)はいいですか？はじめましょう！

みなさんは何色(なにいろ)が好きですか。私は青(あお)と緑(みどり)と黒(くろ)が好きです。服(ふく)を買(か)うとき、よくこの３色(さんしょく/3 colors)を探(さが)します。特(とく)に、黒の服(ふく)はたくさん持(も)っています。でも、二十歳(はたち)ぐらいのときは、ピンクが大好きでした。コートやバッグ、ケータイ、なんでもピンクでした。今、昔(むかし)の写真(しゃしん)を見るとちょっと恥(は)ずかしいです。

ではもう一度(いちど)質問です。
①私は何色(なにいろ)の服(ふく)をたくさん持(も)っていますか。
②私は若(わか)いとき、何色が好きでしたか。
③私は昔(むかし)の写真(しゃしん)を見ると、どう思(おも)いますか。


答えです。

All About English and How You Learn It!

Learning English through Video Games

The boardroom shimmered with anticipation. It was our moment – the chance to present our green energy solution to a potential billion-dollar partner.  Months of research and development hung in the balance.  As CEO, I knew the presentation had to be flawless.

Flashback six weeks.  We'd made the initial contact with them, but our initial proposal was met with a lukewarm response.  Their feedback – "unclear goals" and "lack of data-driven evidence."  It was a harsh lesson.  We'd underestimated the importance of clear communication.

This time, we went all in on preparation.  We drilled down on their specific needs, tailoring our presentation to address their environmental goals and cost-saving projections.  Data became our mantra.  Charts, graphs, and case studies were meticulously crafted to showcase the impact of our technology.

Anticipating questions was paramount.  Our team planned every scenario, rehearsing responses until they were clear, concise, and confident.  Even the presentation slides – clean, visually appealing, and focused on the message – became a communication tool.

Fast forward to the meeting.  My opening statement resonated.  It wasn't just about our technology; it was about a shared vision for a sustainable future.  The data painted a compelling picture, each statistic linked back to the investor's needs.  When questions arose, our team delivered prepared, impactful responses.

The atmosphere shifted.  Their executives leaned forward, engaged.  The follow-up discussions were lively, brimming with possibilities.  We left that day with a handshake and a renewed sense of optimism.

Weeks later, they signed the partnership agreement.  Looking back, it wasn't just our technology that won them over.  It was the preparation, the clear communication, and the confidence we exuded. In business, effective communication is the bridge between good ideas and successful partnerships.  And that bridge is built on preparation.
