うなぎ：eel

土用（どよう）："土用（どよう）" strictly refers to the 18 days before the first days of spring, summer, fall, and winter (on the lunar calendar). Today, however, "土用（どよう）" generally refers only to the 18 days before the first day of fall.

丑（うし）の日（ひ）：The day called "丑（うし）の日（ひ）", which is translated literally as the day of the Ox, can be seen in the calendar that follows the twelve signs of the Chinese zodiac. The twelve signs were introduced to Japan from ancient China. The twelve signs were allocated one by one to the days on the calendar. "丑（うし）の日（ひ）" is the day to which the second sign of the twelve signs is allocated. 

立春（りっしゅん）：the first day of spring
立夏（りっか）：the first day of summer
立秋（りっしゅう）：the first day of fall
立冬（りっとう）：the first day of winter

つまり：in other words

I believe that many people, especially geek ones (like developers , statistician, etc ), sometimes need to deliver message to non-technical ones who are in different field. They may struggle communicating to each other.

Most people might understand that Public Speaking is talking on stage towards 100 or 1000 audiences. I, however, argue that it is formal, face-to-face talking of a single person to a group of ones. Though, I will, in this blog, focus on presentation.

There are two main types of communication, which are:

Verbal Communication such as controlling Tone of Voice
and
Non Verbal Communication like Body Language

Speakers, who can control their tones of voice, could manipulate listeners’ feelings and emotion. Most human do not know what type of their voices is, its nature and how can it be exploit. 

It is a good opportunity to share my knowledge and you may adapt it, listen your own voice, and adapt it for the sake of better communication.

Listen to the data on how you can improve your influence and incorporate that in your next meeting!

If you want to be fearless English communicator - knowing yourself and being confident speaking it - schedule a class with me now!

『羅生門』 第五話　芥川龍之介・著
'Rashomon' #5
Written by Ryunosuke Akutagawa

申の刻下がりから 降り出した雨は、
いまだにあがるけしきがない。
そこで、下人は、何をおいても差し当り
明日の暮しをどうにかしようとして――
いわばどうにもならない事を、どうにかしようとして、
とりとめもない考えをたどりながら、
さっきから朱雀大路にふる雨の音を、
聞くともなく聞いていたのである。
雨は、羅生門をつつんで、遠くから
ざあっという音を 集めてくる。
夕闇は次第に空を低くして、見上げると、
門の屋根が、斜めに突き出した甍の先に、
重たく薄暗い雲を支ている。
