みなさん、こんにちは！元気ですか？
わたしはベトナムのハノイに来て、もうすぐ１ヶ月です。
あと２日で、インドネシアのバリ島に移動する予定です。

今日は、今、Switchでプレイしているゲーム「ゼルダの伝説」の話をしたいと思います。

前回のポッドキャストで「ドラゴンクエスト３」訳して「ドラクエ３」をプレイしていると話しました。

ドラクエ３はもうクリアして、今は「ゼルダの伝説 ブレス・オブ・ザ・ワイルド」というゲームをプレイしています。

日本語って短く略（りゃく）すのが多いんだけど、今日それを考えてたのね。そしたら結構 略してる言葉がたくさんあって、発音するのが難しいな～とか長いな～とか思ってる人がいたら本当使ってほしい！

Japanese is often abbreviated in short sentences, and I was thinking about that today. I found a lot of words that are abbreviated.I really want people to use them if they find them difficult to pronounce or too long!


まず、タイトルにも書いてるんだけど、「ポケモン」ね。これって「ポケットモンスター」の略なの。そして「マクドナルド」は「マック」っていうんだけど、大阪の人は「マクド」っていうよ。「マクドナルド」の発音が難しかったら「マックどこですか？」って言えばOKだよ。

First of all, the title says it all: "Pokemon”. It stands for "Pocket Monster”. And "McDonald's" is called "Makku," but people in Osaka call it "makudo”. If you have difficulty pronouncing "McDonald's," say, "Where is Makku?(Makku wa doko desuka?) It's OK if you say.


あと「ケンタッキーフライドチキン」は「ケンタ」、「ユニバーサルスタジオジャパン」は「ユニバ」、「スターバックス」は「スタバ」....うーん、あと、、、コンビニの「セブンイレブン」は「セブン」、「ファミリーマート」は「ファミマ」、「ローソン」は...略しません！「ローソン」は「ローソン」だよ！

And "Kentucky Fried Chicken" is "Kenta", "Universal Studios Japan" is "Yuniba", and "Starbucks" is "Sutaba". .... Ummm...also...convenience stores "7-Eleven" is "Seven", "Family Mart" is "Famima", "Lawson" is... They don't abbreviate! Lawson is "Lawson"!


あと「タピオカを飲む」は「タピる」、「あー、なるほどね」は「あーね」とかも言うよ！

We also say "tapiru" for "drink tapioca (Tapioka wo nomu)" and "ah, I see(a—, naruhodone)" for "a–—ne"!


あとあとアイスクリームの「バスキン・ロビンス(Baskin-Robbins)」ってあるじゃん？もし日本で「バスキン・ロビンスどこですか？」って言っても日本人わからないんだよね。「サーティーワン(31)どこですか？」ってきいたらわかるよ！

And there is also an ice cream shop called "Baskin-Robbins", right? If you ask, "Where is Baskin-Robbins?(Baskin-Robbins wa doko desuka?)" in Japan, the Japanese don't understand. If you ask "Where is Thirty One?(Thirty One wa doko desuka?)", The Japanese will understand!

Negotiations are a dance – a balance between collaboration and advocating for your position. Confidence is, of course, key, and the language you use plays a crucial role in conveying it. 

Here's how to harness the power of words in three key areas:

1. Framing & Highlighting Value:

Start Strong: Open with a positive, confident statement that positions your value. Instead of "We're happy to discuss this opportunity," try "Our solution has a proven track record of increasing sales by X%."

Focus on Benefits: Shift the conversation from features to the benefits your offer brings. Don't just say "Our software is user-friendly," explain how it "streamlines workflows and saves your team time."

2. Concession Language with Strength:

Conditional Agreements: Acknowledge their points without conceding defeat. Use phrases like "That's a valid concern. To address it, we can offer..." This shows you're listening while steering the discussion.

"We Can" vs. "We Might": Use strong verbs that project confidence. "We can offer a discount for a bulk order" sounds more assured than "We might be able to consider a discount."

3. Closing the Deal with Clarity:

Active Voice & Ownership: Phrases like "We propose a contract with..." sound stronger than "Perhaps we could have a contract."

Summarize & Confirm: Recap key points and confirm next steps. End with "By finalizing the contract today, we can begin implementation next week"

Confident language isn't about aggression; it's about clear, persuasive communication. By strategically using these tips, you'll project confidence, effectively advocate for your value, and navigate negotiations with power and professionalism.
