The Word "Holiday"

Did you know Shakespeare invented words…

Did you know?

Shakespeare’s invented words

MEG: Well, hello there, Julia! Long time no see!
JULIA: Meg! Hi! What a coincidence! I haven’t seen you in ages! What 
are you doing here?
MEG: I just got a new job in the city, so I’m shopping for some 
clothes. Hey, what do you think of this shirt?
JULIA: Hmmm … well, you know how much I love blue. See? I’ve got 
the same shirt!
MEG: You always did have good taste! What a small world.



LANGUAGE NOTES
• Well, hello there … Notice the emphasis on “hello,” which shows that Meg did not 
expect to see Julia.
• Long time, no see! This is a common expression used to say hello to someone you 
haven’t seen in a long time.
• What a ___! This exclamation shows a great degree of surprise, joy, disappointment, 
etc. (What a surprise to see you here! What a joy to have you with us! What a shame 
that you have to leave so soon! What a wonderful idea that is!)
• You always did have good taste! Notice the stress on “did,” which Meg uses to 
emphasize the fact that Julia DOES have good taste! Meg says it in a joking way 
because Julia likes the same thing that she does.
• What a small world is a common expression used to describe a chance meeting or 
other such coincidence.

こんばんは！Atsushiです。
北海道に帰ってきてPodcastを2本、とっています。

昨日、新しくレッスンを受けてくださった方がと話しました。会話の中で、私のPodcastをいくつか聞いてくれていたことがわかり、とてもうれしい気持ちになりました。聞いてもらえるとがんばろう！という気持ちになりますね。本当にありがとうございます。

あらためて、なぜPodcastをはじめたかたというと、日本語を学習しているみなさんの助けになりたい！と思ったからです。もちろんレッスンで実際に話すのが1番良いと思いますが、聞いて耳でなれることもとても大切だと思います。

できるだけ毎日3分ほどの短いPodcastを作りますので、気に入った内容は何度も聞いてみたり、聞きながら自分でも話してみたりしてみてください。

私も今、英語の発音の勉強をしていますが、発音の練習をするとリスニング、聞き取りも良くなっている実感があります。気に入った内容は何度も何度も聞いています。


これからもいろんなトピックについて話していきますので、
もし、気に入ったトピックについて、実際に私と話したい！と思った方は、ぜひレッスンでお話しましょう！お待ちしています！

ということで、今回も最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！ではまた！
