Hello and welcome to another episode of Engine English! Every language has its own idioms and expressions and the English language has plenty of phrases that are useful to learn. Idioms are words or phrases that aren’t meant to be taken literally and usually have a cultural meaning behind them. Most of the English idioms you hear are offering advice but also contain some underlying principles and values. You have probably heard some of them, especially in TV shows and movies, and wondered why you can’t understand these idioms even though you fully understand the words. Learning English idioms and expressions can take some time but there are some of them that are more popular than others that will come in handy if you know them. When you learn English idioms and phrases you will sound more confident especially when you speak with native English speakers. If you can’t understand idioms you will not be able to understand the context. That is why I have gathered some of the most common English idioms and phrases so you will understand their true meaning of them.

私は先日タクシーのアプリをダウンロードしました。
このアプリは目的地と待ち合わせ場所をあらかじめ設定することができます。予約が完了すると、タクシーの色と車のナンバーが送られてくるので、自分が乗るタクシーをすぐに見つけることができます。
予約したタクシーがどこにいるかを地図上で見たり、タクシーが何分後に到着するかを知ることもできます。
支払いはアプリにクレジットカード情報を登録しておけば、目的地に着いた時に支払いをせずにすぐに降りることができます。

このアプリを使ってみた私の感想は待ち合わせ場所の近くにいるタクシーが来るので、待ち時間が少なく、支払いも楽なのでとても便利だと思いました。しかし、私はそもそもタクシーをあまり使わないようにしているので、あまり恩恵を受けられないかもしれません。

みなさんはタクシーアプリを使っていますか？
どんな時にタクシーに乗りますか？

あらかじめ：in advance
目的地：もくてきち　destination
待ち合わせ場所：まちあわせばしょmeeting spot
地図上：ちずじょう　on the map
到着する：とうちゃくする　arrive
登録する：とうろくする　register
感想：かんそう　my thoughts
タクシーを呼(よ)ぶ：call taxi
そもそも：in the first place
恩恵を受ける：おんけいをうける　get benefit
