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!

SWE 47 American Patriotism on July 4th part 1 

你们不要忘记，我当时处在远离人烟千里之外的地方。
Remember, I had crashed in the desert a thousand miles from any inhabited region.
而这个小家伙给我的印象是，他既不像迷了路的样子，也没有半点疲乏、饥渴、惧怕的神情。
And yet my little man seemed neither to be straying uncertainly among the sands, nor to be fainting from fatigue or hunger or thirst or fear.
他丝毫不像是一个迷失在旷无人烟的大沙漠中的孩子。
Nothing about him gave any suggestion of a child lost in the middle of the desert, a thousand miles from any human habitation.
当我在惊讶之中终于又能说出话来的时候，对他说道：
When at last I was able to speak, I said to him:
唉，你在这儿干什么？
But– what are you doing here?
可是他却不慌不忙地好像有一件重要的事一般，对我重复地说道：
And in answer he repeated, very slowly, as if he were speaking of a matter of great consequence:
请…给我画一只羊
If you please– draw me a sheep.
当一种神秘的东西把你镇住的时候，你是不敢不听从它的支配的，
When a mystery is too overpowering, one dare not disobey.

在这旷无人烟的沙漠上，面临死亡的危险的情况下，尽管这样的举动使我感到十分荒诞，
Absurd as it might seem to me, a thousand miles from any human habitation and in danger of death,


我还是掏出了一张纸和一支钢笔。
I took out of my pocket a sheet of paper and my fountain-pen.


这时我却又记起，我只学过地理、历史、算术和语法，
But then I remembered how my studies had been concentrated on geography, history, arithmetic, and grammar,


就有点不大高兴地对小家伙说我不会画画。
and I told the little chap (a little crossly, too) that I did not know how to draw.
他回答我说：“没有关系，给我画一只羊吧！”
He answered me:“That doesn’t matter. Draw me a sheep.”
因为我从来没有画过羊，
But I had never drawn a sheep.
我就给他重画我所仅仅会画的两副画中的
So I drew for him one of the two pictures I had drawn so often.

那副闭着肚皮的巨蟒。
It was that of the boa constrictor from the outside.
我听了他的话，简直目瞪口呆。
And I was astounded to hear the little fellow greet it with.

不，不！我不要蟒蛇，它肚子里还有一头象。
No, no, no! I do not want an elephant inside a boa constrictor.
他接着说：“巨蟒这东西太危险，大象又太占地方。”
A boa constrictor is a very dangerous creature, and an elephant is very cumbersome.
我住的地方非常小，我需要一只羊。给我画一只羊吧。
Where I live, everything is very small. What I need is a sheep. Draw me a sheep.
我就给他画了。
So then I made a drawing.
