昔は日本語の色は「赤」（red)、「青」(blue)、「白」(white)、「黒」(black)の４色しかなかったそうなんです。そして、この4色に「黄色」(yellow)と「茶色」(brown)の2色を合わせた6色が、古くから日本語で使われていた伝統的な色名とされています。
さて、この６色は　最後に「い」をつけると　形容詞になり、物の色を表現できます。
例えば、「赤い車」、「青い海」、「白い雪」「黒い髪」などですね。そして「黄色い花」、「茶色い馬」などと言うことができます。
では　この６色以外の色の形容詞は　どういいますか？例えば、greenの緑は「緑い」とは言いません。
その他の色は　○○色の　ということができますよ。
例えば、　greenの緑は「緑色の」となります。
「緑色の野菜」「ピンク色のTシャツ」「水色の傘」などですね！

ただ、例外もあって、赤、青、白、黒、なども　「赤色の靴」、「青色のかばん」などのように言うこともできます。

スタンフォードだいがく１

Most employers won’t voluntarily tell you you’re out of the running for a job, nonetheless, outline the reasons you weren’t selected. 

Why? They likely have many applicants, don’t want to provoke you, and even fear being sued. Yet, it is possible to get feedback after an interview, if you know how to ask for it the right way. 

In this Express to Impress Podcast episode, you will learn how to ask for an employer’s feedback after your interview. Specifically, you will learn exactly what to write and say to get the feedback you desire. I will share a couple of effective strategies on how to get a valuable and honest response from an employer. 

In addition, you will hear some real-life stories from the employers’ perspective, as well as my clients’ experience in getting feedback. Finally, you will learn how to react to the employer’s feedback to leave a good impression. 

At the end of the episode, we’ll discuss five idioms you can use to improve your English.
