前回やっと新宿駅を脱出したBenですが、新宿の街はBenの目にはどのように映ったのでしょうか？
Ben stepped out of the station and was immediately surprised by the sight in front of him.
Although he had come from a big city, he could quickly see London and Tokyo were very different!
The city he had arrived in felt even more exhilarating than London,
and he was instantly invigorated by the new sights and sounds.
Even at such a late hour, the city felt alive and the muggy summer air made him begin
to perspire surprisingly quickly; the weather was another thing which was very different in Tokyo!
Although he wanted to explore the city now, he decided the sensible thing to do would be to make his way to the hotel and have a few hours rest before morning.
Tomorrow was his first full day in Tokyo and he didn't want to feel exhausted.
Ben got into a taxi, asked the driver to take him to his hotel,
and arrived just as the sun was starting to rise.
新宿はBenにとって、魅力的に映ったようです。
ロンドンより活気があるんですね。
さぁ、今回Benが使っていた単語は、どうやって発音すればいいのでしょうか？
1)
immediatelyという単語は、
Italyと発音し、次に
mediaと発音し、次に
putと発音し、次に
levisと、発音してください。
口にi, media, t, leの感じが残っているうちに、i-media-t-leと発音すると
ハイ、immediatelyの出来上がりです。
では、次にimmediatelyの意味と例文の解説をどうぞ。
Meaning
To do something immediately means to do it without delay.
Notes
Another way to say immediately is “straight away”. For example, “I’ll tell him straight away”.
Examples
”I’ll tell him immediately”
“After eating lunch, I immediately felt better”
いかがでしたか？
では、次回は、exhilaratingを解説します。
お愉しみに！
