=================================
ちょっと厄介な「Literally」の用法
=================================
皆さんは“Literally”という英語をご存知でしょうか?本来の意味は「文字通り」になるんですが、実はネイティブの日常会話ではそのような使われ方はあまりせず、真逆とも言える使われ方をしています。今日のコラムでは、本来の意味としての使い方と一般的な使い方についてご紹介いたします。
--------------------------------------------------
1) Literally
→「文字通りに」
--------------------------------------------------
LiterallyはFiguratively(比喩的に)の対義語で「文字通り」を意味する副詞です。言葉の表現を文字通りそのままの意味で解釈をすることを表します。例えば「It's a pain in the neck」は「〜が面倒だ」を意味する比喩的な表現ですが、文字通りの意味(Literal meaning)で解釈すると「首が痛い」となります。
<例文>
I didn't mean it literally.
(文字通りの意味で言ったわけではありません。)
He took what I said literally.
(彼は私が言ったことを文字通りに解釈しました。)
He stabbed him in the back? You mean literally or figuratively?
(彼が自分の背中を刺した?本当に刺したの?それとも裏切ったって言いたいの?)
--------------------------------------------------
2) Literally
→「マジで・本当に」
--------------------------------------------------
日常会話では、どちらかというと上記のような使い方ではなく、物事をちょっと大げさに言ったり、自分の気持ちや感情を強調する役割として使われています。例えば宝クジで1等を当てた友達が「My heart literally stopped for a second」と言った場合、実際に心臓が1秒止まったと言っているのではなく「マジで驚いた」を意味します。
✔ReallyやSeriouslyと同じ意味合いを持つ。
✔基本的に日常会話で使われるインフォーマルな表現なので、英文を書く時や正式なスピーチなどでの使用は避けましょう。
<例文>
I literally almost died from laughing too hard. That comedian was hilarious!
(マジで笑いすぎて死ぬかと思った。あのコメディアン超面白かったよ。)
I was literally freaking out when the cockroach started flying.
(ゴキブリが飛びはじめた時はマジでパニクった。)
He literally has no friends. He just stays at home and plays games all day.
(彼は本当に友達がいないの。一日中家でゲームをしているんだよね。)

This is HILARIOUS!!!🤣🤣🤣
讓大家看這影片另一個目的是要再次跟大家說明一件事:
Connection, not perfection.
這個人其實發音不太好,文法也不太好,
但他就是很自然很有自信地說英文,
而且掌握了連音和句子節奏,
所以其實大家還可以理解他的幽默!
另一個重點是:自己的亞洲食物還是自己做XD

Today me and friend Jillian (@JJsays - 雪莲说) went out to get boba tea (bubble tea) in Chinatown and she totally shocked the owner with her perfect Mandarin! Then we went around Chinatown and chatted with different people in Mandarin, Cantonese, and Fuzhounese. Very funny prank and social experiment — and then next time we go get dim sum in Chinese, which was equally hilarious! For more language learning vids remember to subscribe!

Today I went to NYC’s Brooklyn Chinatown as a clueless white guy and got food and chatted with locals in the rare Chinese dialect of Fuzhounese. They were totally stunned!!! This is Part 2 of our Fuzhounese adventure in NYC’s Brooklyn Chinatown of Sunset Park (8th Avenue).
It was a really fun prank and social experiment to see Chinese people’s reactions — both the waiters and the other patrons in Sunset Park were totally shocked! Then we walked around in the Chinese New Year parade and chatted with vendors and other people in Fuzhounese and Mandarin; their reactions were hilarious as well!
