☆ネイティブの生の会話からリアルな英語を学ぶ☆
=================================
1) Either way(どちらにしても〜だ)
=================================
eitherは「二つのうちどちらか一方」を意味することから、either wayは「どっちでも〜だ」や「どちらにせよ〜だ」を意味します。「どっちでもいいよ」は“I’m fine either way. ”、「どちらにせよ、それは重要ではない」は“Either way, it’s not important. ”という具合に使われます。ちなみに、今日の会話で使われた“It could go either way.”は「どちらに転んでもおかしくない」を意味します。
<例文>
I’m fine either way. I don’t have a preference.
(どっちでもいいよ。特に好みはないから。)
Either way, it’s expensive. Let’s just fly there.
(どちらにしても高いから飛行機で行こう。)
I have no idea who’s going to win tonight. It could go either way.
(今夜は誰が勝つか全然分からない。どっちが勝ってもおかしくないよ。)
=================================
2) Much the same(ほぼ同じ)
=================================
much the sameは「ほとんど同じ」や「大差がない」を意味する表現で、almost the sameと同じ意味合いになります。「私もほぼ同じです」は“I’m much the same.”といいますが、ネイティブはよく“I’m pretty much the same.”と表現します。ちなみに、「全く同じである」はvery much the sameと言います。
<例文>
I’m much the same. I hardly ever eat fast food.
(私も似たようなものです。ファストフードはほとんど食べません。)
My schedule is pretty much the same as yours.
(私のスケジュールはあなたとほぼ同じです。)
We have very much the same personality.
(私たちは性格が全く同じですね。)
=================================
3) Nothing like(〜とは全然違う)
=================================
nothing likeはvery different fromと似た意味合いになり、二つのものや人が全く異なることを意味します。例えば、「発音が全然違うよ」は“It sounds nothing like that.”、「彼は全然私に似ていません」は“He looks nothing like me.”という具合に使います。ちなみに、“There is nothing like ____.”は「〜に勝るものはない」を意味し、「〜は最高だ」と表現する時に使われる口語的な言い回しです。日常会話では、there isを省いて“Nothing like ____.”と言うこともあります。
<例文>
You look nothing like your older brother. Are you guys really siblings?
(全然お兄さんに似ていないね。本当に兄弟なの?)
Tokyo is nothing like LA. It’s a completely different kind of vibe out there.
(東京はロスとは全然違うよ。雰囲気が全く違う。)
Nothing like an ice cold beer on a hot summer day.
(夏の暑い日には、冷たいビールが最高だ。)
=================================
4) Pretentious(気取った)
=================================
pretentiousは「気取った」や「偉ぶった」を意味する単語です。これはpretend(〜のふりをする)に由来する言葉で、見栄を張っている人や偉そうな態度を取っている人、まるで知識があるかのように振る舞おうとする人に対して使われます。
<例文>
Don’t say things like that. It makes you sound pretentious.
(そういうこと言わない。偉そうに聞こえるよ。)
I thought he came off a bit pretentious.
(彼はちょっとお高くとまった感じの人だと思いました。)
I don’t mean to sound pretentious, but the proper pronunciation is karaoke.
(気取っているわけではありませんが、正しい発音は「カラオケ」です。)
=================================
5) Force(強制する)
=================================
forceが名詞で使われる場合は「力」や「エネルギー」を意味しますが、動詞として使う場合は「〜を強制する」や「無理やり〜する」を意味します。残業を強要されたり、人がやりたくないことを無理強いするような状況で使われます。
<例文>
My boss forced me to work last weekend. I didn’t even get paid for it.
(先週末は上司に無理やり働かされました。お給料ももらえませんでした。)
Don’t force the drawer open. You’re going to break it.
(引き出しを無理やり開けないで。壊れちゃうよ。)
I was full, but I forced myself to eat everything.
(お腹いっぱいでしたが、無理して全部食べました。)

A very interesting text about how we teach reading to kids! (值得一讀!)
https://www.apmreports.org/episode/2019/08/22/whats-wrong-how-schools-teach-reading
學界爭論不休的 whole language approach 和 systematic phonics approach,究竟哪一個有更多的科學理據,去支持成為較適合幼兒閱讀的策略呢?
Whole language approach 著重提供一個豐富的、包含讀寫聽說的語言環境,著重文字在文本中呈現出來的意思,鼓勵孩子運用思考力從不同的 cues(例如圖畫、上文下理、beginning sound)去猜估文字,講求make sense of language。孩子有學習 phonics 的,只是不完整也沒有系統。
.graphic cues (what do the letters tell you about what the word might be?)
.syntactic cues (what kind of word could it be, for example, a noun or a verb?)
.semantic cues (what word would make sense here, based on the context?)
另一套觀點則強調要 explicitly, systematically 教授 letter 同 sound 的關係,怎樣 decode words,即是在孩子初學習英語時,集中把 phonics 的系統循序漸進式地好好掌握。
香港的學校多是採用 whole language approach,而家長努力付費外補的多是 phonics。
文中詳細描述了能夠掌握有效 phonics 策略的學生是如何閱讀:
//Here's what happens when a reader who has good phonics skills comes to a word she doesn't recognize in print. She stops at the word and sounds it out. If it's a word she knows the meaning of, she has now linked the spelling of the word with its pronunciation. If she doesn't know the meaning of the word, she can use context to try to figure it out.
By about second grade, a typically developing reader needs just a few exposures to a word through understanding both the pronunciation and the spelling for that word to be stored in her memory. She doesn't know that word because she memorized it as a visual image. She knows that word because at some point she successfully sounded it out.
The more words she stores in her memory this way, the more she can focus on the meaning of what she's reading; she'll eventually be using less brain power to identify words and will be able to devote more brain power to comprehending what she's reading.//
近年很多學者從科學研究的角度證實 systematic phonics approach 對提升孩子閱讀能力更有幫助。

#MyVoiceAndI #lockdowndiaries #throwbackthursdays
When I say I miss the stage, I’m not only referring to the two hours of live performance that you all see. I miss myself. I miss who I am during the process: learning new repertoire, spending endless hours in solitude learning all the notes at the piano, reading and looking up each word in the dictionary, trying to get the pronunciation and colouring of the text as authentic as possible. It’s the time spent observing, imitating, and drawing inspiration from all the great artists through dvds and videos. It’s the process of igniting my imagination, and gradually getting into the shoes of a new role, and finding new things about an old piece or a character along the way of rehearsing with other musicians. It’s the incomparable satisfaction of hearing my voice resonate and project into a big space with no artificial amplification. It’s the exchange of energy with people around me. It’s feeling that I want to pour my heart and soul out to the world through music without expecting anything in return. Everything in this process, including the really scary moments in which I doubt everything I do, to the exciting feeling of overcoming those obstacles and making little breakthroughs and connecting with the music and the people around… I miss them all. Right now I’m learning something which is a bit of a foreign concept: patience. I need patience to be at peace with the uncertainty of everything. 2020 is the first time in years that I’m forced (or given space and time) to sit down and listen to my inner voice, instead of singing with my soprano voice.

Hello Internet, my name is Ray, I'm a YouTuber from Taiwan, and this is an open letter to the World Health Organization.
Dear WHO, I’m not sure if you’ve noticed, but a lot of your members have been voicing support for the inclusion of Taiwan in the WHO.
Since the novel coronavirus outbreak was designated as a global health emergency, core WHO members and their heads of state and officials, including Justin Trudeau, Shinzo Abe, 7 American senators, and the European Union (and more), have called on you to grant at the very least observer status to Taiwan. Having said that, I feel like as a Taiwanese citizen, it’s imperative that we also speak up for ourselves.
Disease knows no boundaries. Taiwan’s participation in the WHO is crucial not just to Taiwan but also to the world. A concerted, global effort is the only way to ensure the health and welfare of everyone. The coronavirus that began in Wuhan, China, has already spread to other regions and countries, excluding Taiwan could make it a "blind spot" in the international response to the disease.
Additionally, back in 2003, the SARS outbreak resulted in 73 lives taken in Taiwan. If we had been included in the WHO back then, we would’ve had better understanding of the virus and maybe, who knows, more lives could have been saved.
But we’re not just here playing the victim here, Taiwan can help. Taiwan’s healthcare system is lauded as among the best in the world, and our medical standards are generally on par with top global countries. The inclusion of Taiwan in world health assemblies and events would enable it to share its invaluable experiences in combating SARS, Ebola and other pandemics, helping countries around the world, including China. With our universal health coverage, health emergency response, and professional medical training, Taiwan can benefit the world.
Now you might say, Taiwan’s already represented by China in the WHO, but Taiwan’s geological separation and its independent disease control system and air traffic management provide further justification to why the WHO must take different approaches to Taiwan and China amid the coronavirus outbreak.
Also, given our proximity, Taiwan is at the very frontline battling this coronavirus from China, and we are skilled, determined, and equipped with past experiences combating different viruses. Excluding us is putting close to 24 million lives and the global population at risk.
As a Taiwanese, as a member of the global community, I am asking you on behalf of the world to include Taiwan. By allowing our participation in the WHO, you will be realizing the organization’s vision of health as a basic human right and health for all without exception. Thank you for your time.

大家好,我是阿滴,我是一名來自台灣的 YouTuber。這是給世界衛生組織的一封公開信。
親愛的世界衛生組織,不知道你們有沒有注意到,貴組織最近有越來越多成員在聲援台灣成為世衛的一分子。在新型冠狀病毒被列為全球衛生緊急事件後,世衛核心會員國的元首和官員們,包括加拿大總理杜魯道、日本首相安倍、七位美國參議員,和歐盟(以及其他代表)等等,皆紛紛站出來呼籲讓台灣至少能以觀察員的身份參與世界衛生組織。說到這裡,身為一個台灣人,我認為我們也必須站出來替自己發聲。
疾病的肆虐是無視國界的。台灣能否參與世界衛生組織不僅對我們重要,對全世界也很重要。全球團結一致、齊心協力,才能最有效的保障所有人的健康與福祉。從中國武漢開始的冠狀病毒疫情已擴散到其他地區與國家,將台灣排除在世界衛生組織外將造成國際上防疫的「盲點」。
此外,2003年爆發的SARS疫情,造成台灣失去了73條性命。如果我們當初有在世界衛生組織內,對於病毒就能有更深入的了解,而或許,就會有更多人因此得救了。
然而,我們並不是要博取同情,而是想讓世界知道台灣能幫上忙。台灣擁有全球最佳的健保制度,還有與其他先進國家並駕齊驅的醫療水準。如果讓台灣參與世界衛生組織,我們將有機會分享對抗SARS和其他流行疾病的寶貴經驗,進一步幫助世界各國,包括中國。透過我們的全民健康覆蓋、衛生應急響應,和專業的醫療訓練,台灣能幫助全世界。
不過,你可能會說,中國已經代表台灣參加世界衛生組織了。但是,台灣在地理位置的區隔下有獨立的疾病控管系統和航空交通管制,這說明了為什麼世界衛生組織在處理冠狀病毒的疫情時更應該對台灣和中國採取不同的應對方式。
同時,台灣跟中國就在隔壁,台灣站在對抗新型冠狀病毒的最前線,且我們有能力、有決心,也有對抗不同病毒的豐富經驗。將我們排除在外,即代表忽視將近2400萬的台灣人民與全球人口的生命安全。
身為一個台灣人、同時也是全球人民的一分子,我向你們請求讓台灣加入世界衛生組織。讓我們參與,即是實踐貴組織的願景:健康是基本人權,沒有人該被排除在外。謝謝你們的時間。
