感想など 　※ネタバレ注意

今回は聴き取りやすい人々の会話が中心だったので、勉強にはならないかもしれないけれど、やっぱり聞きやすくて楽な回だった。
そしてTahaniとEleanorそれぞれのエピソードはすごくいい話だった～！
前回のJasonとChidiのエピソードと比べ、やっぱり女性間の人間関係の方が難しいんだな、と実感。。。

さらに、いつも通りだけど参考になる口語表現があちこちに。

Spare me. 「かんべんして」
Geez. 「なんてこった」
Who might you be? 「どちら様？」
Get out of here. 「ウソでしょ！？」
Oh, snap! 「しまった！」
Give me a break. 「大目に見てよ」

でもやっぱコレ↓だよねー。

Yike! 「ウヘーッ！」

使ってみたい・・・。

そうそう、日本のスバル “Subaru" の発音が「スブル」だった。「トヨ～タ～」とか「ニ(ッ)サン」と違って、聴いても全く分からなかった！
