DMM 英会話 41日目

Teacher: Marven E

Today's lesson is very valuable, because the words in vocabulary list are what I want to know:

  • congestion
    • e.g. Traffic congestion is becoming a big problem on this highway.
  • rush hour
    • e.g. I always leave work a little early to avoid rush hour.
  • commute
    • e.g. Many people commute by car and bus.

I had some times to introduce my commute or our traffic system, though I couldn't express well. Before I know the word "commute", I explain it "when I go to office from my home". Today I remember very convenient word!

The first lesson of Serbian teacher. Today's topic about electric car. In Serbia, about half of cars are Japanese maker's. I'm glad to hear that.

Today's surprising is there are no words and idioms which means "paper driver". I know "paper driver" is Japanese-English, but I thought there was some expression also in English.

By the way, I cooked dinner with my wife. I really don't like cooking, but I tried. She and her parents told me that it's better if you could cook, considering taking care of children in the future. If we cook together, I can cook with talking. It's not boring, better than cooking alone obviously.

The words my pronunciation is not good are following:

  • machine
  • recognition
  • labor
  • faces
  • currently

Especially "currently" is difficult to me.

Today's teacher is not so fun, because after I answer the question she doesn't reply and doesn't say her opinion not so often. I want to have conversations and share our opinions

At the beginning of the lesson, the teacher said to me "You are very handsome, good looking!" many times. I was really confused to hear that. I'm not use to handle such a situation...

Tomorrow, I have a checkup at 3:30 pm. It restrict me to have a food after 5:30 am. Therefore I'm planning to get up at 5:00 am and eat breakfast in 30 minutes. I don't hate checkup itself, but I hate to feel hungry before taking it. I'll try to work from 6:00 am to 3:00 pm tomorrow.

We have 5 minutes after finishing today's material. So we talked about teacher's father's job. He is riding on the ship, and came back home rarely. 9 years ago when she got married, there are no internet on the middle of the sea. There is only telecommunication and could sent only short and expensive text messages. But now, they can communicate with video chat even in the middle of the sea. I think this is a big progress, and noticed internet infrastructure could make people happier.
