Total Beginner: Malay Sentence Structure #1

Following this post ( https://www.italki.com/en/post/rgEFP835lHQxQzZVm0UqbB )  I did a podcast on how to succeed as a language learner and what might be your inner (in your mind) obstacles.

You'll hear a story of my student which I took through an experience and helped her realize what was standing on the way of her success. You'll also hear my story how I became the best teacher out of 4 thousand teachers and learn some lessons from it too. 

Finally you can adjust your attitude and how you look at the future by following the advice I gave to my student and in the real time see the difference.

I have your best interest at hand so go ahead and enjoy being the 'brightness adjuster'.

Much love.

こんにちは！
Japanese daily life podcast のAtsushiです。
このPodcastは、日本語を勉強しているみなさんに向けたPodcastです。

今日はN2です！
今日は、からといって、をやります！

たとえーだとしても、というような意味で、あとには、ーとは限らない、とかーわけではない、など否定の表現が続きます。


ということで、例文いきましょう！


・海外に住んだからといって、英語が話せるとは限らない。

・日本人だからといって、日本語が教えられるとは限らない。

・運転になれているからといって、事故らないとは限らない。

・好きな会社に入ったからといって、うまくいくとは限らない。

・ N1だからといって、ペラペラに話せるとは限らない。

という感じです。
どうでしょうか。


大人だからといって、なんでもできるわけではないですね。
5年日本語を勉強しているからといって、簡単にはなせるわけではありません。

毎日勉強するのは大変ですが、少しずつだけでもPodcastを聞いたり、言葉に出したりして日本語を覚えていきましょう！

ぼくのオンラインレッスンでは、いろんな形でレッスンができます。日常会話だけでもいいですし、ニュースを読んだり、ネットの記事を読んだりすることもできます。

もし、日本語をもっと話せるようになりたい！と思ってる人は、ぜひぼくとお話しましょう！

お待ちしていますね！


ということで、今回も最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！ではまた！

#305 N2 〜からといって、について！

JOHN: Hi, Alice, it’s John. How are you? 
ALICE: Oh, hi, John! I was just thinking about you.
JOHN: That’s nice. I was wondering if you’d like to go to a 
movie tonight.
ALICE: Sure, I’d love to! What’s playing?
JOHN: I was thinking about that new comedy Lights Out. What do
you think?
ALICE: Sounds great!
JOHN: OK, I’ll pick you up around 7:30. The movie starts at 8:00.
ALICE: See you then. Bye!



LANGUAGE NOTES
• Hi, Alice, it’s John: Hi, ____, it’s ____ is a casual and friendly way to say hello on the 
phone. Although “it’s” means “it is,” it is used to mean “I am” here.
• Oh, hi, John! Notice the rising intonation here. Alice is excited to hear from John and is 
very pleased that he called her.
• I was wondering if you’d like to ... This is a polite and indirect way of asking “Do you 
want to …?” John is nervous and does not want to appear too direct or bold. Notice 
how the question goes up at the end, which shows that he is not overly confident.
• Sure! I’d love to means “Yes, I would love to.” Notice that Alice is very enthusiastic 
and friendly. She wants John to feel comfortable about asking her out on a date.
• I was thinking about … / What do you think? Again, John does not want to appear 
too bold. He wants to give Alice a chance to suggest a movie.
• Sounds great! Is an informal way of saying “That is a good plan.”
• I’ll pick you up is an informal way of saying “I’ll come to your house so that we can 
go together.”

"Broad strokes" is an idiom that means in general terms rather than in detail. We use it when talking about our understanding, or perhaps how far along a project is. I hope you enjoy today's short discussion of this business English idiom.
