¡Hola! Mucho gusto, me alegra demasiado empezar este nuevo episodio para ustedes en SPOTIFY. Vivo en un país donde no se habla español y sé lo difícil que puede ser aprender una nueva lengua. He sido estudiante de una lengua extranjera como inglés y francés, y yo se lo que se vive en el intento de aprender. Así que voy a hacer como si yo fuera tú y te enseñaré de una manera como la que que a mi me gustaría aprender. !Vamos que podemos!

Introducción al Podcast

Speaker 1: For me, having a dumbphone would be …dumb. I really like surfing the web on my phone to find out about things. If I hear the name of an actor I don’t know about, I can look them up, or if I‘m in a new place and I want to find a restaurant to go to, I can find somewhere easily. Plus, I love Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter. I follow loads of celebrities and I love to watch concerts and live-tweet what is happening. Without my smartphone, my friends wouldn’t know what I was doing. It would feel very strange.

Speaker 2: I’m seriously thinking about getting a dumbphone. I hate how the battery on my smartphone is in control of my life. I always have to find somewhere to charge the phone when I’m out and I’m always worried about it. I also don’t like the way search engines record your history and use it to sell you things. I feel as though my attention is always taken away from everything I do with my smartphone because I use it so much. I was with a friend the other day and after a while, we were sitting there not talking, just looking at our phones. It was like our phones just killed the conversation. We didn’t even realize it was happening.

Speaker 3: I like the idea of a dumbphone. I’m just not sure if I would like it in practice. I travel a lot with my work, so it really helps being able to access my inbox when I’m out. If I didn’t, I would spend all my time in the office answering emails. I also have a favorite podcaster who I listen to all the time when I’m traveling. I can download his latest episode and pass the time when I’m on a flight or a train. I do enjoy being offline as I feel as though I am always using my phone to communicate, with email, Skype, phone calls, and text. But I think if I didn’t have access to the Internet most of the time, I would worry.

こんばんは！
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。


今日はあいづちについて話します！
レッスンの中で出てきたトピックです。

ぼくも英語のあいづちをマスターしたいという気持ちがあります。それで今日は日本語のあいづちをいくつか紹介しますね！


あいづちにはいくつかパターンがあります。

 ① 聞いているとき 　はい
　そうですか
　うんうん
　へー
　なるほど
　それはおもしろいですね
　
　  ②共感するとき 　そうですね
　そう思います
　わかります
　そうですよね
　いいですね
　  ③ おどろいたとき 　本当ですか！
　それはすごいですね！
　そうなんですね！
　すごい！
　そうなんですか！
　えー！ 
 ④ 話をひろげるとき
　それでどうなったんですか 　それからどうなったんですか
　つづきを教えてください　
  ⑤ 確認するとき 　それは～ということですね
　それはこういうことですか？
　つまり〜ということですか？ 
 ⑥ 感謝の気持ちを伝えるとき 　ありがとうございました
　とても感謝しています 

などがあります。

まだまだあると思いますが、今回はここまでにしますね。 日本ではあいづちをすると、相手の話をちゃんと聞いてますよ、というサインになります。

海外ではあいづちをしすぎると良くない、ということも聞きます。でも、日本語を話す時は、あいづちを使うといい会話になると思います。

関西弁は本当にあいづちをたくさん使います。
うんうん、ほんで？
で、それからどないしたん？
そんなアホな！
マジで！

などなど、本当にたくさんあります。

ぜひ練習してみてください！

僕とのオンラインレッスンでは、僕のリアルなあいづちをたくさん聞くことができます。興味がある人はぜひお話しましょう！

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！
