R: Hey, everyone, Akino Roza here. Let's have a great day.
C: Hi, guys, Chris McVay here. Achoo! I can't stop sneezing.
R: Bless you. I become a sneezing man.
(8:30)
R: OK, guys, let's practice the key sentence together. Now, remember, the nuance behind these two is completely different. "A sneezing man" versus "a man sneezing." Completely normal, right? But "sneezing man," it sounds weird, right? So, that's the interesting part. Let's practice together. First, "sneezing man?" "Sneezing man?"
(8:57)
You feel that strangeness, "sneezing man?" Now, let's try the normal one. "A man sneezing."
(9:06)
Completely ordinally, right?
"A man sneezing."
(9:13)
Great job!
(14:25)
O: Yeah, shooting a TV program and radio program in the same week can be dangerous.
C: Well, you could always quit one of them.
O: Yeah, but I want to continue because there are so many keen learners.
(keen = 熱心な very interested, eager, or wanting to do something very much)

R: Hey, everyone, Akino Roza here.
C: Chris McVay here. You know, what I really want to say, I'm deeply honored to work with you guys.
(8:17)
C: OK, guys, ready to practice the key sentence? Here we go.
"We were able to recover most of the stolen things."
As you know very well by now, the order of words in English determines the meaning. So, if we have stolen in front of things, it explains the type of things... is it beautiful things, expensive things... no, stolen things. Here we go.
"We were able to recover most of the stolen things." Try it.
(8:50)
That's right. Keep this in mind, right? Once more. "We were able to recover most of the stolen things." Go.
(9:02)
That's it. Well done, guys.
(14:24)
O: Being surrounded by friends... Hmm... 男のロマンですねえ。
R: Have you ever actually experienced it?
O: Unfortunately, not.
C: Yeah, because I'm looking around here and I can't see any.
R: No, no. That just means we are like family.
C: Ah, okay.
O: Oh!

R: Akino Roza desu.
C: Hi, guys, Chris McVay here. More immediately, I'm glad this is the last recording before lunch because I could eat a horse.
(4:56)
R: I want to browse my textbook slowly. Let’s do some practice sentences as well.
C: Good idea.
(9:38)
O: TO know is one thing. (と to の部分を強く読むのは) This is wrong, right?
R: Yes.
O: To KNOW と後ろのほうが意味的に重要です。To は軽めに読みましょう。
(14:30)
C: Yeah, actually I think we all did really well, and I hope you guys learnt a lot. But remember, practice, practice, practice.

C: Hi, guys, Chris McVay here. I wonder if you still think that Roza can be mysterious at times.
