◆ その男性が……をするのは初めて
C: Well, let's write "the man's" or the first part and the whole phrase would be "the man's first time."

◆ 呼吸の仕方を習っています
J: Yes, in the dialog, he says, "How can I learn to meditate." And so, we are going to use the word "learning." And we can say this two ways. We can either say "learning to breathe," or we can add the word "how," and say "learning how to breathe."

◆ と言います
C: Sounds good to me. There's actually two ways. We can use your great suggestion, which is "says 何々."
K: Oh, that was tiny little... but thank you."
C: And we can also use the verb "tell" here. But we have to be careful when we use "tell," because in this situation, we have to say "who it is we are telling." So, here, it'll be, "tells him 何々."

J: I'm sure they did.
C: Oh, yeah, always.
K: OK. All right.
J: Way to go!
C: Nice work.
J: Beautiful.
