◆ 100歳の桃子
K: Momoko who is 100 years old. 長いですね。Contract できませんかね？
(contract 収縮する，圧縮する，狭める)
C: Sure, sure we can. One way we can write it is 100-year-old Momoko.
C: Short and sweet.
K: So, you put hyphens.
C: Yes.

◆ ７段の
J: Right. 7-tier. And you can use any number with this. It could be 5-tier or 3-tier or... If it's really, really big, maybe 100-tier, (a hundred-tier), I don't know.

(tier = 階層、段)

◆ ひな飾りの「飾り」は？
C: Oh, that wasn't in the dialog, was it?
K: No, it wasn't.
C: No. It's a new word.
K: You are right.
C: In English, I would recommend writing the word "display." So, it'll be hina-doll display.

◆ ひな飾りに感心しの「感心し」は？
J: Right. We're going to use the word "admire."
J: So, it would be "admires the display."

◆ それを美と呼びます
K: a beauty ですよね？
C: Oh, that's right. Yeah, that's right from the dialog, right?
C: Well, here are two ways we can write this. And the first, uses the verb "call." And it'll be "calls it a beauty."
K: OK.
C: And the second way, we can use the verb "say." And it'll be "says it's a beauty."

C: Oh, yeah.
J: I'm sure they did.
C: Always.
K: Oh, yes. All right.
J: Wonderful.
K: Great.
