★ two times
O: Hey, guys, do you say "two times" instead of "twice"?
R: Yeah, either one is fine.
D: Yap. This works OK.
R: And actually, when you say "two times," it puts a bigger emphasis on it. So, "I tried two times already." It feels heavier.

D: Nice image, Roza. These phrases all have a feeling of continuing to do something. So, imagine the relay or the tug-of-war when someone is in the middle of something, we use these phrases.

◆ Typical Expressions / Practice
============================
(9:00)
D: All right, everyone, it's time for the practice.
