=============
◆ Opening
=============
(0:29)
R: Akino Roza here.
D: And I'm David Evans. Yean, yeah, I've got to hand it to you. That was a good one.
うん、君には参ったよ。それは見事だった／うまかった。
(I've got to hand it to you. = これは英語のイディオムで、「君を認めざるを得ない」「君のやったことは立派だ」といった意味。直訳すると「それを君に手渡さなければならない」ですが、実際は「称賛する・感心する」という意味になります。I have to give you credit / I have to admit you did something well.)
=======================
◆ Pronunciation Polish
=======================
(13:25)
D: OK, it's time for today's pronunciation polish. First, let's check out today's sentence.
- How's everything going?
- How's everything going?
All right, two key points today. First, let's link "How's" and "everything."
- How's everything
- How's everything
All right. Next is the falling intonation of this wh-question.
- How's everything going?
- going
- going
All right. Remember the shape of this sound. It's very common. So, let's master it together.
- How's everything going?
- How's everything going?
All right. Don't worry if it's a little unnatural at first. As you learn the tone and intonation of English, it will become much more comfortable. Great work.
============
◆ Ending
============
(14:33)
D: Hey, Roza, I have a question.
R: Uh?
D: Does this show... uh... have like a dress code?

R: Akino Roza here.
D: And I'm David Evans. Yeah, I heard "white," "white" was in there?
O: Oh, year.
=======================
◆ Pronunciation Polish
=======================
(13:04)
R: Everyone, the time has come for our pronunciation polish corner. Are you ready? Today's sentence is...
- But I want to come back in the future.
- But I want to come back in the future.
In today's sentence, we have linking, combined sounds, disappearing "t"s, the works. So, let's get into it.
今日の例文では、音のつながり（リンキング）、音が合わさったもの（結合音）、消える"T"の音など、あらゆる要素が含まれています。
(※「the works」は口語表現で、「全部入り」「一式」「ありとあらゆるもの」という意味です。everything included / all the usual or expected elements / a full set of features.)
- But I
- But I
- want to
- want to
- in the
- in the
All right. Let's go in bigger chunks.
- But I want to
- But I want to
- in the future
- in the future
All right, full sentence.
- But I want to come back in the future.
Great job. One more time, fast.
- But I want to come back in the future.
Great. Now, as a bonus, let's practice using "wanna" instead of "want to." Ready?
- But I wanna come back in the future.
- But I wanna come back in the future.
You did great. Even if you didn't do it perfectly, don't worry. Just keep on practicing.

D: Oh, what is it?

(12:53)
D: All right. It's time for today's pronunciation polish. First, let's take a look at today's sentence.
- Why is everything going wrong?
- Why is everything going wrong?
All right, just a couple of points to focus on today. First, let's link up "is" and "everything."
- is everything
- is everything
"Everything" plus "going," we have two "g"s. So, drop one.
- everything going (エヴリスィン ゴーイン)
- everything going (エヴリスィン ゴーイン)
- is everything going
- is everything going
All right, and as we go with the full sentence, feel the rhythm of this, and the falling intonation.

All right. Let's do that one more time.
- Why is everything going wrong?
Woo! Great work! But don't worry if it goes wrong. It'll all come right in the end. Great work today.

D: Uh, no comment.
R: Guys, I'm not sure when we went overtime, or how, but at this point, I think it's best we say goodbye.
O: Yeah, I agree.
All: Bye!
D: No hard feelings, yeah?

(0:20)
R: Akino Roza here.
D: And I'm David Evans. Don't forget to do your homework, Senesi.
=======================
◆ Pronunciation Polish
=======================
(13:06)
R: Hey guys, it's the corner you've all been waiting for. It's time to practice our pronunciation. Here's today's sentence.
- If you've run out of places to visit.
- If you've run out of places to visit.
Today, we'll be practicing linking and the ア sound in "to." Ready? Here we go.
- run out of (ランナウロヴ)
- run out of (ランナウロヴ)
- to (タァ)
- to (タァ)
- to visit
- to visit
- run out of
- places to visit
Great. Now let's do the full sentence together.
- If you've run out of places to visit.
Faster,
- If you've run out of places to visit.
Great. As a bonus, we can also say run out of (ランナウラァ), like this...
- If you've run out of places to visit.
That's how it sounds when you say the sentence even faster. If you have a chance, try that as well.

◆ Ending

O: Oh no! My phone battery is running low.
D: Oh, that's too bad. I guess you can't play your games any more, huh?
