NHKラジオ英会話のディクテーション「創造を表す動詞⑤ ー build、construct、produce、create」L106 2025/9/8

Onishi: いやぁ、古代文字の解明かぁ。爆速コンピューターがあれば、研究も大いに進むかもしれませんね。長生きしなくちゃ。

ラジオ英会話、ハートでつかめ英語の極意、講師の大西泰斗です。

Roza: Akino Roza here.

David: And I'm David Evans. Let's get started.

Onishi: それでは、さっそく始めていきましょう。

• I've built a strong relationship with my colleagues.
• They're constructing a new bridge.
• Who produced this stone tablet?
• The government is working to create new jobs.

Roza: Fantastic.

First, it's best to master the basics. Please focus your mind to produce the result. If you hurry to do a lot of things, it causes just to create problems for you.

Roza: All right guys, well, if you want to produce results with your English, you have to practice your pronunciation. Here we go. Today's sentence is "I wonder who built it" ...

We'll focus on two points, linking and the /ə/ sound in who. Ready? repeat after me. built it ... who built it ... the who is very short and small making the /ə/ sound, who built it.

Excellent, now, let's do the full sentence.

• I wonder who built it.

Great work, guys. Keep on going.

Onishi: Hum, it's best to master the basics. It's very true for language learning as well. We need to focus on grammar and basic vocabulary at first, right?

David: That's right, set up a solid foundation for your learning.

Roza: Exactly.

Onishi: がんばっていきましょうね。というわけで、今日はこの辺で。

All: Bye.
