Ohnishi: 母さん、ぼくのあのメガネ、どうしたんでしょうね。えぇ、夏、三河湾の海水浴で海に落とした、あのメガネですよ。

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: Hey everyone. This is Akino Roza. Ready for today’s lesson?

David: And I’m David Evans. Ah, Ohnishi-Sensei, I found your glasses you left them in the restroom.

Ohnishi: さぁそれでは、さっそく始めていきましょう。

Roza: OK guys, it’s time to practice. These phrases are pretty short, so try to memorize them so you can say them smoothly when the occasion comes up.

David: These phrases show the other person that you understand how they feel or that you feel sympathy towards them. So, let’s practice together. I’m sure you’ll use them someday. Here we go.

• I’ve been there.
• I know what that’s like.

Roza: Continuing on.

• I feel you.
• I fell for you.
• My heart goes out to you.

David: All right, here is a couple more.

• That’s too bad.
• What a shame!
• What a pity!
• That sucks.

Roza: Great job, everyone.

David: Sometimes it’s difficult to master all the phrases as someone who learn the foreign language. I know what that’s like, but keep it up. Great work.

David: Sensei, did you really lose your glasses in the ocean?

Ohnishi: Yeah, that’s a real story. ぼくはあの時ずいぶん悔しかった、だけど、いきなり風が吹いてくるもんだから・・・人間の証明、名作でしたね。

Roza: ねぇ先生、なんでこういう時だけかっこつけるの？

Ohnishi: ぼくは常にかっこいいでしょ、というわけで今日はこの辺で、せーの・・・

All: Bye.

Roza: うん、そういうことにしとこ。
