Onishi: “Travel around the world”? oh, for me, “Travel around Shikoku” sounds a lot better.

Roza: Hey everyone. This is Akino Roza.

David: And I’m David Evans.

Onishi: それでは、さっそく始めましょう。

• He was on his tiptoes looking around.
• I don’t want to depend on that show forever.
• He was being rude on purpose.
• We’re on a very tight budget.
• We’re on a very tight schedule.

David: Great job.

I wasn’t late on purpose. I depended on the case my friend drive me but he is sick. I needed to be here on my own. I am sorry.

David: OK everyone, are you ready to polish your pronunciation? Great, let’s get into it. Here is our sentence for today, “We have enough savings to live on for a while” … Today we’ll focus on linking, and there are two points for today.

Live on, live_on … great. Next is for a, for_a … live_on for_a while …

All right, now let’s use those both in our full sentence. Here we go.

• We have enough savings to live_on for_a while.

Oh, that’s great, so shiny, so smooth.

Onishi: ふーん、徳島の魚の姿ずし、ぼうぜとか言ったかなぁ。食べてみたい。

David: Me too, me too. I’ve heard it’s really good.

Onishi: Really?

Roza: 徳島の話を聞いて、得した気分だね。

Onishi: というわけで、今日はこの辺で。

All: Bye.
