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. I thought I was gonna say protein bars.

Onishi: それではさっそく、始めていきましょう。

• We always have tea in the morning.
• We had a good time at Hiroto Land.

David: Amazing.

I had a good time in the US, but I had trouble getting used to with life style difference. I usually have a light meal in the morning, but too much in the US.

David: Oh, hi there. Are you looking to polish your pronunciation? then you’ve come to the right place. Here is today’s sentence. “I didn’t know you had such a passion for curry” …

All right, there are three places we’ll zoom in on today. First is “didn’t know”. This t will disappear and it sounds like didn’t know …

All right, next up is linking such and a, such a … such a passion… /fɔ́r/ becomes /fər/, for curry … such a passion for curry …

All right, now let’s put it all together.

• I didn’t know you had such a passion for curry.

All right, now, some bonus info. didn’t know when this t disappears, it ends in n and know starts with n, so didn’t know is also OK, let’s try once. I didn’t know …

All right,

• I didn’t know you had such a passion for curry.

Wow, I didn’t know you had such a passion for pronunciation polish. Great work today, guys.

Onishi: Hey guys, when I went to the US, I was so impressed by the colorful donuts in the supermarket.

Roza: Really? I was actually impressed by the モチモチドーナツ in Japan. There are so good.

David: You know what they say, the grass じゃなくて donuts are always greener.

Onishi: となりの芝はあおい、というわけだね。というわけで、今日はこの辺で。

All: Bye.
