NHKラジオ英会話のディクテーション「off」L179 2025/12/25

Onishi: 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。

さぁ今日も、がんばっていきましょう。

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

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

Onishi: それでは、さっそくはじめていきましょう。

• You have to take off your shoes.
• My colleague helped me out, so I'm off the hook.
• I had to take the day off.
• Stop showing off! Nobody cares.

David: Amazing.

David: All right everyone. There is no time for goofing off. It's time to polish our pronunciation. Are you ready? OK. Let's jump in. Here is today's phrase. "Everyone got off at our station" ...

Today's main focus is three words, got, off, at. Let's focus on these sounds together, as we join them and change the sounds a little.

got off at becomes got off at ... can you hear the changes? All right, try it again, got off at, Everyone got off at,

• Everyone got off at our station.

Wow, that sounds smoother already. Great work today.

Onishi: Hey guys, goof is an interesting expression, isn't it?

David: Yeah, I think so.

Roza: It's a very goofy word.

Onishi: Ah ha, what do you mean by goof?

David: Ah, it means silly or not serious, so if someone is being goofy, they are being silly or humorous or not serious.

Onishi: なるほどねぇ、そこから、ふざけるという意味合いにつながるというわけですね。よく分かりました。今日はこの辺で。

All: Bye.
