NHKラジオ英会話のディクテーション「発言パターン ー 真意を尋ねる①」L104 2026/9/3

Onishi: いやぁ、ドライブ行って、急に泊まらなくちゃっていうときありますよね。でも、なんかそういうときにかぎって、ホテルはとれないんですよ。宿泊探しに四苦八苦・・・

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: ちょっと微妙だったね先生、ごめん。Akino Roza here.

David: And I'm David Evans. Well, be careful Sensei, it's not safe to drive when you're tired.

Onishi: それでは、さっそくはじめていきましょう。

What do you mean?

• What does that mean?
• Why do you say that?
• Where is that coming from?

David: Amazing.

Why do you say that? I was there and I thought it was good. If you made a mistake, it was only you who noticed that.

Roza: Well guys, you don't have to worry about making mistakes because we're gonna practice our pronunciation together. You ready? Today's phrase is,

• What do you mean?

Now, this phrase can be said as What do you mean?, but also you can say What do you mean. So, today we'll practice that version.

Let's start by practicing the tree words combined together, What do you ... Great work.

Let's add mean to it.

• What do you mean?

Really feel the sentence, just flow off of your tongue.

• What do you mean?

All right. Ready to try at natural speed? Here we go.

• What do you mean?

Let's try one last time.

• What do you mean?

Well, that was a short and quick one, so keep on practicing to make it smoother and more polished. Great work.

Onishi: さぁ、Practical Usageで、プレゼン最悪だったって悩んでた人、いますよね。That's totally me. I always dwell on the small mistakes I made even though I'm the only one who notices them.

Roza: あー、先生、そんなさみしいこと言わないで。Don't worry, I notice all of your mistakes.

David: Roza, no, you can't say that.

Onishi: I could see that coming.

Roza: No, I just didn't want you to feel alone.

David: Everyone, mistakes aren't as important as how you recover, so you're OK, Sensei.

Onishi: ありがとうございます。というわけで、みなさんも同じように、しっかりとプレゼンをやってみてくださいね。というわけで、今日はこの辺で。

All: Bye!
