Do I make myself clear?
I watched the movie Sister Act 2 with Whoopi Goldberg on Satelite TV channel with Japanese subtitles. I could listen hear in English only one phrase, 'Do I make myself clear?' because when I have kept watching Matrix, the manager of the company which Mr.Anderson worked at said to him the same dialogue/thing. I thought about that phrase as meaning 'Do you understand?'. I decided that I'll avoid using that phrase, though. (I don't want to use that phrase, though.). Anyway, the movie, when I turned off the Japanese subtitles, suddenly (changed into/became) a the completely different movie absolutely. I have often been at a loss when I try to write in English, but I remember the fake idiom 'step by baby step' that I made by myself (at such a time/awhile ago). Do you understand, by the way?
hehe, you're right. The phrase, 'Do I make myself clear?' is very confrontational and domineering. It's hilarious at times though.
I watched the movie Sister Act 2, with starring Whoopi Goldberg, on a satellite TV channel with Japanese subtitles. I could listen English only hear (or understand) one phrase “Do I make myself clear?” because when I have kept watched The Matrix, the manager of the company which Mr. Anderson worked for said to him the same dialogue to him. I thought about that phrase meant “Do you understand?”. I decided that I should avoid using that phrase though.
Anyway, the movie when I turned off the Japanese subtitles, suddenly, changes the different movie absolutely the movie suddenly turned into something entirely different (???). I have often been at a loss when I try to write in English, but I remember the fake idiom 'step by baby-step' made by myself such a time which I made up some time ago. Do you understand by the way?
There are some parts which I don’t get. Apart from that though, very good writing! I actually like The Matrix too, even if it is 10 years old. ちょっとわからなかったんだけど、残り文には良い書き方だよ。実は僕はメーツリクスも好き、たとえ十歳なんだ。

ミスター・アンダーソンが働いている会社の管理者が,同じ台詞を彼に言ったからね。

そのフレーズを使うのは避けるべきだって決めたけどね。

ところどころちょっとわからなかったんだけれど,残りの文は良い書き方だよ!実は僕もマトリックスが好きなんだ,たとえ10歳でもね。

In the above sentence, I tried to say "If I turned off the Japanese subtitles, I didn't understand mostly what they said."
上の文で言いたかったのは,「もし日本語字幕を消したら,ほとんど彼ら言っていることを理解できない。」ってこと。
There is completly different movies from with subtitles and without subtitles.
字幕付きと字幕なしは,完全に違う映画だね
Please correct again if possible.

どぅあいめいくまいせるふくりあ?
I watched the movie Sister Act 2 with Whoopi Goldberg on Satelite TV with Japanese subtitles.
衛星放送で,ウーピー・ゴールドバーグ主演映画『天使にラブソングを2』を日本語字幕付きで観た。
I could hear in English only one phrase, 'Do I make myself clear?' because when I kept watching Matrix, the manager of the company which Mr.Anderson worked at said the same thing.
「どぅあいめいくまいせるふくりあ?」のワンフレーズだけ聴き取れた。なぜなら,マトリックスを見続けたとき,ミスター・アンダーソンが働いている会社の管理者が,同じことを言っていたからだ。
I thought about that phrase as meaning 'Do you understand?'.
僕はそのフレーズは「理解できますか?」を意味すると思った。
I decided that I'll avoid using that phrase, though. (I don't want to use that phrase, though.).
そのフレーズを使うのは避けようと決めたけれど(そのフレーズは使いたくないけれど)。
Anyway, the movie, when I turned off the Japanese subtitles, suddenly became a completely different movie.
それより,その映画,日本語字幕を消すと,突然全く別の映画になっちゃうんだよなあ。
I have often been at a loss when I try something to write in English as well, but I remember the fake idiom 'step by baby step' that I made by myself awhile ago.
同様に,僕はよく英語で何か書こうとすると,途方に暮れるんだけれど,ちょっと前に自分で作った「よちよち一歩ずつ」っていうイディオムを思い出すんだ。
Do you understand, by the way?
ところで,わかりました?
hehe, you're right. The phrase, 'Do I make myself clear?' is very confrontational and domineering. It's hilarious at times though.
はは,正しいわ。そのフレーズ「どぅあいめいくまいせるふくりあ?」はとっても対立的(たいりつてき)で傲慢(ごうまん)なものよ。時には滑稽(こっけい)だけれどね。
