    Today's shocking NEWS !

    I would like to tell you my today's shocking news !

    Recently on the way to work, I always have a book of English idioms in my hand.
    I bought it a very, very long time ago. I don't even remember when I bought it, but obviously I didn't use it much at that time.
    But now I found plenty of useful idioms inside and currently, it is my current favorite book.

    The book contains 32 lessons and I am at lesson 9 now.

    And there then, this morning I found something shocking !

     



    Did you know that "quite a few" means "MANY" !!!????

    I didn't know that !!!!


    I use the word "quite" a lot.
    I use " a few" a lot.
    But I never imagined that these words can make an opposite meaning of "few" !


    The most sadness saddening thing is that this idiom is not for upper level advanced.
    Pre-intermediate, maybe. :(


    Like I've experienced today, there are lots of fun and surprises in studying English !
    I like this language very much ! :D :D

     

     

    (Excellent demonstration of your proficieny in English. The errors you have don't distract the reader of your meaning. Good job.)

    troubling thoughts. 厄介な思考。 今月に僕は新しい仕事が始めた。僕はパッケージを提供します。家の前にパッケージを置きにくいです。一部の重いし、大きいし。大変な。 最近、僕は日本語を勉強すぎません。でもお金がほしい。間違え、お金が必要. 今全部を考られはお金です。でも！皆さん約束、頑張ってみます。いい明日といいですが！！ I started a new job this month. I am a package deliverer. Placing the packages in front of people's homes is rather difficult. Some of them are heavy and large. Lately, I haven't been studying japanese to my full potential. But I want money. No, let me correct myself. I am in NEED of money. All I have been able to think about is money. BUT! Everyone, I promise this, I will do my best. I hope that tomorrow will be better. -ロブ

    Perha    ps I couldn't get rid of my anxiousness. 

    <s>At least there is two reasons.</s> (This sentence implies a rebuttal)There is at least two reasons.


    1. I couldn't run perfect    ly in the general election in Japan. 
    2. I received some rejection letters via E-mail. 

    When I was young I thought that nobody can rob my dignity, but now, I think money     can get rid of it easily. 

    However I've been laying down on the bed while bro    wsing italki via iPhone all night. 

    So, <s>I'm</s> I will just be patient enough to fall asleep after I try to make an appointment for a new client and finish today's <s>rutein</s> routine work.

    Because at least I think that nobody can change my mind except me.

    もう一つのよじ - just ONE more errand 今朝、お母さんは僕に用事を手伝ってくれれがほしいかった。 Today, my mother wanted me to help her out with an errand. お母さんは今日１用事がいると言いました。嘘だよ。 She said she only needs 1 errand. What a complete lie. 私たちは清算したり、買い物をしたりしました。 We went to pay bills, did some shopping, etc. ぼくは　お母さん、用事をーひとしかすると言いましたか。 I said "You said you only needed to do a single errand." 「待た待た。もっと一時だけ。」　三回を言いました！ Wait, just one more hour. She said that three times. さようなら土曜日と思います。 Goodbye to my Saturday. それから、私は母に彼女の友達の家の外で待たれる。 Then she made me wait outside her friend's house. 「次回したら、悪い息子さんになります。家に歩く」と言いました。 I said to her "If you do this next time, I will be an awful son and just walk home." ごめんと言いましたの時、母をやるしました。 When she said I'm sorry, I immediately forgave her. 母にうらみをだけない。次回妹を聞いたほうがいいです。 I can't hold any hostility against my mom. But next time, it would be best if she just asked my sister.

    I'll TREAT you to dinner. I'll send you a drink. HOW about having dinner together sometime? The word 'stand' is the wrong verb. I can not determine what you want to do with the dinner and drink.

    Nostalgia. Both the word and meaning are pleasing.

Typing in Japanese is very difficult. 間違うの時、 エラーにくれました。 When I was wrong, I received and error. そうして、電子メールを読んだの時、僕の言葉をわかりませんでした。 Then when I read my read my e-mail, I didn't understand my own words. ゆっくり書いた方がいいと思いました。 Then I thought it would be better if wrote them slowly. 二番目の電子メールを完了した一時間を可決した。大変ね。 The second e-mall I completed took 1 hour to finish. Now that's terrible
