    庭づくり　🌸🍏

    うちにはかなり大きい庭があります。しばふは二つ(/二面)あり、花だんもあります。小屋もあります。
    庭で時間を過ごすのは/が好きです。雨が降っていない限りほとんど毎日外でお昼ご飯を食べます。それと今日のように良い天気の日(は/に)、外で勉強するのも好きです。
    庭づくりは父の役目ですが私も時々手伝います。庭でいつもすることがあります。かれた花や枝を切り落としたり、いらない植物/草を抜いたり、種をまいたりします。そして今年は以前以上(に)野菜を作っています。
    子供の頃から何かを作ろうとする年が多いですが今年は違います。去年よく生長[成長と書くのが一般的です]したフダンソウだけではなく、うちで人気があるにんじんやトマトだけではなく、今年は今まで植えたことなかった野菜も植えました。パ<s>ッ</s>プリカやズッキーニや、私が一番楽しみにしている大根も植えました。
    日本料理に興味があるので大根で/を料理してみたいです(/大根を使った料理をしてみたいです)。<s>なのに</s>でも/しかしイギリスでは大根を売っているお店は少なく(て)<s>い</s>、それに高いです。でも日本でよく成長する植物はだいたいイギリスでもよく成長します。（例えばうちの庭にはアジサイやツバキもあります。）そういうわけで、父に頼んで植えるようになりました。
    初めてまいた種は残念ながら鳥に食べられました。第二回の挑戦では温室の中に植えたので今はよく芽生えています(/今は芽が出て上手く育っています)。まだまだ先ですが料理して食べるのが楽しみです！

    日本語でも同じように言わないでしょうか？ 「鈴木一郎はプロ野球選手を引退したかもしれないが，球場にアマチュアとして戻ってきた」 おっしゃるように筆者がイチローの復帰があるかもしれないと思っているのか，もしくは引退したことをまだ現実のように受け止めていないようなニュアンスを含ませているのかもしれません．

    I was wondering (if): Is this expression only for asking a favor? I was wondering. Did you lock the door? I was wondering if you had locked the door? I was wondering if you could cook dinner by yourself tonight. I’m wondering if you can cook dinner by yourself tonight. Do some of the above sentences sound only like I’m asking a favor? Or do they depend on the situations? Thank you

    I'm Japanese. This is based on my English study experience.

    First, English and Japanese are completely different languages, so studying Japanese on and off for two years for you is still very short even for holding a conversation. Don't worry. I can see your experiences in Japan and in your class with your teacher. Just think it's like that, relax, and don't think too much.

    I have worked in the US after studying English for about 10 years including school and self-study but in the US, I couldn't even order food at first.


    About methods or tricks, I don't think they are difficult although it takes a very long time.

    1. Master at least major grammatical rules. You don't need to stick to textbooks. You can pay attention to grammar in any situations; while you are reading Japanese or talking. Then, you'll eventually not think about grammar. For my English, 6-year study in school wasn't enough. I needed more.

    2. Experience many situations and learn set phrases for them.

    Books, TV, imagination, and etc., anything will do. You can also do this with 1. I wrote down all expressions I had not been able to say in specific situations where I had actually experienced and imagined. I still keep doing this.


    I hope this helps.

    Blake Schillaci, Emily- I've learned some differences in expressions and words.

    I can see that most English natives would understand each other. So do we in Japan.


    Tom, yeah, I would understand all native English speakers if they spoke international English.

    tempus.edax.rerum, That's interesting. I hear English in Scotland is hard even for English natives from other areas but I am surprised to hear your experience.

    There are some YouTubers who are English natives (mostly British) and I do not understand at all what they say. I can see that English natives would perfectly understand them, though. This may be associated with their accents that I am not used to.

    Thank you, Peachey, Jim.

    They would avoid using their thick local accents or slang. I was wondering that even so, there could sometimes be difficulty in understanding each other. But I understand.

    For exemple, in my country, Japan, I sometimes have difficulty in understanding (especially old) people from the countryside especially when they casually talk to me. When they keep speaking, I get lost.

    Different English regional accents: How much do native English speakers understand each other?

    British, American, Australian, New Zealand, etc:

    Native English speakers would understand each other if they speak with the standard accents.


    Then, what about regional differences in one country and/or in different countries such as southern American accents vs. other American accents vs. Northern British accents vs. others?

    How much do they understand? Is there a situation where they do not understand at all? or so on.


    Thank you
