    Some questions and answers. Please correct if you have noticed mistakes. Thanks. Q. Is money important? A. Yes it is important for me to live. And for most of people I think. Q. Do people in your country save their money? A. Yes they do. As far as I know, they save their money more than the people in the US or UK. It is because of the anxiety for their future. For example pensions. The amount we get after retirement is getting less and less because of declining of birthrate. We are going to have less people to pay pension. Q. What sort of things young people spend their money on? A. In the case of my friends, mid 20’s of single girls, they spend their money on their cloths, social activities like eating out, having drinks, traveling and some hobbies. I guess boys also do it on their cloths, shoes, and probably video games. So basically they do it for themselves. Q. How do you feel when you don't have enough money to buy something you want? A. I would feel sad. But I don't recall when is the last time that happened to me. I normally buy things which are affordable. I don't really want something very expensive. If it was a little bit over my budget but I really want, I would save money for a while and come back when I got enough money. Any corrections are welcome! Thank you!

    My Favorite TV Series What is your favorite TV series? My number one favorite is the Game of thrones!!! I just watched all seasons this year actually although it has been on the air since 2011, and I have heard the name before. I watched the first episode by myself few years ago, but I stopped watching it in the middle because it was quite gross and dark located in very thick snowy forest. It made me feel cold. But after I watched the movie "Me before you", I found the actress Emilia Clark is adorable, at the same time I started having an interest in British English so I started watching the Game of thrones again. The more I watched, the more I was into it although I needed to read some spoiler because there were too many names of the characters and the families to understand the story. I have heard the shooting of season 9 has finished, I can't wait for watching it!

    Recyclable Packing (翻訳練習)

    「スキン」のフィラソフィ(フィロソフィー/概念)はシンプルです。「地球にコストがかからないスキンケア」というモットーはただ手頃な商品を作るだけではなく、美しいスキンケアを作ると同時に私たちの大事な環境に最低限の負担をかかる(への負担を最低限に抑える)とも意義があります。いつも持続可能な考え方と働き方によって、努力しています。(いつもできる限りの持続的な考え方と行動によって、これを成し遂げています)


    「スキン」のほとんどの正規品はPETプラスチックを利用しています。PETプラスチックは植物性の生素材なので、100%リサイクル可能です。全てのパッケージングはBPAフリーです。我々は、全てのスキンの容器をリサイクルすることを奨励しています。プラスチックパンプがポリプロピレンで作られたている一方で、中は普通の金属のスプリングを使っています。それらのスプリングもリサイクル可能です。各地にはなって再利用する前に、容器と分けってリサイクル洗浄過程を行なっています。(これらは再利用のために各地へ送られる前の洗浄工程の間に分けられます。)

    自然とオーガニックの原料を使用することによって、我々の体(健康)と環境を保全しています。「スキン」の処方は灰色の水にならないので、下水管に流してからも、川、動物、植物にダメージを与えることが心配する必要がありません。我々の処方は生物分解可能なので、下水管を汚染することがありません。スキンのフェイシャルと体のスクラブは自然と生物分解可能なエックスフォリアント(スクラブ剤)しかつかってなくて(おらず)、プラスチックの微粒子がは一切使ってありません。(われていません)

    Our approach to natural and organic ingredients helps to keep both our bodies and our environment healthy. Sukin formulations are grey water safe, so you can feel confident that what you are using is not going to damage our rivers, animals and plant life once it heads down the drain. Our formulations are biodegradable, avoiding contamination in our waterways. Sukin face and body scrubs are free from micro plastic beads, and employ only natural and biodegradable exfoliants.

    Diary 6/8/2018 Hi there, I have came back to italki after pretty long time and want to restart learning English again! I am going to write whatever I thought here. My goal is to be able to use very natural English so don't hesitate to correct anything you notice please. Especially I am not good at using prepositions.. Thanks! Since it was me and my boyfriend's our first day off after the roster of ours so I have got enough sleep and woke up at around 9 am this morning, then did one week's worth of the laundry. It was very nice weather outside, I felt the climate is getting warmer. Here in Australia is in winter now. But still the sky today was very clear blue colour and beautiful. It reminded me of the reason why I like the place where I live even though I was getting bored of this my current life such as repetition of the same thing. Sometimes I am asked why I don't work in my home country Japan. People says Japan is rich and such a nice country. And I agree with some part of it.. Japan is safe and developed, very convenient as the public transportation is perfectly work and the food there is very good. I miss them. On the other hand, the work there is required very high quality, people cares about the details, I felt people are observational. For example the cloths that you put on.. if you chose wrong one for the season or weather on that day, people will look at you. But here, apparently no one cares about someone else's cloths. I like it. I don't need to worry about so much about what I wear. And another big benefit working here for me is being able to get longer holidays to travel. Yes I like traveling. But when I worked in Japan, it was really hard to get long holiday. I still remember that was my first time planning to go to overseas with my friend. I requested to my boss to have 4 days off which included my original days off Thursday and Sunday, so technically requested for only 2 days off, yet he refused at the beginning and we argued.lol That was unbelievable but the good thing is they have changed the system to make it easier to get holidays for the staff after that happened. Anyways here at my current work, we are able to get holidays at least twice a year of around 2 weeks holidays and I am happy with that. My boyfriend and I are planning to go to Japan and some another country in south east Asia this coming holidays on December. Either Thailand, Vietnam or Indonesia... Any suggestion with correction would be appreciated! :D

    Here is my opinion. 「〜するようにしましょう」is normally used for suggestions or when something is instructed by someone else. For example, 食べた後は歯を磨くようにしましょう。- Let's brush your teeth after eating. 毎週日曜日は掃除をするようにしましょう。- Let's do cleaning on Sundays. Can be translated to "Let's do something" and sounds like its not only one time but every particular occasion. 「〜ように話す」depends on the context but can be translated to "like" or "to" For example 彼は王様のように偉そうに話す。- He speaks arrogantly like a king. 理解できるように話す。- Speak to be understood. 「〜ようになる」"be like" "become like something/someone" 彼のようになるのが夢です。- My dream is to be like him. なるようになる。- What will be, will be ( this is a kind of idiom) There might be more ways to use but these examples came up to my mind. If you have some examples with full sentences it will be easier to explain or understand :)

    We also should get rid of our common sense then. I guess someone have done some senseless thing first.

    私の休み。。。

    今本当に疲れています。今朝、少し歩いて、アデルとヨガをしました。

    月曜日までエコーびわで止まれても、できますか?→たとえ月曜日までエコー湖に泊まれたとしても、するべきか?

    一日中悲しかった。→一日中寂しかった。

    実家にいったあとで、私はチャージヤーを無くした。→実家に行った後で、私は充電器を持っていないことに気がついた。

    今日働くようになるんだろう?→今日働けるだろうか?

    アデルのうちでチャージャーをおえないばよかったです。→アデルのうちに充電器を置いてこなければよかった。

    私にもうすぐ送てくれるといいんですね。→私にすぐ送ってくれるといいな。


    げんざいおきなわじんとアイヌ人まだしいたげられた人々ですか? →現在沖縄人とアイヌ人はまだ虐げられていますか?

    食べすぎると、お腹が痛いです。元気になるようにしたい。→元気になりたい。/ 健康になりたい。

    しゅるいの食べ物を食べるようになりました。→色々なものを食べられるようになりました


    English:

    I am really tired right now. Today I walked a little, then did yoga with Adele. Even if I could stay at Echo lake until Monday, should I do it? I’ve felt lonely all day long. After I went to my parent’s house, I realized I didn't have my charger.

    Will I be able to work today? I wish I didn't leave my charger at Adele's hosue. I hope she sends it to me soon.

    Now adays are Okinawan and Ainu people still oppressed?

    When I eat too much, I feel sick. I want to get to the point where I become healthy. I have reached the point where I can eat a variety of food.
