Daily practice / Ramen

I went to an event today. It is the ramen festival. Many famous ramen shops came from around japan and opened stores at the festival. I ate ramen with sea urchin. The soup had a strong sea urchin flavour. It was incredibly delicious, so I ate it all up without leaving a single drop of soup.

Hey Reikaさん、where was the ramen festival?  It sounds great;). but I think I'd prefer tonkotsu ramen to sea urchin;)

Hey Yoshiさん, this is a little difficult because I have not read the book, but I have done my best to make a few corrections;)

Moles' robot has ears: Weasels not feeling like working and Robots understanding languages

This is a summary and my impressions of the book "Weasels not feeling like working and Robots understanding languages."

At first, the weasels thought that a robot capable of understanding languages should have ears.
Then, the weasels found out that the moles in Mole village had started selling "Mole's ear", which is a machine capable of understanding languages.
The weasels just went out to Mole village to see Mole's ear.

Lunch with My Daughter

Today I went out for lunch with my 15-year-old daughter.
Sitting face to face with her, we talked about work and my experiences traveling abroad.
We don't usually have such long talks about these things at home, so it was a very meaningful time for me.

Hello Satoさん, your writing was clear and easy to understand...I just made a few changes to make it sound more natural.  Remember, you can say "my daughter is 15 YEARS old" or "my 15-YEAR-old daughter".  I'm glad you had a nice time with your daughter.  Take care.  Phil 

Invention of Airplane by Wright Brothers

---Background--- Hello , my name is Rin Sakimi , and today I’d like to talk about the Wright Brothers and their work to create the airplane. It has always been our dream to fly. Although the airplane is a common form of transportation now, just 100 years ago the airplane was just a fantasy. Long ago, some people attached a kind of bird wing to both arms in the desire to fly in the sky.  There are also records people attempting to fly by jumping from high places.  Leonardo da Vinci was also trying to design an airplane, but records show that he didn’t succeeded. Balloons and other ideas were put to practical use as means to fly and some reached the sky , but the Wright Brothers were the first to invent a machine with the power mounted on the actual airplane.

They worked in a bicycle store. While they worked they were studied about how to build an airplane. ---Research Question--- Is it possible to create a flying machine ? ---Methods and Data--- The Wright brothers went around to a lot of universities and listened to a lot of professors about flight dynamics. 1. They were absolute amateurs about airplanes. 2. They built a plane by relying on Samuel Langley's theory of flight. 3. They built an engine based on the data they had collected. 4. They finally succeeded in the world's first manned power flight. ---Conclusions and Future Research--- On December 17, 1903, the wind was perfect for flying. They put an engine on the airplane that they had built, the “Wright Flyer No.1” and they turned the propeller. At 10:35 “Wright Flyer No.1” finally succeeded in flying in the sky. It is said that the flight time was only 12 seconds and the flight distance was just 36 meters, but this was a big step in the history of mankind. Just a decade later, in the early days of World War I, planes had already developed dramatically and were used on the battlefield.

Hey Satomiさん, I think you have understood correctly. If he "were to be believed" basically means "could be believed". He used "were to be" because it is passive...he is not saying "if I believed" or "if you believed" but more general...if anyone believed it, or if it were all true. This makes it less direct...maybe the narrator doesn't want to say that this is his opinion exactly. well done;) Phil

proposal

The purpose of this proposal is to make recommendations for rebuilding of after a major earthquake almost destroyed our beautiful town.
A strong earthquake hit our town two weeks ago and has left many important buildings seriously damaged, including the primary school, the clinic and the church, among others, which are on the verge of collapse.
Enormous cracks have appeared in some sections of the road, making it impossible for vehicles to reach many parts of the town.
After a meeting held by the city council, we would like to suggest some recommendations to rebuild the damaged areas.
Recommendations:
First of all, we should immediately begin the reconstruction of the previously mentioned buildings in order to return to our normal way of life as soon as posible. Our priorities should be the school and the clinic, so as not to interfere with the education of our children, and to provide the sick and the wounded with the treatment and care that they need.
Likewise, we need to repair the roads as soon as possible to allow access to the town as well as the return of normal transportation.
Having taking everything into consideraction, I truly appreciate that all the suggestions above would involve a considerable expenditure, but I feel that the cost would be worth it in the long term.
