洋画の言葉を聞き取りたい !

ホントの英語はナンで分かれへんの?


僕らが 映画の英語(実際の英語)が理解できない理由は、彼等の日常の会話のスピードが速すぎてついて行けない事にあると思われる。
しかし そのスピードだけの問題ではないようだ。その大きなポイントは「彼等は数多くのスラングを実際の会話で使っている」ことにもある。
また、彼等の日常会話では私たちが学んだ基本的な文章構成がかなり省略されている事実がある。
また、一つの単語が多くの意味を持ち、特に私達が気が付かなかった特別の「意味」を理解しておかないと まったく別の解釈になってしまう場合もある。
ここではその一般的な「スラング」と、単語の「特別な意味」を勉強したい。
鵜田先生のお話では殆どの日本人の英語の発音は「カタカナ発音」であり、それが根本的な英語の理解の大きな障壁になっているということです。
一段落したら、次にはその発音に取り組んでみたい。カタカナ発音が身に付いた65才の今となっては修正不可能に思いますが・・・トホホ・・・。
洋画が[ subtitles ](字幕スーパー)なしでも理解できるようになれば英語勉強の「夢」が叶うことになるのですが!・・・ しかし、何といっても根本的には [ VOCABULARY ] を増やすことでしょうね。だって、知らない単語は「分からない」のですから。
