やさしい英語会話 (272) English Slang (1)

      Today I listened to a podcast called "やさしい英語会話 (272) English Slang (1)".

They talked about English slang such as  "sick" , "bottom line", "unreal" and so on.

Some English words takes on  good connotations and bad ones.

      For example, "sick" has three means. At first, 'be under the weather with'. Next, 'be cool' and at last, ' gross'.

Figure

       Hi!!!!!!! Do you know the competition, called 'Figure'? Today, let me introduce about 'Figure'.      What's "Figure"? It's one of time trial competitions. However, there are  just a bit different from gymkhana and dirt trial. We have to drive a car accurately and quickly because it is competed on narrow box and slalom. High accuracy driving skills are required.        We have to enter front wheels in this small box without departure from the course. Very hard!!     This is slalom. We have to drive with using reverse gear without step on "tubes". Unexpectedly, it's easy.      These cars were contributed by "Hiroshima Toyopet". I'll practice my hardest to live up to their expectations. おはようございます☀ 昨日はフィギュア車両の寄贈式がありました。広島トヨペット様よりヴィッツ、トヨエースを寄贈していただきました。これからも日々練習に励んでまいります。この度はありがとうございました。今後ともよろしくお願いします。 pic.twitter.com/V65saBdU4D — 広島大学体育会自動車部 (@humc505) March 30,...
