R & L – TAKE CARE! Not only is the difference between R and L hard for Japanese speakers to make, it is also hard for you to hear. Look at the diagrams on the blackboard that show the differing tongue positions for R and L. Now repeat after me and try to make a difference between the following words: 1 river liver 2 wrong long 3 crows close 4 brew blue 5 crime climb 6 correct collect Question: Listen to me, and circle the word you think you hear.

Very often a mistake with L and R can cause problems as it creates a new word in English. Sometimes this new word has a different meaning, so an English speaker can quickly work out what is being said. For example: free flea frog flog reef leaf royal loyal cram clam Question: What do the words in bold 太字 mean?

Sometimes, however, the new word is very common. For example: 1 grass glass 2 road load 3 rain lane 4 row low 5 raw law 6 pray play 7 breed bleed Question: Listen to me, and circle the word you think you hear.

TH: θ & ð Although the θ and ð sounds are not the most common in English, they do unfortunately occur in some of the most frequent words in the language. Look where my tongue is and repeat the θ sound after me. Now try ð (= θ”). Repeat after me the following very frequent English words: the then this that these those they them their there other though than thing three thus Question: Which of the above have the voiceless sound 無声音 θ and which the voiced sound 有声音 ð? Write the appropriate symbol (θ or ð) next to each word above.

Usually a mistake with th can be understood by a native speaker of English because the meaning of the new word is nearly always completely different. For example: 1 think sink 2 thin sin 3 thing sing 4 theme seem 5 thaw saw 6 thick sick 7 thigh sigh 8 thumb sum 9 youth use Question: What do the words highlighted in bold above mean?

Some th words can be particularly difficult for Japanese students to pronounce when they are in consonant clusters.子音連結 Let’s practice the following very tricky words by repeating after me: fifth cloth 布・布巾 clothe 着せる ( cross 渡る、怒っている、十字 close 閉める ) sixth cloths 布巾の複数 clothes 衣服等 ( crows カラスの複数 claws かぎ爪 ) twelfth

Finally, today’s tongue twister: The sixth sick sheik’s sixth sheep’s sick 六人目の病気の長老には、六番目の羊が病気だ

SPORTS & GAMES In Japanese, when you play a game or a sport, you use する or やる. Very easy! However, in English, it’s not so easy. There are 4 rules to remember: Rule 1 If it is a sport that uses a ball or something similar, for example a shuttlecock or a puck,

then use the verb play:

He plays golf Can you play volleyball? Rule 2 If it is a GAME, then use the verb play: They like playing poker We played pachinko last week Rule 3 If it is a MARTIAL ART, then use the verb do: She does judo I can do karate Rule 4 ANYTHING ELSE, uses the name of the sport as a verb: スポーツの名前を動詞化する I ski She skated yesterday

With your partner, write down the name of three new sports or games in the table below in rows 1, 2 and 3, the place where they are played, and any equipment needed to play them. Write down also which verb the sport uses. Three examples are already given.

SPORT/GAME PLACE EQUIPMENT NEEDED PLAY/DO/ OWN NAME

A soccer pitch boots, ball, goals play B pachinko pachinko parlour money, cigarettes, no brain play C skiing in the mountains skis, stocks, skiwear, goggles ski 1 2 3

swimming (b) 120,000

martial arts (c) (d)

boxing 2,000 (g)

ice hockey (h) 1,600

Now check with a partner and then listen again.


24

B & V – TAKE CARE!

Look at me and watch the differing lip positions for B and V. Now repeat after me and try to make a difference between the following words: 1 bat vat 2 bet vet 3 best vest 4 bury very 5 Bulgarian ブルガリア人 vulgarian 卑俗な人 6 TB 肺結核 TV 7 boat vote

Sometimes, a mistake with B and V can be a problem as it creates a new word in English. Mostly, this new word is not very common or has a totally different meaning. For example: 1 bigger vigour

2 ban van 3 bending machine 曲げる機械 vending machine

4 curb curve 5 verb verve

6 dub dove 7 bowel vowel

Question: What do the words highlighted in bold mean? Finally, today’s tongue twister: Vincent vowed vengeance very vehemently

ヴィンセントさんが復讐をとても熱狂的に誓った

MAKING YOUR QUESTIONNAIRE Today (30 minutes) and next class (30 minutes) you will be designing and writing your questionnaire.

TYPES OF QUESTION There are three main ways of finding out information in a questionnaire. All of them are useful. � Yes / No questions

e.g. Do you like learning English? Yes No

� Multiple-choice questions

e.g. Do you think that English is:

(a) easy to learn? (b) quite easy to learn? (c) difficult to learn? (d) very difficult to learn? (e) impossible for non-native speakers to learn?

� Open-ended questions (any answer is OK)

e.g. What do you think about learning English?

THINK ABOUT Ø How many questions do you need?

Ø Make your questions clear and easy to answer.

Ø Remember the different question types above, and try to use a variety of them.

Ø Of course, your questionnaire must be in English.

In order that you gain the most benefit from what we will be doing, you are strongly advised to learn the following English food and drink related vocabulary. Note the following: Ø There will be no vocabulary test. However, learning these words will help you understand better



meaning of any words you don’t know in a dictionary, make sure you choose the meaning that is related to food and drink.

32

OTHER DIFFICULT PRONUNCIATIONS So far we have looked at R, L, V and TH. There still remain, however, three more English pronunciations with which Japanese students tend to have problems.

1. SHI ~ SI The reason why Japanese students find it difficult to differentiate these two sounds is obvious: the Japanese language has only shi but never si. Repeat the si sound after me. Differentiating between them is very very important as problems might arise! Repeat the following words after me: 1 ship sip 2 sheep seep 3 sheet seat 4 she sea / see / C 5 shin sin 6 sheen seen Question: What do the words highlighted in bold mean?

2. YE & YI The modern Japanese language has sounds for ya, yo and yu (や, よ and ゆ), but not for ye or yi. Repeat the following words after me: 1 year ear 2 yes S 3 yearn earn 4 yeast east 5 yell L

3. WO & WU Japanese speakers often have problems with wo and wu. Try repeating the following words after me: would / wood woman wolf won’t wool wound 怪我 Try these four minimal pairs:最小対立語 woe 悲哀 : owe 支払う義務がある war : oar woos 求愛する : ooze にじみ出る woken : oaken オーク材の

Finally, today’s tongue twister: How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood? もしマーモットは薪が投げられれば、何本くらい投げられるだろうか

Ø 冒頭 : なぜこの話題にしたのか。何を知りたかったのか等。

Ø 手だて : 調査方法・内容を説明する等。

Ø 結果 : 集計したデータをグラフ・表・図等を使いながら、解析し、その傾向を明らかにする等。

Ø ディスカッション: 調査の前、結果の予想は何だったのか。結果は予想通りだったのか等。

Ø 結論 : 調査に成功したのか。勉強したのか等。

発表スタイルの心得話し振り声が小さいと聞こえないだけでなく、採点者（担当教官）が採点できなくなる。自

分のペースで話すように。姿勢アイコンタクトを忘れないで。フールネームで自己紹介してください。メモスピーチを暗記すると、話し振りが不自然で単調になってしまう。スピーチしな

がら意味を考えられるようにカードや紙切れにキーワード等を書いておくこと。

顔を上げずに下ばかり見て，文書の棒読みは減点になる。ポスター聞いている生徒の理解を高めるため、スピーチしながらポスター等を指差すこ

STRESS In our final pronunciation practice, we look at stress. English has a very strong stress system.

In many cases two words have similar meanings – but one is a noun and one is a verb. In all the words below the stressed syllable 音節 is in bold. The first syllable is stressed in nouns and the second is stressed in verbs. NOUN VERB a. convert 改宗者 convert 改宗させる・帰依させる b. permit 許可(書) permit 許可する c. survey 調査 survey 調査する d. export export e. insult insult f. protest protest Question: What do the words in d, e and f above mean?

In some cases, however, the two words have totally different meanings. In all the words below the stressed syllable is in bold. Once again, the first syllable is stressed in nouns and the second is stressed in verbs. NOUN VERB a. subject テーマ、科目、対象等 subject 晒す、当てる等 b. object 物体、目的、対象等 object 意義を申し立てる等 c. contract 契約 contract 罹患する、収縮する、緊縮する d. defect defect e. desert desert f. pervert pervert Question: What do the words in d, e and f above mean?

Stress can help differentiate a compound 複合語 from a phrase.句 In the compounds on the left, the first word in the compound is stressed; in the phrases on the right, both words are stressed. COMPOUND PHRASE a. blackbird カラス black bird 黒い鳥 b. White House ホワイトハウス white house 白い住宅 c. darkroom dark room d. blackboard black board e. Japanese teacher Japanese teacher Question: What do the words in c, d and e above mean?
