ディクテーションは面倒くさいけど、力はつく(ような気がする)。
UNIT 39
- Do you think we could reschedule?「予定を変更させていただいてよろしいですか」
- Here's a simple and polite way to ask to reschedule.
- Just because you learn this phrase, don't automatically assume others actually can reschedule. So if they can't, give a polite, "I understand. Thanks for your consideration."
- come up = (問題などが)持ち上がる、生じる
- Something came up, so I have to go home. (ちょっと用事ができたので家に帰ります)
- pity = 哀れみ、かわいそうなこと、同情、残念なこと
- It's a pity. (残念です)
- It is a pity that you should have to put up with such brutalizing conditions. (あなたがそれほどまでにひどい状況に耐えなければならないとは残念です)
