Today, we’ll be focusing on the word… Challenge English, unlike Japanese, when borrowing a word from the Japanese language tends to keep the original meaning of the word being borrowed. E.g., typhoon, kimono, tycoon The meanings of those words don’t change, at all… However, the opposite isn’t true When a word in the English language is borrowed and used in Japan You’ll find the meaning is jaw-droopingly different… First, the word in English gets katakanized, thus losing its original sound… And, then if it’s not totally skewed in terms of sound, it then takes on A totally different meaning than it’s original meaning Thus after it’s re: washing and reconfiguration it becomes WASEI-EIGO Words or phrases like: MY PACE (マイペース) meaning: to do something at one’s own pace or COST DOWN (コストダウン) meaning: to ask someone in a retail store to drop the price or give you discount So, those are just a few examples of how words in the English language become corrupted when it’s borrowed and used in the Japanese language.

CVC “et” Family Words | Re:Visited
#Word #Families for our #Early #Learners – #Early #Readers
P-Week
Check us out on the web at: www.americanschoolofenglish.info
Today we’re going to do some “et” family words :
今日、私たちはいくつかの「et」家族の言葉をするつもりです:
bet , get , jet , let , net , pet , set , vet , wet , yet
Learning the ending sounds does two things, 1 helps #Esl learners properly pronounce the vowel a,e, I, o, u sounds along with the consonant sounds. And that is important in the beginning stages of reading or speaking–specifically for ESL students,and 2, helps ESl students become successful readers.
Learning the words plus the sentences is important.
Here are today’s beginning reader #sentences :
1.Let’s make a bet?
2.Can you get me a drink?
3.Let’s ride on a jet plane.
4.Let me play, too, please?
5.Catch a fish with the net.
6.I have a pet snake.
7.Set the table ,would you!.
8.My father is an animal vet.
9.Cats don’t like to get wet.
10.Are you finished , yet?
