[화상 영어] 일곱번째 수업 리뷰

목차

• 1. Conversation Review

수업 날짜 : 24/04/22

 

수업의 주제는 Unwinding / Relaxing이였다.

대화를 꽤 많이 한 것 같은데, 마지막에 여행 얘기도 좀 해서 재밌었다.

Ross가 (어린)애들이랑 대화하는 것 보다 나랑 말하는게 훨씬 재밌다고 하는데, 찐웃음(?)이 많이 나오는 것 같아 내심 기분이 좋다. 원래는 5분 정도는 피드백을 해줬었는데 점점 그 시간까지 대화를 꽉 채워서 하는것 같기도 ....

1. Conversation Review

Ross : Ready to relax and take it easy for the evening?

Me : Yes, but i didn't eat my dinner so I'm little bit hungry now.

의도 : 네, 근데 다 좋은데 저녁을 못먹어서 조금 배고프네요.
의도(English) : Yes, that's all well and good, but I haven't had dinner and I'm a little hungry.

 

Ross : Today's topic or theme is relaxing and unwinding so we'll gonna have an conversation around that, I'll show you some words and relationship to the subject matter, and then we'll talk little bit about this. So, are you familiar with the phrase "zone out"?

Me : No

의도 : 아니요. 처음들어봐요.
의도(English) : No. I've never heard of it.

 

Ross : Won't you read those two sentences and tell me if you can figure out what "zone out" might mean?

Me : Okay. I think I got it but I think about how to explain this meaning in English.

의도 : 네. 무슨 의미인지는 알 것 같은데 이걸 영어로 표현을 못하겠어요.
의도(English) : Yes. I think I know what it means, but I can't express this in English.

 

Ross : Try the best you can, this is how we expand the vocabulary so tried out and I will rephrase to help you if you needed.

Me : I think "zone out" means "do not have any attention"

의도 : "zone out"은 아마 "관심을 끄다"는 의미인 것 같아요.
의도(English) : I think “zone out” probably means “do not pay attention”.

 

Ross : Do you do anything to "zone out" or that you zone out with?

Me : I didn't zone out I think, but I heard that in Korea, there is a zone out competition. I don't know how to estimate someone zone out, but there is that competition.

의도 : 저는 쉽게 "zone out"을 할 수는 없지만, 한국에는 멍때리기 대회 같은게 있다고 들었어요. 물론 멍때리는걸 어떻게 평가하는지는 잘 모르겠지만, 아무튼 그런게 있대요.
의도(English) : I can't “zone out” easily, but I've heard that there's a dumbbell competition in Korea. Of course, I'm not sure how they evaluate dumbbells, but there is.

 

Ross : So take a look at one or two those sentences there, and tell me what you think "decompress" might mean.

Me : I think it means throw out some stress.

의도 : 스트레스를 날려버리는 의미인 것 같아요.
의도(English) : I think it's meant to blow off stress.

 

Ross : Is there anything that you do to decompress?

Me : Listening to music is my way to decompress.

의도 : 저는 노래를 들으면서 decompress하는 것 같아요.
의도(English) : I think I usally decompressing while listening to a song.

 

Ross : Tell me what you think "pamper" might mean.

Me : I think it means growing up self-confidence.

의도 : 제 생각에 "pamper"는 자존감을 높여주는 것과 관련있을 것 같아요.
의도(English) : I think “pamper” has something to do with boosting self-esteem.

 

Ross : Is there anything that you might do to pamper yourself?

Me : I also do shopping when I want to pamper myself.

의도 : 저도 pamper하기 위해서 쇼핑을 주로 해요.
의도(English) : I also shop to pamper myself.

 

Ross : Are you familiar with this phrase at all? Have you heard this before?

Me : No, it's also new to me.

의도 : 아니요. 이것도 처음들어봐요.
의도(English) : No. I've never heard of this either.

 

Ross : Take a look at the sentences and tell me what you think it might mean.

Me : I think it's close to mean the word "calm down".

의도 : 제 생각에 이건 "calm down"과 유사할 것 같아요.
의도(English) : I think it's similar to “calm down”.

 

Ross : Could you tell me what you do to unwind after a long day of work or whatever really stressing you out that day?

Me : I think I just walking on the park.

의도 : 저는 그냥 산책하는 것 같아요.
의도(English) : I think I'm just going for a walk.

 

Ross : Is this something you do often or is this something that you do regularly?

Me : I think it's sometimes walking on the park.

의도 : 가끔 산책해요.
의도(English) : I go for a walk sometimes.

 

Ross : What else will you do to relax? Something new that you like to do that helps you relax after you start to feel stress.

Me : I think the best way is go for a trip.

의도 : 제일 좋은 방법은 여행가는거에요.
의도(English) : The best way is to travel.

 

Ross : Does the destination matter for you on the trip or the just leaving the place that's important?

Me : It doesn't matter but I like to go as far as possible.

의도 : 크게 상관없긴 하지만, 그래도 가능한 멀리 떠나고 싶어요.
의도(English) : It doesn't really matter, but I still want to get as far away as possible.

 

Ross : When you are on that trip, what would you like to do when you go on the trip if you are doing that to unwind.

Me : Actually I'm very talkative person, so I meet some new peoples or make some friends in there or I just zone out watching the nice view.

의도 : 사실 제가 말이 너무 많은 사람이라 여행지에서도 새로운 사람들을 만나거나 새로운 친구를 사귈 것 같아요. 만약 그렇지 못할 상황이면 그냥 좋은 경치를 보며 zone out 할 것 같네요.
의도(English) : I'm a very talkative person, so I'm sure I'll meet new people or make new friends in my travels, and if not, I'll just zone out with a good view.

 

Ross : How long do you like to spend on your trips when you wanna get away? How many days do you like to travel for?

Me : It is also as long as possible, in many reasons I usually go for a trip about 3 or 5 days.

의도 : 이것도 역시 최대한 길게 가고 싶긴 하지만, 여러가지 이유때문에 주로 3~5일 정도 떠나는 것 같아요.
의도(English) : Again, I'd like to go as long as possible, but for various reasons, I'm usually gone for 3-5 days.

 

Ross : So you probably hit a lot of the different countries then, you hit most of the countries?

Me : Yes, I enter to the London and go back home at Spain.

의도 : 네 영국으로 들어가서 스페인에서 나왔어요.
의도(English) : Yeah, I went into the UK and came out of Spain. 

 

Ross : What made you decide you wanna to do 7 weeks trip to Europe?

Me : I was always dreaming to go to the Europe when I was high school student. So when I graduate my highschool, I get some money and then go.

의도 : 제가 고등학생때 부터 항상 유럽에 가고싶다는 꿈이 있었어요. 그래서 고등학교를 졸업하자마자 돈을 모으고 부모님께 지원도 조금 받아서 바로 떠났어요.
의도(English) : I've always wanted to go to Europe since I was in high school, so as soon as I graduated from high school, I saved up some money, got some support from my parents, and went.
