Hiya guys! Long time no post, English voice message in the comments
below!!やっほ~皆、元気にしてますか?久しぶり過ぎてなんかすみませんね!!
さぁ英語!
English time!
Two people are talking to each other online.
A is from New Zealand and B is from Japan
"Over yonder" - Old English that might sometimes be used jokingly to
say 'over there'
Chilly - Another way to say 'Cold' - (寒い)
"That sucks" - A casual way to say "That's too bad" (残念だな)
Nuts - Another way to say 'Crazy' (めっちゃ変!)
Tbh - Online text speech for "To be honest"(正直言うと)
"Sweating buckets" - Sweating a lot (汗を沢山書くって事!)
"Like mad" - A casual way in English to say "Like crazy" / "A lot" - (大変に・とても)
Aさん:How's the weather over yonder? It's gotta be pretty chilly right?
Aさん:向こうの天気はどう?寒いだろう?
Bさん:Yeah it is, our water pipes have frozen solid so I'm gonna try and
heat them up or I'll have to skip having coffee this morning.
Bさん:そうだね、水道が凍ってきたんだけど、温めてみないと今朝のコーヒーを飲めなくなるんだ。
Aさん:Ahh that sucks, have you been building any snowmen?
Aさん:そりや残念だな、雪だるまとか作ったりしてたかな?
Bさん:Haha...I think I only really did that when I was a kid. I know it
doesn't snow in Auckland but snow really isn't all that fun. Anyway
how's things over there?
Bさん:(笑)。。子供の頃だけに作りましたよ!オークランドに雪が降らないのは知ってるけど、楽しくないですよ、雪って。。。でそっちはどうかな?
Aさん:It's pretty nuts tbh, I've been sweating buckets on some days but
on others it has been raining like mad.
Aさん:めっちゃ変ですよ、正直言いますと。。。汗を沢山かいたりしてる日もありますけど、雨が沢山降ってる日もあります。
Bさん:Typical Auckland weather then right?
Bさん:じゃ普通のオークランドの天気だね?
Aさん:Yep, exactly.. We really don't get proper seasons like you do in Japan.
Aさん:その通りだ。。日本のようにしっかりしてる季節がないからね。。。
Bさん:Oh well, try not to get too jealous of our 'proper seasons' while
I wait for these pipes to thaw out ok?
Bさん:そっか。。まぁ僕は家の水道を直してる時にあんまり嫉妬しないで
-----------------------
Take care guys and I'll see you later :D
