自分の紹介のつもりで、英会話との関係を書きます。皆さんもよろしければどうぞお願いします。
英会話を再度やり始めたのはそろそろ定年も近づき、何か定年後も楽しめるものをと考え、自分の不得意な英会話を思いついた。
海外に出たのは職業柄40年ほど前で早かったが、山元の現場に入る仕事で、立派な英語は必要なかった。ボディランゲイジでごまかしていた。でも海外での異文化との出会いは新鮮で楽しかった。この気持ちは今も残り、英語をやる理由になった。
まず、NHKのビジネス英語をはじめた。一番難しそうなのに取り付いたら、何となく見栄で替えられなかった。
インターネットで遊んでいて、２年前、オンライン英会話を見つけた。自分の弱点は会話力だと分かっていたので、申し込み、はじめた。会社はECCからEOLに変わった。いずれも先生はフィリッピンの人。最近は英語の勉強よりも若い女性との会話を楽しんでいる気がする。
定年後こちらに住んだため、地元との縁が薄く、自分の最後の地？でもう少しなんとか関係を、という気持ちもあり、地元の会話クラブに１年ほど前から入った。こちらは週１回１時間強で、英国人の先生。勉強というより、地元の人とおしゃべりを楽しむ感じである。
今回もう少し広い人とコミュニケイトしたいとこのコミュニティを開いた。

A world Nordic skiing meeting is held now in Sapporo,Hokkaido where I live in.
A player and people supporting come from various countries in the world.
Words of various countries fly. I will be happy if I can talk with these people fluently.
By the way, the relations of me and English conversation began in the end of March last year.
I informed it of EC by a commercial when I watched a TV tackle of Takeshi Kitano of The Asahi television in a certain evening.
I thought what purpose I tried to challenge it without in particular and applied.My english is very unpolished because I studied it at school 60 years ago.
I am asked what I study English conversation for from many young people. Even myself do not understand the reason.Surely I may prevent old man becoming senaile.
Any way,I thank and feel happy to be able to study with
many young people every day.

TO Mr shiro
Good morning,How are you getting along?
Thank you very much your kind information every day.
I had a big joy last night because our Japanese jumping
team won the prize of No,3. That's great honor of our
country,Don't you think so?
Any way, I'm very delight to know that our friends
of community are increasing gradually.
Really I feel this winter is very strange,and is influenced by global warming. We have a calm winter climate this season.

It is very warm at 16C. in day time here, in Sanda. I went to the volunteer for creating beautiful wood land. The buds of a kind of azalea（コバノミツバツツジ） are already swelling. The spring looks to be in a short range. They will bloom in the early April.
But in Hokkaidou, there has been a ski competition. Japan is a long elongated islands from north to south.

Sorry, Misan, I am not familiar with Mylo.
What is that?
I heard the name Mylo as a kind of a milky drink in a long ago. Of cource, it is not that one, isn't it?
Honestly speaking, I am on the opposite side of you. I am not interested in such new gadgts, especially electic gadgets.
In my hobby, farming, I don't like using machines like a cultivator. I use just a hoe with my strong arms and hands. When I cut a tree, I like to use a handosaw not a chainsaw. You might say it is a different issue. OK, it could be.

Thank you very much for your reply.I feel awfully sorry to have asked such a stupid question.Mylo is the new gadget released by Sony. This is new type of micro computer
and has much function,more than I-pod.But I don't know quite well.
I have totally forgotten that you are graet nature lover.I respect that you stick to your principle.
I'm very shamful to be worked by commercialism.

Good morning Shiro.today it's the girl's festival on March 3.But I haven't any daughter,so I have no celebration of Hinamaturi in my house.
Thank you very much always your kind care.I took this picture at the park near of my house last fall. My skill of camera is not so good, It's difficult to focus any object.
By the way,I talked about the election and vote of member of the Diet delegation with Mabel at her lesson. Especialy about the governor of April and member of the house of councilors,But such a talking is very difficult for my English speaking level. I want to improve early my skill of speaking like you.

Good morning, Misan. It is warm today, too. I am much the same as you because I have had no sisters and no daughters.
Mabel likes to discuss the politics and politicians who she wants to be. Generally speaking, Filipinos like to discuss politics and Japanese don't although philippine policy haven't done so well, unfortunately.
We, Japanese have had poor experience to discuss it in public evem in Japanese. That is why you felt difficult in talking it with Mabel. Familiar topiq to you like American Baseball intrigues you in excitement that adds more energy to you.
Anyway, it is happy for you and me to talk with young ladies even in English. Let us enjoy it.

First of all thanks for opening this "community"
To members
I've been a student at an English conversational school for around six years or so.

to my life.
I'm really looking forward to meeting members on this
site.
Tha's for now. YOROSHIKU

街の変わり者
いつも朝晩、犬と散歩しています。そのとき、特に夕方は、変わった人と見えていると思います。というのは：
１．写真にあるように、私の犬の足が癌手術のため1本ない。
２．子供のための安全パトロールで、黄色いジャンバーと緑の肩掛け派手な格好をしている。
３．後ろ向きに歩いている。これは犬が3本足のため、ゆっくりと歩き、普通に歩いたのでは運動にならないためです。
４．いつも手元のメモを見ながらぶつぶつつぶやいている。これは英語の教科書を破いて持ち歩き、暗記しているのです。
横を歩いたり、自転車に乗っている人は変なやつと見ているでしょう。でも気にせず、大きな声で皆に「こんばんは」と挨拶しています。

英語を勉強する目的は？ 通訳？
私が英語を勉強していると知ると、皆、何故、英語をと質問します。私は「たっぷり時間があるし、何かやりたいものだから。英語を勉強すると、色んなことに触れる機会ができるし、格好いいから」と答えています。
でも加えてもっと具体的な目標はないの？外国行きは、住むつもりなら良いが、１週間程度の旅行ではちょっと満足できない。
そこで、最近、日本がまもなく外国人介護士を受け入れであろうという記事を見つけた。介護施設で世話を受ける老人に対し介護士がもっと必要であることは明らかである。介護士はフィリッピンやその他アジアの国からやってくると期待されている。もちろん、彼らは日本語を習ってくるであろう。しかし、日本語は外国人にとって難しい言語である。
そこで私は英語学習のすばらしい目標を発見した。私は日本人患者と日本語にあまり強くない介護士の通訳になろう。多分、私は患者でもある。だから、きっと自分の苦しさや、希望を英語で上手に説明できるであろう。そして介護士から良い対応処置を取ってもらえるであろう。私はみんなの感謝の中で通訳として働くことができる。終わりになるまで。それが私の英語学習の目標である。
