Every spring, the cherry trees all over Japan burst into bloom.
It's a nice and warm day.
I went to a park to see cherry blossoms with my friends.
We had lunch under a cherry tree.
I felt the meal more delicious than usual.
We had a nice day!
Cherry blossom viewing is a special event for Japanese people.
今回の作文、1センテンス目はトラッド・ジャパンからの借用です。
冒頭でいきなり"the cherry trees"はおかしいかもね。
桜は日本ではおなじみだけど、外国ではそうじゃないものね。
【昨日の日記】
添削前:
A famous journalist, IKEGAMI Akira, proposes some good ways to improve writing skills in his book.
One of them is to copy beautiful passages on your own hand.
He said that he used to copy senior journalists' articles.
It's more effective than just reading.
What do you recommend to improve writing skills in English?
To improve them in Japanese, I recommend copying passages in novels written by stylists.
For example, TANIZAKI Junichiro, DAZAI Osamu, MISHIMA Yukio and so on.
添削後:
One of them is to copy beautiful passages BY your own hand.
To improve in Japanese, I recommend copying passages in novels written by stylists.
"on your own"って熟語に引きずられて間違えちゃった^^;
添削者とは別の方に、英語力アップの勉強法をアドバイスしてもらえました。
日本の小説で、英語に翻訳されたものを読むことです。
あらすじがわかっていれば、読みやすそうですね。
コメントありがとうございます。
Lang-8は楽しいですよね。
勉強になるし、国際交流もできるし、最高です!
もうかなりいいんですよ(^^)
