Oh, oh, oh! It’s pouring outside!
It looks like the weather is only getting worse. Let’s play it safe and call it a day. We’ll resume the meeting at 10:30 tomorrow.
Needless to say, go straight home, no stopping for a drink somewhere. Okay?

I couldn’t understand anything he was saying. I give up.
It’s not a big deal. The important thing is to continue learning.
As long as you don’t give up, you’ll get there in the end. Besides learning English is a lot of fun, right?



I traded dollars for yen.
My dad trades currencies. So, he’s always checking exchange rates.
When the yean appreciates, prices in Japan go down.
Something seems off about this money. I think this might be counterfeit.
I have no idea how cryptocurrency works.



It’s not as well-known as Valentine’s Day.

Somebody told me that November 22nd is “Iifufuno hi” or good couple day in Japan.
But I don’t understand what it means.
It’s a play on words.
Play on words? Let me think. I give up.
Well, one is ichi in Japanese. So, 11 can be read as Ii meaning good.
And 22 can be read as fufu in Japanese.
It means a married couple.
Oh, I see. That’s why it’s “Iifufuno hi.”
Right. Anyway it’s a nice day for couples to spend time together.
I don’t think we have a day like that in Canada.
Maybe Valentine’s Day has a similar meaning.
It’s not as well-known as Valentine’s Day.

It’s not as well-known as Valentine’s Day.
It’s not as delicious as my burger but it’s not as delicious as Kenta’s.
I’m as tall as Kenta but I’m not as tall as Leo.
I have as many books as Jenny, but I don’t have as many books as Haruna.

It’s a nice day for couples to spend time together.
How are you going to spend your winter vacation?
I’d like to spend a few weeks on a warm island.
How much can we spend on the trip?

It should be well-known.
That’s a shame.
