🔶Today's Takeaways 
◇deportee
“Deportee” follows the basic pronunciation rule for similar words like “nominee” and “trainee” — the stress goes on the last syllable.
However, that rule does not always hold. You'll notice a lot of variation in how people pronounce certain words in that family. For example, I personally find it very hard to say the standard “employEe.” I tend to say “emPloyee.”
Then there's another word this makes frequent appearances in the news: “refugee.” While “refugee” is the traditional pronunciation, you'll hear plenty of people — myself included — emphasize the first syllable: “rEfugee.”
A lot of these tendencies come from cultural and regional backgrounds, among other factors. For me, the differences are cool. I like the variety. And as modern English continues to evolve, there are probably going to be more and more variations to enjoy.
◇要約
Making summary was challenging but also enjoyable.
Yeah, great job, everybody, you know. Just remember, it's perfectly normal to struggle at first. It's not easy to make summaries. The key is to keep trying, right? You'll get the hang of it.
