2025.1.27 L196 高度な関係代名詞修飾
🔓 This is the part that I think is strange.
❖この文は、関係代名詞節の空所(□)の位置がわかりづらい文。この文は think の内容を説明する節に主語がなく、ここが空所。この「私が、□は奇妙だと思っている」と the part が結びつき、「私が奇妙だと思っている――箇所」となります。このレベルの文を反射的に作ることができれば上級者ですよ(^ ー ^)

2025.1.27 (1.14) LA山火事 被害拡大 STRONG WINDS COULD FUEL LOS ANGELES WILDFIRES 強風がロサンジェルスの山火事を助長する恐れ
The Los Angeles area is bracing for possible setbacks in the fight to contain massive, deadly wildfires. The return of intense weather threatens to fuel flames that have been burning for almost a week.
"The National Weather Service is predicting close to hurricane-force level winds and so we're making urgent preparations. My top priority and the priority of everyone else is to do everything we can to protect lives."
Santa Ana winds are common in Southern California during cooler months. But the fear is their speeds and the dry air could make the already dangerous situation even worse. Weather officials forecast strong winds will stick around through Wednesday.
Authorities are also keeping an eye out for those looking to take advantage of the situation. Dozens of people have reportedly been arrested, including for looting.
Officials say the disaster has killed at least 24 people and the number of buildings damaged or destroyed exceeds 12,000.

🔶Today's Takeaways ★「~地域」と英語で言いたいときはarea?district?それとも?
◇What exactly is "area"? When I think of "area," it's a bit vague, without set borders.決まった境界がない地域 It usually has a center and then goes out and imagine distance from there.
district
◇Yeah, it refers to locations with clearly defined boundaries, usually established by the government. It is often used to mean administrative districts.
region 広大で地理的な地方>area 境界が曖昧な地域>district 境界が明確な地区
・zone 特徴から分けた地帯
関東地方the Kanto region
greater Tokyo 首都圏(Greater Tokyo行政的にはっきりと定義された名称)
◇In both America and Japan, certain regions are prone to dry conditions depending on the location. So please take care to avoid fires.
