接ぎ木英語 (3)、周囲の人たちは？　　Grafted English (3), what about the other people?

先日の無料英会話道場で、映画の中の英語やネイティブ同志が話す自然で速い英語は理解するのに難しい、限界がある、との思いが吐露されました。私も同感です。

ニュースのように既知の事実を聴き、又は、テーマを決めて話す場合には相当程度、英語を理解できる人、あるいは、いくら英語検定テストで優秀な成績を収めている人でも同じように感じる人は多いでしょう。

外国語を勉強している多くの人は外国語の理解度には限界もあることを知った上で、それでもそれに挫けずに努力を重ねる価値と成果を楽しむことが大切です。

In a recent Free English Dojo (learning session), a few members expressed his feeling that it is difficult to understand natural and fast English spoken by native speakers and/or English in movies, there being a limit in understanding English. I agree to them.

Many people who can understand English to a considerable extent when listening to known facts such as the news or speaking on a specific theme may feel the same way, and it may be the case with even those who have achieved excellent results in English certification tests.

It is important for us many people, those who are studying foreign languages, to know that there are limits to their understanding of foreign languages, and yet not be discouraged by them and enjoy the value and results of their efforts.
