視聴者の皆さんが一番苦手とする英語、それはズバリ「日常英語」ではないでしょうか?ビジネス英語やプレゼン英語は型が決まっていますが、日常会話は使う単語は中学レベルなのに、テンポが速く、音が変化し、意味がつかみにくい…。実はここが一番の難関です。今回は、これからの季節にぴったりな映画『ホーム・アローン』の名シーンを使って、中学英語レベルのシンプルな会話を「ネイティブの音」で話すための発音トレーニングを行います。喉奥発声まずは英語の発声練習で軽くWarm upしましょう!英語の発音に重要なのは「喉の響き」と「息の流れ」です。英語は「喉奥」から声を出すことで、英語らしい太い響きが得られ、特に母音が豊かに響く様になり、言葉が相手に伝わりやすくなる。1.欠伸をして喉奥を広げる2.ソフトパレットに息を当てる3.喉をリラックスさせて声を出す① hah~hah~hah~high(x3) | It's higher than I thought.② mah~mah~mah mom(x3) | Your mom looks so sweet.③ ha~ha~ha~hand(x3) | Add a handful of pepper. ④ ma~ma~ma~man(x3) | His dad is a handsome man.⑤ sah~sah~sah~salt(x3) | Sprinkle some salt on it. 息の流れを止めずに発音することで、意味ごとのかたまりで発音できる様になる。また発音に息が絡むことで子音の輪郭がはっきりし伝わりやすくなる。またリズムは「長短」を繰り返す感じで、意味の強い言葉が長く発音される様にしましょう。① Sah sa (x3) “silent” (×3) | You should keep silent.② Fa fa (x3) “family” (×3) | That's one of our biggest family events.③ Thah tha (x3) “thoughtful” (×3) | What a thoughtful decision you made.④ Ta ta (x3) “Tangle” (x3) | Let's take a look at the tangle.⑤ Ka ka (x3) “casted” (x3) | Casting games for tuna is very popular.ゆっくりから徐々にテンポを上げていきます。必ず一息で繋げて発音できる様にしましょうMerry Christmas./Me ri Kris mus/「メリークリスマス」May I sit down?/Meai Si(t) Daun?/「座ってもいい?」That's my granddaughter up there,/thats mai Grand Dah der up Their/「あそこにいるのが私の孫だよ」the little red-haired girl. /thuh Li do Re(d) Heir(d) Gerl/「小さい赤毛の女の子さ」She's about your age. /Shee za Bau chur Eij/「君と同じくらいだね」Do you know her?/Dyoo Nou (h)er?/「彼女のこと知ってる?」You live next to me, don't you?/yu liv Neks(t) mi Doun chu/「君、私の隣に住んでるだろ?」You can say hello when you see me. /Yoo kan Sei he Lou wen-yu See mee/「私に会ったら、挨拶してくれていいんだよ。」You don't have to be afraid./Yoo doun Hav tu Bi a Freid/「怖がらなくて大丈夫だ。」There's a lot of things going around about me, /Theirz-a Lah duv Things Gou-ing-a Raund-a Bau(t) mee/「色々と噂になってるけど」but none of it's true.

英語と日本語、「はっきり」の根本的な違い「英語は、単語同士を滑らかにつないで発音する(リンキング)のが良い」と聞いたことがあるかもしれません。しかし、「一語一句はっきりと発音した方が丁寧で通じやすいのでは?」と疑問に思いませんか?実は、英語の「はっきり」と日本語の「はっきり」は、根本的に方向性が異なります。
Parashat Reeh - Insights and stories on mitzvah of Tzedakah by Rabbi Benjamin Lavian
In this week's teaching on Parashat Re'eh, we explore how Moses sets clear distinctions between clean and unclean foods in Deuteronomy 14, and why these instructions remain vital for Messianic believers today. We then turn to Romans 14, a chapter often misunderstood as abolishing food laws. Instead, Paul is addressing a very specific cultural issue: the prevalence of sacred meat sacrificed to Roman gods and sold in the marketplace. By understanding the Roman world—where nearly all meat passed through pagan temples—we see that Paul's words are not about negating Torah's dietary instructions, but about avoiding judgment and division in the community when believers wrestled with questions of conscience regarding idol-sacrificed food. Rather than dismissing Deuteronomy's food laws, Paul affirms them by pointing his audience back to love, unity, and holiness in the Messiah. This episode challenges us to re-read Romans 14 in its historical and cultural context, recognizing that Paul was dealing with idolatry and community tension—not overturning God's eternal standards of clean and unclean foods.

The Torah tells us to give Tzedakah, and warns us to not to give with a negative heart. Pirkei Avos says that a Chasid gives, and wants others to give as well. What should be our perspective about being asked for Tzedakah, and about asking others to give Tzedakah? Have a good Shabbos

We like to maintain optionality and delay decisions if possible. The idea of being pigeonholed into one path irks us.

We like to maintain optionality and delay decisions if possible. The idea of being pigeonholed into one path irks us. But Moshe tells the nation that we must make a choice: "Behold I have placed before you today a blessing and curse." The path of blessing is the total acceptance and adherence to God and His word. The path of curse is the repudiation of God and His Torah. In this very special edition of the Parsha podcast, we argue that the choice of which path to take exists on two fronts. There are two choices of which path to take. There are two forks in the road. Neither choice is easy, but one is decidedly less easy than the other.– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –This Parsha Podcast is dedicated in the merit of a successful surgery for Moshe Ben Dalya.

Parashat Reeh & Chodesh Elul - Time to reborn by Rabbi Benjamin Lavian
The Parsha ends with a delineation of the festivals. When discussing Passover, the verse notes that for 7 days we eat matzah because we left Egypt within great haste.

The Parsha ends with a delineation of the festivals. When discussing Passover, the verse notes that for 7 days we eat matzah because we left Egypt within great haste. The Exodus was so rapid and frantic, that the dough that we had been preparing was unable to rise and we did not have fluffy, puffy bread. Why is this trivial factoid so central to the Exodus and the festival that commemorates and relives it? What is so noteworthy about the dough having insufficient time to rise? Why did the accident happen during baking time? In this parsha podcast, we explore the Exodus on a deep level, and draw out a foundational lesson about living life alongside our Creator.– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –DONATE: Please consider supporting the podcasts by making a donation to help fund our Jewish outreach and educational efforts at https://www.torchweb.org/support.php.
