Stephen先生が選んだOne word and phrase!

2015-04-08


“blisters”= まめ

I have been digging in the garden all day and I have got blisters on both hands.

New shoes always give me blisters.


"You reap what you sow"=自分でまいた種/自業自得

- Literal meaning: You can only harvest fruit and vegetables if you plant them.

- Idiomatic meaning: Everything that happens to you is a result of your own actions.

- For example: "It is no wonder your friends ignore you, just listen to the way you speak to them. You reap what you sow my dear!


2つともガーデニングや家庭菜園関連が出どころかも? Stephen先生の趣味が反映されている可能性が高いかもしれませんね(笑)。 ぜひ、このフレーズを使ってStephen先生に英文メールを書いてみてはいかがでしょうか?
