In this course, I learned how to blog through my every week blogging! I think my blogging was getting better than first blogging! However I didn’t post articles in time. So I will grade me B+.
I did all kinds of things to be good blog. I used many information and materials.
Thank you, Jeff. I’m glad that I was able to develop my blog skill. I’ll keep trying to blog!
Hello, again! Do you know Japanese-English words? It is also called “Japanglish”. For example, we Japanese said order-made. But it is custom-made truthfully. I didn’t know that. As told above, there are many Japanese-English words that we don’t know it is not English. And I don’t introduce only them but also British English.
・Skin ship
We usually say skin ship, but it is Japanese-English. Personal contact is correct! Surely, I use this word.
・Consent
When I went to the UK, I made this mistake! In the UK, people usually call it socket. Did you know?
・Key holder
English people call it key ring!
Next, what do you know it is called this in British English?
Did you think it is "sweater"?
But in British English, it is "jumper". I don't know why. I think it is interesting!!!
So what is this?
It is not "Pants"! It is called "Under wear" in British English. Clothing materials have some different words between American English and British English. I wanted to learn more words during my stay in the UK.
If you knew Japanese-English words or British English, please let me know!
In London, there are some Harry Potter’s locations. I went to there, so I want to introduce them. First, this is platform 9 3/4! Do you know? Please watch this movie.
I tried to go to Hogwarts! lol
Next, this is Australian High Commission.
It is location of Gringott Bank. I thought it was little different from film but building was very nice.
In London, there are many attractive places. I love London, and I want to go there again. I really recommend you to go to London in your life! That's all :D Thank you!
< St Paul's Cathedral > St Paul's Cathedral is very beautiful and I like it very much!!!!!
It is still a busy working church, with hourly prayer and daily services. When I enter inside, I intaked of breath because inside was soooooo beautifuland I was able to hear music of church service!
We can climb up the stairs that are 528 steps. I climbd them with my friends. I don’t like high pleces so I don’t want to do. Though I was so tired, the view from the top of St Paul's Cathedral was very nice! This is a picture that I took from there.
I recommend you to visit and climb up all stairs like this picture! lol
Buckingham Palace is the official London residence of the British monarch. I was not able to visit there but I saw the famous march by gardians like this picture. Haven’t you seen this scene? I was lucky because I was able to see it by chance.
< British Museum >
The British Museum is a museum of human history and culture in London. Have you ever heard “Daiei Hakubutsukan” in Japanese? There are many historic objects, such as Rosseta Stone, moai and mummy. We was able to take pictures, so it was good experience!
< National Gallery >
National Gallery is a museum in London. There are many arts and building is wonderful. I didn’t know National Gallery but I was surprised at the view from the entrance.
There are famous arts. Have you ever seen this art?
This is "Sunflowers" paintings by the Dutch painter Vincent van Gogh. I was so surprised!!!!
As you know, London is the capital of England and the United Kingdom.
It is the center of economy, culture, traffic and entertainment in the world. What do you know about London? Sadly, before I went to London, I know little things about London. But London was very cool city!!!!
I went to London for two days.
In two days, I visited many many places. So I’d like to introduce them.
< Big Ben >
Big Ben is the nickname for the great bell of the clock of the Palace of Westminster in London. It was so big and beautiful. Moreover, it has a wonderful presence. Though I have never seen, it is lighten up at night like the left picture.
< Londoneye >
London Eye is a giant 135-meter tall Ferris wheel located on the bank of the River Thames in London. It is the tallest Ferris wheel in Europe and the most popular paid tourist attraction in the UK. One capsule can contain 25 people. I didn’t ride it because I don’t like high places. But I really moved by the beauty of London Eye.
Next time, I'll talk about london, too, because I don't talk all things I want to talk.
Please look at this picture. One pound is as thick as 100 yen. So my wallet was very heavy.
By the way, do you know interesting works? If we turned back them, the picture would appear. The picture is same as the backside of one pound. I think it is very nice style.
