みなさんこんにちは、かなこです!今日のシャドーイングは「AのにB」。今回のPodcastは、ニコールさんの提供でお送りします。
Hi everyone, it’s Kanako. Today’s shadowing is “B, despite the fact A”, “A, but contrary to expectations, B.
“のに” is used when connecting two facts, A and B, which hold despite the expectation that if A is the case, B is not the case.
For instance, if you walked a lot you would expect to be tired, however, you are not tired. In this case, you can say something like this.「たくさん歩いたのに、全然疲れていません。」
Before we get started, I want to thank Nicole for supporting my show. ありがとうございます!
それでは はじめていきましょう! Let’s get started!
