Hello!
I'm Akira, from Japan.
I'm married and have two sons.
I've been studying English hard since April 2022.
I want to post a record of my study.
My kids fell sleep just now!
I will study English!😍😍😍
今朝しばらくシャドーイングしてから2回目文単ディクテーション。
informedが聞き取れてなかった。あとはa、複数形のs、前置詞toも間違えたところがあった。

It has been a really long time.
I'm still studying English!
I read English books, study English grammar, memorize English words and read aloud English sentences from a textbook almost every day.
I have a question from a textbook.
①Are you OK? You look as if you have been crying.
②Are you OK? You look as if you have cried.
①The children are tired now. They have been playing in the garden.
②The children are tired now. They have played in the garden.
The textbook says that ① is correct.
Why is ② incorrect?
I don't know why.
Please teach me.
My kids and I made a marble run machine this morning. https://fedibird.com/media/4bH_XyrC0UM9evdNroQ
I sewed two handkerchiefs with a sewing machine.
Santa Claus gave me a present, too!
A tea set!
Two tea leaves, cookies and chocolates.
The tea smells really good.
I got motivated to do housework.

Today's study report
・ELSA SPEAK
・hello talk
・Anki
I practiced how to pronounce ɑ,æ,ʌ sounds on ELSA app. Especially ɑ sound was hard to understand how to pronounce it.
I posted a moment about my son's letter written by his friend on hello talk app this morning. And I talked with my hello talk friends on the app. I have a few hello talk friends. They gave me corrections of the moment.
I've been using Anki, a flash card app, recently. This app can customize in many ways, but I can't still use it in effective way.

🐱Yesterday's study report🐱
・ELSA SPEAK 11Lessons about i and ɪ sounds
An ɪ sound is hard to pronounce😅
But, I believe practicing it many times makes my pronunciation better.
I'll try to pronounce today, too.
It will be cold after winter has come. → My kids will not be able to play outside. → They will be frustrated with that. → I will be frustrated with seeing them.
I see this circulation. 😥

ハロートークというアプリで英語と日本語で会話してます。
だけど、なんというか、会話を拡げる意思が感じられなかったりします。会話したくないのかな??受け身な姿勢では、何も生まれないと思うのだけど。
I talk with some English speakers in Japanese and English.
Sometimes I can't feel a person's will that she wants to talk more. I wonder if she wants to talk with me...? I want her to be active.
