英表現を豊かにする「wonder」の役割
=================================
今日は“wonder”を使った表現について触れていこうと思います。単語自体の意味は「疑問に思う」ということは既にご存知かと思いますが、実は“wonder”は使い方によって様々な役割を果たす非常に便利な言葉なんです。上手に使いこなすことで、あなたの英語の表現がより豊かになるでしょう!
--------------------------------------------------
1) I wonder _____
→「〜かな? / 〜だろう?」
--------------------------------------------------
「Wonder」は、何か疑問に思うことをダイレクトに尋ねるのではなく、「〜なのかな?」や「〜なんだろう?」のように遠回しな表現として使われます。例えば、「What should I wear to the party?」は「パーティーに何を着るべき?」とストレートな質問になるのに対し、「I wonder what I should wear to the party.」と言うと「パーティーに何を着て行こうかな?」のように遠回しな質問の仕方になります。
✔「I wonder」の後に「Who」「What」「Where」「When」「Why」「How」を入れる。
✔「I wonder who _____.(誰が◯◯何だろう?」
✔「I wonder what _____.(何を◯◯だろう?)」
✔「I wonder where _____.(どこで◯◯なんだろう?)」
✔「I wonder when _____.(いつ◯◯だろう?)」
✔「I wonder why _____.(何で◯◯なんだろう?)」
✔「I wonder how _____.(どうやって◯◯だろう?)」
<例文>
I wonder why she cut her hair.
(彼女はなんで髪の毛を切ったんだろう?)
I wonder when he is going to get married.
(彼はいつ結婚するのかな?)
I wonder who is coming to the party.
(誰がパーティーに来るんだろう?)
--------------------------------------------------
2) I wonder if _____
→「〜かな?」
--------------------------------------------------
「I wonder if」も「I wonder」と同じ意味合いを持ちますが、「Who, what where, when, why, how」がフォローしない状況で使われます。例えば、「誕生日会に何かプレゼントを買っていた方がいいかな?」と友達に尋ねる際、「I wonder if I should buy a present.」という具合に使われます。「Should I buy a present?(プレゼントを買った方がいい?」のストレートな質問に比べ、遠回しな聞き方になります。
✔「I wonder if」+「主語」+「動詞」
<例文>
I wonder if he is allergic to cats.
(彼は猫アレルギーなのかな?)
I wonder if it's going to rain tomorrow.
(明日雨が降るのかな?)
I wonder if I should call her.
(彼女に電話したほうがいいかな?)
--------------------------------------------------
3) I was wondering if _____
→「〜してくれないでしょうか?」
--------------------------------------------------
人に何か頼み事や依頼をする時に、丁寧な聞き方として使われるのが「I was wondering if」になります。「Can you _____?」より丁寧だけど「Would/Could you _____?」ほど堅苦しくなく、カジュアルで丁寧な表現方法です。例えば、友達に「手伝ってくれますか?」とお願いをする時は「I was wondering if you could help me?」になります。ファオーマルな場で使うというよりは、親しい関係の人に丁寧にお願いする場で使われます。
✔「I wonder if」も使えるが、「I was wondering if」のほうが口語的。
✔「I was wondering if」+「主語」+「動詞」
<例文>
I was wondering if you could drop me off at the train station.
(駅まで連れて行ってくれませんか?)
I was wondering if I could stay at your place tonight.
(今夜、泊めさせてもらってもいいですか?)
I was wondering if Stan could look over my essay.
(私のエッセーをスタン先生に見直してもらえないでしょうか?)
--------------------------------------------------
4) No wonder
→「だから〜なんだ / どうりで / なるほど」
--------------------------------------------------
理解できなかったことや納得できなかったことが明らかになった時に「だから〜なんだ」「どうりで〜だ」を意味するフレーズです。冒頭でも述べたように“Wonder”は「疑問に思っている」や「不思議に思っている」ことを意味するため、それに“No”が付け加わった「No wonder」とすることで、疑問が無くなる(解消する)ニュアンスになります。例えば、いつも元気な友達が一日中無口で、後になってから失恋をしたと聞いた場合は「No wonder he was out of it today.(だから彼は今日元気じゃなかったんだ)」という具合に使われます。
✔「No wonder」+「主語」+「動詞」
✔「No wonder」の一言で「なるほど!」も意味する。
<例文>
No wonder she was late.
(だから彼女は遅れたんだ。)
No wonder I couldn't get a hold of you. I called so many time.
(どうりで連絡が取れなかったわけだ。何回も電話したんだよ。)
No wonder! I was wondering why she's so fluent in Chinese.
(なるほどね!何で彼女は中国語がペラペラなのか不思議だったんだよね。)

如果能幸福的生活著, 自然再好不過,
不過, 沒有所謂的「我一定要很幸福」這件事。
「非得這樣不可」的想法...就是很沉重、無謂的包袱。
☘願我們都找到自己幸福的意義💕
~ Blueless Bird ~ Joni Fatora
Why do the birds sing?
So early in the dawn?
They're honeys?? melodies before my days' alarm
I imagine them rehearsing
For some pickle elaborate show
That I've not been invited to
So, I should never know
The songs they like to sing,
I supposed they're not too far
From all the songs I sing when I'm lonely in my car
If I were postman I'll wait for the afternoon
I'd be the lucky someone to be strapping on their tooth
But I think I like it better when I sleep late past that call
But I know perhaps that birds don't sing any at all
We are lonely,
Love comes easily to you,
But not the hurt
You're imperious to blue
I wish I knew
How to sing 'bout yet the colors too

【一切的失敗和不足,都是最美好的安排】
All Failures & Lacks Are The Best Things to Happen to Us
三個月前,收到來自台灣客人的這封電郵時,開心和心酸交織著在心裡。
開心,因為這是一年前通過Zoom視訊的客人。他居然在我們看八字的一週年,特地寫了封感謝函給我,真有心!
心酸,因為他寫在電郵裡的低落心情,我完完全全明白。
他的經歷,是我的曾經。我當初也是很難,很久才能走出來。
有一回,我為一位芳華正茂的女子批八字時,她很用心的寫下我說的話。
論寫筆記的完整,她是我客人當中的佼佼者。
寫到一半,我注意到她的右手開始微微顫抖。我以為是空調的風太大了,冷到她,便問她要不要披巾。
她說,是她的焦慮症發作。
「我沒在兇你,也沒對你嚴厲,你為何突然焦慮?」
「我.....打從今年疫情打亂了我的計畫,我就一直很焦慮。我覺得我很沒用,同學們都前進了,只有我現在什麼都不是,亂糟糟的。我就一直很緊張,萬一我一直都是這樣,怎麼辦?」
說著,她眼眶一紅,眼淚像斷了線的珍珠鏈似的灑下來。
我的媽呀!是我的樣子長得很催淚,還是我的聲音聽起來很虐心?怎麼客人,不分男女老少,東南西北,看到我好像都很容易哭?
我抓起一張紙巾遞給她。
「所以,我不是來了嗎?你來找我,就是要問個明路,而你很幸運那麼快就看到我啦!你看你的筆記寫得多工整,多齊全。我很多客人都不如你啊!我今天的工作,就是來給你答案的。我沒有把握,也不會接你這份差事。我接了,就代表還可以補救。你照著我的指示去做,一定柳暗花明又一村。」
又另一回,一位四十多歲的媽媽請我看兒子的八字。
我在批著八字時,這位媽媽點頭認同,然後就聲淚俱下。
我轉頭看著她沈默不語的先生。我說錯了什麼嗎?太太哭成淚人,你怎麼連紙巾也不拿給她啊?
「我是個沒有用的母親,很不稱職的母親。我沒有辦法教好孩子。我很愛他,可是很多時候我都不知道要怎麼做,我就會對他發脾氣,說狠話,過後我又後悔。我忍下來,可是後來還是會一樣!」
我沒打斷她,等她的哭聲逐漸小聲後,我柔柔的說:「我來啦!我坐在你前面了。你已經看到我,就是有辦法了。你知道你自己不行,會去找辦法,就代表你願意去學習做個好媽媽啊!」
我把紙巾遞給她,再說:「不要哭了,要不然,別人看了以為是我不要借你錢,才把你弄得那麼傷心。」
曾幾何時,我們都會以外在所擁有的,來定義自己的人生是否值得自己喜歡。
從原生家庭、樣貌、健康、身型、智力、天賦等,到後來的學歷、友情、事業、財富、婚姻、子女......
哪一樣沒有,而偏偏是我們最想要的,我們就會認定自己失敗的一塌糊塗。
我認為這就是普通教育最大的問題所在。父母老師都是這樣把我們「分門別類」的。值不值得父母疼愛或向親朋戚友炫耀,也離不開那幾點。
久而久之,我們也只會以「成功」來定義自己是否有價值,甚至來衡量自己是否有活下去的勇氣。
我比較喜歡佛法的定義。我們每個人都是一尊佛,六道眾生皆有佛性,只因一時的迷,因此墮落在苦輪不停的輪迴。
可正因為我們有佛性,我們都有無窮無盡的可能。每個人的內在有著很強大的力量,等著我們遇到明師後,去發掘、探索和了解。
而這天生俱來的力量,就是你改命立命的資本。
如果人生順風順水,我們永遠不會想要出離,誤把人間當極樂,所以一定要有苦,我們才會意識到,為什麼我們會在這鬼地方?要怎麼樣才可以離開這鬼地方去到極樂?
反過來,我們都應該感恩自己遇到的挫折,因為從這些苦中,我們才能生出智慧。
沒有一個八字是完美的。一切的失敗和不足,都是最美好的安排,如此你才會有出離心,返本歸源。

3 months ago, when I received this email from my Taiwan client, there was this feeling of bittersweetness.
I was happy because this was the client I did a Zoom consultation last June. He sent me this email on the one-year anniversary date of our Zoom call, to express his gratitude. How sweet!
On the other hand, I could relate to the emotional turmoil he felt at that point in his life.
His experience was my past. It also took me a very long time to walk out from my gloominess.
Once, I analysed the Bazi of a very young lady. She was meticulously jotting down notes as I spoke.
Her detailed note-taking skills easily took the top place among my clients.
Halfway through, I noticed her right hand was trembling slightly. I thought it was due to the cold draft from the air conditioning, so I asked if she needed a shawl.
She replied that it was her anxiety disorder acting up.
“I was not fierce or strict with you. What caused your sudden anxiety?”
“I…ever since the pandemic disrupted my plans, I have been in this state of anxiety. I kept feeling useless. All my classmates are progressing expect me. I have nothing to show for and my life is in a mess. I am very anxious. What if I continue to be like this? What am I going to do?”
As she spoke, her eyes turned red and tears started rolling down like a broken strand of pearl necklace scattering onto the ground.
Oh dear! I am beginning to wonder if I have a tear-jerker face or a heart-tormenting voice. Why do my clients, regardless of gender and age, North South or East West, seem to cry easily when they see me?
I grabbed a piece of tissue and handed it to her.
“Ain’t I here already? You came to me for a roadmap and you are very lucky to see me so soon. Look at how precise and neat your notes are! Many of my clients aren’t even on par with you. My job today is to give you answers. If I didn’t have the confidence, I would not have taken up your request. Now that I did, that means there is still hope. If you follow my instructions, you will see things looking up very soon.”
On another occasion, a mother in her forties came to me for her son’s Bazi consultation.
As I was analysing, the mother nodded her head in agreement. The next thing I know, she started weeping loudly.
I turned to look at her husband, who had been silent all along. Did I say something wrong? And hello, your wife was crying. Why weren’t you gentleman enough to give her a tissue paper?
“I am a useless mother. I am incompetent. I do not know how to teach my son well. I love my son very much. But many times, I do not know what to do and thus I flare up at him and speak harshly. I always regret afterwards. I tried enduring but it still ends badly!”
I did not interrupt her and waited for her cries to soften, before speaking gently, “I’m here! I’m already sitting in front of you. You are looking at me now and that means help is here. You know that you are incompetent, so you went looking for solutions. That means you are willing to learn how to be a better mother!”
I handed a piece of tissue and said, “Don’t cry anymore, otherwise, other patrons will think that it’s because I refuse to lend you money.”
Since young, we have been using external possessions to define whether our lives are worth liking.
The family we are born into, our looks, health, body shape, intellect, talents, and then we move on to compare our academics, friendships, career, wealth, marriage and children.
If we are lacking in the area we covet most, we grade our lives as a failure.
I think this is the biggest problem in societal education. Our parents and teachers categorized us that way. Whether we as children are worthy of their love and bragging, depends on the few points above too.
Thus over time, we can only use the term “success” to determine whether we are of value, for some people, whether they should live on to take their next breath.
I very much prefer the definition in Buddhism. We are all Buddhas. Each and every sentient being in the six realms has a Buddha nature in them. But they got lost momentarily and fell into the endless wheel of reincarnation.
Yet, because of our Buddha nature, we have an unlimited source of potential. Every one of us has a very powerful strength inside us. It is just waiting for us to meet an accomplished teacher, so that we have the tools to explore and understand it:
And this strength that we are born with is the capital for us to transform and establish our own destiny.
If life is smooth-sailing, we would never want to leave and would mistake this mortal realm for Pureland. Thus, we all need sufferings, to realise that we should break out of this hell of a place. There has to be a better world somewhere. So how we get there?
We should, in fact, be grateful for all the setbacks and failures we have. Because it is from these sufferings, our wisdom arise:
No single Bazi is perfect. Every failure and lack we experience is the best arrangement for us, so that the heart of renunciation will arise in us and we will return to where we came from.
how should i call you 在 Koe Yeet Youtube 的精選貼文
My grandma suffers from Alzheimer’s.
Alzheimer's does not simply target a body part or function. It robs away memories, experiences and personality. With every passing day, we witness a bit of what defines our loving grandma withering away before our eyes. ?
Nevertheless, I still believe that we should count our blessings. ? Despite all this, at least she seems happy now. For a while, this has been how our daily conversations look like now. She still fills our lives with her smiles, laughter, and love.
If you can spare a moment, do give your grandparents a call today especially if you haven't for a while. Don't just think about visiting them "soon" - make actual plans to visit them on a definite day and mark your calendar. ?
All they need is a little bit of your time and love.
?????

Lyrics:
I, I can’t pay my rent right now
我 雖然我現在付不起房租
But I can buy you a drink
但還是能給你買一杯酒
Let’s not talk how we think
讓我們別把心裡的想法說出
Cause you
因為 你呀
You don’t need that stress right now
你不需要我帶來什麼壓力
You’re so calm and it kills me
你還是那樣鎮定我因此心痛不已
It’s not your fault that I’m empty yeah
這並非你的錯而你已挖空我的心
Sweep it under the sheets yeah
將我送入你的床榻裡
Put your hands all on me yeah
把你的手放在我身上
I should feel it but I don’t
我本該有所感受但並沒有
I'm lying with you in NoHo
曼哈頓南邊和你躺在床上
It don’t really feel like home so
而這樣的感覺並不像家
I should call you but I won’t
我應該去找你但並不會
Cause I’m so LA
因為我心在洛杉磯
I’m so LA lonely oh now
心裡裝著洛杉磯的孤獨
I’m so LA
因為我心在洛杉磯
I’m so LA lonely
心裡裝著的是洛杉磯的孤獨
And I’d ask you to stay
我想讓你留下
But even when you hold me
但當你與我相擁
I know I’m so LA
我明白我的心仍在洛杉磯
I’m so LA lonely
心裡裝著的是洛杉磯的孤獨
All, all my friends are out right now
我的朋友們都走出門去
At a dive in New York
奔向紐約的酒館
Have you been there before?
你去過那裡嗎
No you
你呀
You stay up you don’t go downtown
你喜歡熬夜 卻不想進城
And that's okay 'cause I like you
沒關係 因為我喜歡你
But no I’m not really like you so
但我卻不喜歡你這樣
Sweep it under the sheets yeah
將我送入你的床榻裡
Put your hands all on me yeah
把你的手放在我身上
I should feel it but I don’t
我本該有所感受 但並沒有
I’m lying to you that’s so sad
我對你說謊 感覺很糟
Acting like I don’t know that
假裝好像我什麼都不知道
I should call you and I won’t
我應該去找你 但並不會
And that’s wrong
我這麼做真的不對
Cause I’m so LA
因為 我心在洛杉磯
I'm so LA lonely, oh, now
心裡裝著的是洛杉磯的孤獨
I’m so LA
我心在洛杉磯
I’m so LA lonely
心裡裝著的是洛杉磯的孤獨
And I’d ask you to stay
我想讓你留下
But even when you hold me
但當你與我相擁
I know I’m so LA
我知道 我心在洛杉磯
I’m so LA lonely
心裡裝著的是洛杉磯的孤獨

how should i call you 在 Rose Mun Youtube 的最佳解答
We’ve all done things in the past we’re not proud of. The best way for us to heal is to accept ourselves- every flaw and moment we’ve been ashamed of to learn to let go of those emotions to truly be happy.
Everyone has a story of their own & this one’s mine. I went through a lot as a child from learning how to cope with the death of my brother, sleeping in cars because we were either homeless or moving from place to place, and leaving my parents to have a better life.
I’ve learned that life moves on, either with or without you - so learn to live life happily, wholeheartedly. Work on yourself and learn to really love yourself by accepting who you were born to be.
Thank you for supporting me and my journey.
XoXo,
Rose
Lyrics:
My Story - Rose Mun
Lyrics:
Look -
Let me tell my story
Grew up in a small town
Everybody knew me
Mom, Dad, Brother, Brother, Sister, then Me
I guess you could call that a family
10 yea old left mom & dad
Didn’t even know that life was bad
17, and the brothers passed
Cries every night with the thought of that
There’s days where we’ve gone cold, gone cold
& days where we’ve just had no home
Slept in the car like it was nothing
Woke up went to school
Tryna be something
Tryna make my family proud
Tryna get that bag, cause I wanna get out
Rap:
So you can call me crazy
Yeah I’m crazy on life
I said puff puff pass
Now I’m a little high
Thinkin’ bout the times
How it flew by
How much I’ve grown to love myself
Man it feels nice
You should try it sometimes
Instead of shittin’ on people
Karma is a mf’ bitch
Man that shit is lethal
Escape this damn reality
And just be me
I just wanna live my dreams
Let my soul be free
I was lost for a minute
But now I’m back
Trusting the Universe
The Angels got my back
I’m seeing all the signs
Right before my eyes
I’m following my heart
And ignoring my mind
I came from a broken home
And that’s okay
My parents weren’t in my life
I accepted all the pain
I learned to accept my life for what it is
Blessed for all the moments
I’m glad I got no kids.
Serial dated
As if I was a killer
The only person dying
Was the one inside
A sinner
Didn’t know my worth
Let myself get used
Dated the wrong people
I even got abused
Man I learned my lesson
Even though it was the hard way
Cheated on my exes
And now karma paid it my way
Fucked up many times
Thought I learned my lesson
I was just a kid
Playing games and messin’
With things I didn’t understand
Loving people wrong
Hurting them in the end
Made mistakes
And grew from that shit
Learned to let go
Release, and that’s it.
Life moves on
Either with or without you
It’s your choice to
Make up what you will do
So take this time just to sit back
Listen to your heart, really listen to that
Stop playing games
And silence your mind
Meditate & grow
Baby, let me see you thrive
Clear your energy
Throw in some good vibes
2021 - the greatest time to be alive
