The Concept of Honor

26日、27日とレッスンを受けています。

 

1. To think more/less of someone means to have a better/worse opinion of a person.

 

People started to think less of the famous actor when they found out that he was abusive.

 

 

2. To humiliate someone means to make a person feel really embarrassed, especially in front of other people.

 

It’s not nice to laugh at your friend’s mistake – you humiliated him.

 

3. To lose face means to feel like you lost others’ respect because of something very embarrassing.

 

The pop star lost face when she joined a singing competition and was beaten by an amateur.

 

 

最近、言えてないなぁ、表現に迷うなと思うことが多い。

英語でそのまま考えてなくて、日本語を簡単にして考えているからかな。

 

offensive とかパッとでるようになりたいですね。
