こんにちは。
①は「(難しくて)正しく発音出来ない。」という意味です。
rightをcorrectly、properly、clearlyに代えても自然だと思います。
②は直訳に近いです。
It is "形容詞" for "人" to 〜.
「"人"にとって〜することは"形容詞"だ。」
という表現がよく使われます。
これは色々な場面で使いやすいので、覚えておくと便利ですよ。
また、「お手本をお願いします。」を英語で以下のように表現すると良いと思います。
・Could you pronounce this word?
・How do you pronounce this word?
ご参考になれば幸いです。
This word is hard to pronounce. Can you say this word for me?
This word is hard to pronounce. Can you say this word for me?
この単語を発音するのは難しいです。試しに言ってもらってもいいですか?
シンプルに、
How do you say this word?
この単語はどう言うの?
でも良いかと思います♪
All of the above sayings and more besides.
If you can;t say a word in your class ask the teacher the following;
Can you show me how to say this correctly? I am finding this word difficult to pronounce.
or
Can you say this word again please, very slowly so I can see how your mouth moves and hear the sounds?
Ot
I can't catch what you are saying. Please repeat it slowly.
Your teacher will gladly help you with the word and pronunciation until you feel comfortable saying the word.
Hope this helps
Jane :)
上記の言い回しは大体同じです。
授業中言えなかったら先生にこう尋ねてみてください。
Can you show me how to say this correctly? I am finding this word difficult to pronounce.
これの正しい言い方を教えてください。すごく発音が難しいですね。
または
Can you say this word again please, very slowly so I can see how your mouth moves and hear the sounds?
私が口の開け方や発音が聞き取れるようにもう一度すごくゆっくりとこの単語をいってもらえますか?
または
I can't catch what you are saying. Please repeat it slowly.
うまく聞き取れませんでした。もう一度ゆっくり言ってもらえますか?
先生はあなたが上手く言えるようになるまで優しく教えてくれると思います。
参考になれば
Jane:)
I'm having some trouble pronouncing this word, can you please help me?
This word is a little tricky, can you help me pronounce it correctly?
Your teacher will be more than happy to help your pronunciation. Both of the above sentences would be a great way to ask your teacher for help. The word tricky, meaning difficult, is a word that is common in our everyday conversation. This would be a great word to add to your vocabulary.
"Could you show me how to say it?"
Your teacher would most likely write down the phonetic code to help you pronounce the word or they would instruct you to look at their mouths and yo repeat after them until you can pronounce it perfectly.
"Please say it again but slowly?"
You are asking your teacher to repeat the word slowly so you can listen and here all the different sounds used,
I'm having difficulty pronouncing this word, can you help me?
Pronouncing new words can be hard at times. If you see a word and don't know how to pronounce it, you can ask your teacher by saying, "Can you help me pronounce this word?" or another way of asking is " I'm having difficulty pronouncing this word, can you help me?" Then the teacher will pronounce the word slowly for you to help you understand and practice yourself.
新しい言葉を発音することはその時は難しいものです。ある単語の発音がわからなかったら、"Can you help me pronounce this word?"(この単語の発音を教えてもらえませんか。)もしくは" I'm having difficulty pronouncing this word, can you help me?"(この単語の発音が難しいので教えてもらえますか。)と言って先生に聞くことが出来ます。すると先生はその単語をあなたにわかるようゆっくり発音してくれ、あなたは練習することが出来るでしょう。
This word is difficult for me. Can you repeat it slowly?
Can you pronounce it slower?
'Can you break it down for me?'' - to break up a word means to make two or more words out of it.
For example:
Extraordinary - Extra - ordinary
Philosophy- Fill-os-o-fy -this is not how it is spelt but it is how it is pronounced. (ph gives you the 'f' sound)
I often do this for my students and it always helps. :)
'Can you break it down for me?'' - 「break up (a word)」は、単語を二つ以上に分けることを言います。
例えば:
Extraordinary - Extra - ordinary
Philosophy- Fill-os-o-fy - これはスペリングではありません、発音の仕方です(「ph」は「f」と発音します)。
私はよく自分の生徒にこうして教えています、すごく効果があります。 :)
Can you help me pronounce this word please, I am having trouble with it.
When asking if you can have help with the pronunciation of a certain word "Can you help me pronounce this word please, I am having trouble with it. '' can be said.
ある言葉の発音を教えてもらえるか聞くときのフレーズです。
"Can you help me pronounce this word please, I am having trouble with it. ''
この単語の発音を教えてもらえますか?うまくいきません。
