Welcome to Gavin's English Room Podcast!
*clapping*
Hey guys!
Alright.
*clears throat*
Here we go.
Here we go.
This is the audio message...
Oh! It's been such a...
...that we've been waiting for.
It's been such a long time since we last heard...
Yeah.
...last heard an audio message.
Yes.
Let's go.
Here we go.
You've never heard this, right?
No.
Alright.
Here we go.
There you go.
Every time I hear the phrase, "I'm proud of myself,"
I feel like, "Wow, this is so American."
This phrase reflects American mindset.
Because Japanese, I think,
for example, they win big competition, whatever,
they never say like this.
I guess they say,
"I'm very happy. I'll do my best again tomorrow."
I think they never say, "I'm proud of myself."
So my question is,
do you guys come up with any other phrases
which reflect each country's mindset or culture?
I mean, in the US, Japan, or France.
So I hope you guys pick this question.
Thank you. Bye.
Nice.
Nice. Nice, nice, nice.
Love that.
Love it, love it.
Jasmine-san.
Jasmine-san.
I love how you went with the direct mic to the speakers
when we have this,
and we have the capability of connecting it,
like line connect it, and then do whatever.
I know, it's a hassle, right?
I understand. I would probably do that too.
It's so much convenient, right?
That's what I thought, yeah.
That's what you thought, right?
Yeah, I did compare it.
Right, right, right.
You thought of like, "Oh, this is better this way."
I would do it too.
Yeah, this line, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Couldn't be better.
Yeah, "I'm proud of myself."
That's true. If you think about it,
that's so, I guess, American.
There is no phrase in Japan that's typically used around like that, right?
"I'm proud of myself."
"Ureshii desu."
Could be the replace, but...
True.
It's a different meaning though, right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
"Ureshii," like "I'm happy."
"I'm happy to accomplish this."
Yeah, like, "Ganbatte kite yokatta na to omoimasu."
But, you know, it's a little different from the,
03:02
"I'm proud of myself."
"Jibun wo hokori ni omou."
Yeah.
"Iwanai yo."
That's not a thing that Japanese people say.
Oh, true. "I'm proud of myself."
Well, how would you think a Japanese people,
like an average Japanese people would react
if an athlete or someone on TV says,
"Jibun wo hokori ni omoimasu."
You think that it will come off as egotistical?
Yeah.
A little bit like over the top,
a little bit like an asshole kind of vibe.
Well, not that much.
But at least, you know, they don't say like that.
Like, "Kenkyosani kakeru."
Yeah.
Like, at least they would say,
"Mawari no support no okage desu."
Right, right, right, right.
"Kibishii training wo issho ni yatte kite kureta kochi no okage desu."
So, you know, "Not proud of myself."
But, you know,
That's true.
Yeah, average Japanese, you know, athlete would say.
Yeah.
"Okagesama de"
That's true.
Mind, you know.
That's true.
"Kinmedare ga toremashita." Mind, you know.
That's true.
Yeah.
But at the same time, I think that's the beauty, right?
Yeah.
Of the Japanese mindset.
Yeah.
See, that's "okagesama de" is quite like Japanese mentality.
There's no "okagesama de."
Yeah.
Right.
What, thanks to Daniel.
Yeah.
Right.
True.
All right, well, but see, how are you?
How your business goes?
Oh, "okagesama de."
That's true.
Yeah, that's really Japanese way.
I don't know how to say that.
Translate that right.
Thanks to you.
Except me.
Nothing.
Right.
I didn't buy a product.
Yeah.
True.
That's true.
That's true.
Proud of myself.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Proud of myself.
Yeah.
Proud of myself.
Can you think of any other expressions?
Like "americana."
Okay.
