英語

最近、英語に接する時間を増やすようにしています。
TED, WWDC 2011,
レンタルでBONES ―骨は語る― シーズン1 (SEASONSコンパクト・ボックス) [DVD]などなど。

少し耳が慣れたかと思ったのですが…

やっぱり聞き取れませんね〜。

50回ほど聞きましたが、なかなか"to live your life", "not to bash into the walls"が聞き取れない。出だしでつまづくのでなんとなく全体も自信が持てない感じになります。

革新志向の気持ちを持つにはいい言葉なので、そうありたいと思う人は、繰り返し聞き取りに挑戦してみてはいかがでしょうか。

When you grow up, you tend to get told the world is the way it is,
and your, your life is just to live your life inside the world.
Try not to bash into the walls too much,
try to have a nice family life, have fun, save little money.

That's a very limited life.
Life can be much broader once you discover one simple fact, that is,
everything around you that you call life was made up by people that were no smarter than you.

You can change it, you can influence it, you can build your own things that other people can use.

Ah, once you learn that, you'll never be the same again.
