EASY TRAVEL ENGLISH!!

Hi everybody!

October is almost here! 

It’s a fun (and spooky👻) season and I hope you all have some fun plans for Halloween.🎃 And maybe you have some travel plans, too!? So here is how native speakers talk about their plans:

A: Do you have any plans for the holidays?

B: Yes, I’m going to Vegas. (←動詞が “go” だったらネイティブはよく現在進行形を使います。｀現在´進行形なのに未来の意味なんですよ。)

A: Oh, sounds nice! How long are you gonna stay? (←これは｀How long are you going to stay?´の省略です。もちろん How long are you going to stay? って聞いても全然大丈夫ですけどネイティブスピーカーはこの言い回しをよく使うので慣れた方がいいと思います。)

B: I’m gonna be there for 10 days.

A: Sounds great!

Here are some more expressions to practice…

What are you gonna do in Vegas? (ベガスで何するの？)

I`m gonna relax on the by the pool. (“Relax” は動詞です。)

I`m gonna go shopping.

I`m gonna eat a lot of steak and American food.

後、いつも主語を取り替えて色々な主語 + be動詞の省略も練習した方が良いです・・・

Is your wife going, too? (←また未来の意味の現在進行形です。)

Yeah, she`s gonna go. (現在進行形の “Yeah, she`s going” も普通です。ネイティブは両方とも使います。)

What`s she gonna do there?

She`s gonna get a massage.

Are you gonna play any sports?

Yeah, we`re gonna play golf.

Well, that`s all for today.
