Pronunciation Polish

Roza
▶︎ OK, everyone. Are you ready for another round of “Pronunciation Polish”?
Here’s today’s sentence.
・I just want to remain here for a while.

The scene where this sentence’ is used is a very serious one,
So I want you to focus on the emotion of this feeling as we practice.
Today’s practice points are all the points that you’ve already done:
disappearing “t,” the linking and the /ə/ sound.

All right. So let’s practice together.
Here we go! Repeat after me.

OK, Listen to the rhythm. OK?
Repeat.

One more time.

Ending

Onishi
▶︎Hey, David! Whay did you use “my” in “my last train”?

David
▶︎ Ah, instead of “the last train.”
Ah 〜, see, that’s very interesting. The last train is the final train on schedule.
But “my train” is for me to get home. So…
“My last train” maybe isn’t the last train. But it’s the last train “I” can use.

Onishi
▶︎ Right. So it’s like 9:30 train from Shibuya, right?

David
▶︎ Oh, yeah. So if the last train is 11:55, maybe
my last train is the 10:00 pm.
