Lesson 41 説明型ー過去分詞を説明語句に

Opening

Roza
▶︎ Hey, everyone. How are you doing today? This is Akino Roza.

David
▶︎ And I’m David Evans. Welcome to June’s episodes.
Let’s have a great time.

Dialogue

① It’s an oil painting … of me!【 of の 役割 】
👉さあ、an oil painting と言った後、of me となっていますね。
of は前の語句を説明する、それだけの意図で使われる、あまりイメージのない前置詞。
ここでは、me ですから、oil painting と言って「私を描いた」といった意味で
言っているわけですね。そうした説明となっています。

② I didn’t know you could paint. 【 過去 – 過去の連鎖 】
👉さあ、ここでは時制の一致が行われています。I didn’t know と主節の動詞句が
過去なので、従属節 can が過去となって could となっています。
過去 – 過去 の連鎖が行われています。

③ It’s one started by a man named Bob.【 代名詞的働きの one 】
👉さあ、この one は、studio という、その前に出てきた文の単語を繰り返さない
ために、使っている代名詞の働きをもった単語です。
studio を繰り返さないために、one。

Practice

David
▶︎ All right. It’s time for today’s practice. These sentences use
the passive voice “受動態.” But it’s easy to use. It’s similar to using
any regular adjective.
So treat it the same way.

Roza
▶︎ OK, guys. Repeat after us.
※ taken by my father, taken by my father
・This photo was taken by my father.
One more time.
・This photo was taken by my father.

David
▶︎ All right. Good work. Let’s keep it up.
※ covered with snow, covered with snow
・The roof was covered with snow.
・The roof was covered with snow.

Roza
▶︎ Keep going.

・We weren’t seen by anyone.
・We weren’t seen by anyone.
