3:00 am | If only I had 30 hours per one day!

Friday March 13, 2009 at 06:26PM

[En]
It is 3:00 am in Japan.
Just finished the assignment (I take English class of the local langage Junior college for adults on Sunday), scripts of the speech.
In this case, the following steps are required.
#1 Collect necessary materials (Japanese) first, and read and understand it.

#2 Then, Put the points together.
#3 Make scripts in Japanese.
#4 Get to work for "Express #3 in English"

At the #4, I set up my brain in the Englsh mode.
#4 is tough one and I exhaust myself by that work.

Encoding is to change analog signal to the signal in digital style.
Encoding might understand my present feeling certainly ;-)

Frankly, Honestly that work is tiring......
Because the word can be expressed in English is really limited.
Although I have my idea, I can't express what I want to say in small English I have.
My Englsh cuts in half all of my idea, my feeling and my opinion.
Things would be much better if I understood whole at the #1 step and write down without "Encoding"
I wouldn't mind #4 step. (Language version of Encording )
If it is possible, all listeners and visitors might understand more about me......

Japanese

Japanese, Mother language is used by only Japanese people and others who need it in the business by trading with Japanese company.
I and many people need Englsih desperately when we go out.
It is same when I am in ipernity.
Who reads the post written in Japanese?
My post will end up with a diary in the secret drawer of the basement.

Since this spring I am supposed to do the work which make documents after checking statistics, numerical value and CAD drawing and taking communication with the designers and the developers inspite of my favor.
To tell you the truth, I don't want to study language ; another script operation after work.
Moreover, I hate to have a week for 6 days of work & study and 1 free day.
However everyone in this world needs money to get meaningful holiday.
No one deny photography and traveling needs money,too.
And also I want to communicate with people I met here in ipernity.

So I will keep studying English.
German? ...Hmmm....maybe...Humm...some other day, I don't know.
Anyway time is shorter than I need.

If only I had 30 hours per one day!...

ただいま日本時間の午前3時。
課題(土曜に大学で取っている英語クラス)のスピーチ原稿を書き終えたところ。
こういう場合は次の4ステップが必要。
#1 まず必要な資料(日本語)を集めて、読んで理解する。

#2 次に要点をまとめる。
#3 日本語で原稿を作る。
#4 #3を英語で表現する作業に入る。

#4で頭を英語モードに切り替える。
このモード切り替えはけっこう消耗する。

アナログ信号をデジタルに信号に変えること エンコーディングという。
エンコーディングはきっと今の私の気持ちをわかってくれることだろう。

正直言って疲れる...。
英語だと表現できる言葉が限られてくる。
思考はあっても私の持っている少ない英語ではどうしても表現しきれない。
英語だと表現が半減されてしまう。
#1のステップから英語で理解して、英語で書くことが同時にできたのなら
#4のステップは必要ないし、
伝えたいことがそのまま聞き手に伝わると思うのに...


日本語

私の母国語である日本語は基本的に日本人と仕事で日本と取引している外国人しか使わない。
外に出れば英語が必要になる。
ipernityでもそれは同じ。
日本語で投稿して誰が読むというのだろう?
誰も訪問しなければ、
私が書いた記事は誰も知らない引き出しの日記帳になる。

この春から数値や図面を見ながら、
設計者や開発者とコミュニケーションをとって
文章を書き起こす仕事をすることになった。
これがしたかったことではないけれど...。
言葉に関わる仕事をした後に、帰宅してから言語の勉強をするのは
本音を言えばやりたくない。
もっと言うと、仕事と勉強の6日間と1日の休日は嫌だ。
でも有意義な休日を過ごすにはお金が必要。
写真や旅をするにはお金が必要。
それとipernityで知り合った人たちともっともっと話したい。

だから英語の勉強は続けようと思う。
ドイツ語? うーん、どうしようかな?
それにしても時間が足りない。

一日が30時間だったらいいのに...

Good luck with your English studies, I am sure you will succeed. You mention CAD. Are you an architect like myself?

Hi, greggarch
No I am not an architect as you are but my job is required to know about it.
I am a technical writer to make some documents for end user and execution workers.
I just make DXF --- > EPS but I have to use CAD when CAD operator is busy. That's all.

ganbatte kudasai!! Your English is already very good. did you live overseas for a period of time? as for German, well, that's a whole other ball of wax. I teach it here in Nagasaki and while Japanese people don't have much trouble with the pronunciation, the grammar is more complicated than in English.
