8. How
Etsuko said it
Etsuko made everyone laugh when she made suggestions of what
a student shouldn’t say in this situation. Read or listen again to the
following excerpt from the 生の声 and answer
the following questions.
言っちゃいけないことは、何かな。
あー、「いやだ！」（笑）近所の人に行きあって、あまり言えないわよね。
「おまえもそうね。」これは...笑）「あなただって
」でも、んー、でも、そんなこと言えないわねえ、留学生。
a.
Twice Etsuko chose to use a particle that gives a feminine or softening effect.
What particle is that? _______
b. 言っちゃいけないin the top line is a colloquial way of
saying
____________________いけないこと.
c. おまえ means
___________ but it is usually said in a very familiar context, and is more
likely to be said by male speakers speaking to juniors or equals so it would
sound disrespectful in a formal situation.
d. あなただって could be translated into English as “__________you”
