“Hmm...the bay window. Do you have a window overlooking the bay?” I mean, the bow window or compass window. Wikipedia said “A bay window is a window space projecting outward from the main walls of a building and forming a bay in a room.” So, I used the word; “bay window.”

Hello, Ellie Thank you for your through comment about this topic Japan has faced a crisis for a long time and there is no sign to find a solution It’s true that JA is a powerful organization and has something to say about this current changes designed to import many agricultural products from the EU Aside from it, Japan had a policy to reduce the amount of rice by encouraging farmers not to produce rice . It was abolished last year but it already damaged our agriculture so severely that I wonder if we could recover from it Regards, Hiroko
They are enjoying Chicago! Our daughters played with Yuka's friend's two daughters yesterday.
Hello, Teacher Ellie, Thanks for sharing your student's story. I also experienced that I found no cash nor the credit card in my wallet at the cash register, so I told clerk that I have no money. It was so embarrassing. Then, I haven"t been to that store until now. I hope you have a nice day. Ai
Hi Teacher Ellie, I am sorry to hear that you had experienced the same situation as me. And thank you for your warm message. Have a nice day. Ai
"Did you explain it to Yu-chan afterwards? Or do you want her to realize it on her own?" I want her to realize it on her own. "I guess now they are all in Chicago, right?" Yeah, that's right. I'll write about their Chicago trip soon.
Thank you very much for your usuful advices.
Thank you for detail explanations. I will continue to exercise for studying English.
Thank you very much.
Thank you so much for your helpful comments. I have learned a lot of things from your comments
When Yu-chan and her classmates were singing their school song at their graduation, I sobbed while thinking many things, such as she had had trouble memorizing the lyrics at the first year of kindergarten and there had been the days she didn’t want to go to kindergarten. Actually, I’m sobbing while writing this entry. Anyway, during the graduation, while looking at Yu-chan, her classmates and their teacher, I wished she would be kindergartener forever. Actually, I don’t know well how she spent her school days because she can’t explain it well, but the kindergarteners’ smiles and singing voices made me realized she has got precious friends and she had enjoyed her school days with them.
“I do find as I read your entries that some phrases I had not used for a while just pop up in my mind. Do you find that too?” Yes, I do. And your phrases always helps I build up my vocabulary so much. I was really appreciate it. Have a nice day!
Hi, Teacher Ellie. Thank you for encouraging me! I will keep up with my writing. Ai
