こんなに意味が変わる！冠詞aとtheの違いを英語のプロが解説！

The word ザ comes from the word ザt, which means weak. Hello everyone! I'm Nishizawa Roy, an English doctor. In this channel, I teach you how to learn English in a non-normal way. How do you understand the word ザ? I can't remember all the words that start with ザ. For example, the world is the world, the sun is the sun, and the moon is the moon. You learn that at school, right? Is there a non-normal way to learn English without memorizing those words? Of course there is. There are also words that start with ア, such as アサン and アムーン. Let's learn those words together. I look forward to it. Tony, what does ザ mean? ザ is like その, and it means to be confirmed. I think there are many people who have learned that way. The word ザ comes from the word ザt. If you understand that, you will understand the word ザ more easily. Does it come from the word ザt? What does ザt mean? アレとか ザt is often translated as that. It's a word you point with your finger. If your hand is close enough to reach it, it's like this. If you point your finger away from where your hand can't reach it, it becomes ザt. It's like それとかアレ. For example, Tony, when you come up with an idea, How would you feel if you were told that it's a good idea? I'd be happy. That's right. It's a story before you're happy. When you're told that it's a good idea, You know what you're pointing at, right? Do you feel like you're pointing at what I said? Yes. And the important thing is that the speaker points with his finger. The listener knows what he's pointing at. ザt is pointing with your finger. ザt is a weak word. For example, ザt book. It's weak to point with your finger like that book. It's going to be ザt book. It does sound similar. When you say ザt book, You know what book you're pointing at, right? That's how you say ザt book. The listener understands it like, oh, that book. You know what you're pointing at, right? That's the essence of ザt. That's what it is. Now that you've understood the essence of ザt, Let's take a closer look at how to use it. 1. What's on the topic. This is the most basic way to use ザt. For example, I bought a book yesterday. That's the first thing you say. I bought a book yesterday. At this point, we're talking about a book. This is new information, so it's like a book. It has a negative kanji. If it's plural, it's books. You can say it like three books. Anyway, at this point, This book is the first new information that's on the topic. And then you point at that book. I just said that book in Japanese. You say ザt book. The book was like 2,000 yen. It's the basis of ザt to point at something that's already on the topic. It was like 2,000 yen. You can also use it to express it. But when you want to say that it's a book, ザt book. If it's plural, it's ザt books. It's like that. 2. What's in front of you. The second way to use it is also a very important basic. I think there are quite a few people who don't keep it down. For example, I got an autograph from a famous English teacher. The teacher is a native English teacher who has lived in the United States for a long time. I bought a book from that teacher and got an autograph. The first thing he wrote with the autograph was Hope you like the book. The plural of I is omitted. I hope you like the book. I hope. So I wish. I'm saying, I hope it works out. I wish you like the book. Of course, like means you like it. It may be easier to understand if you translate it as you like it. The important thing is the object you like. It's the book. When I saw this English, I was surprised. Because if it's an English sentence that Japanese people often make, You can write this book, right? Oh, that's right. Even in Japanese, it's called this book. But it was the book. Not this book. The person who is looking at this autograph is holding the book in his hand. So you know the book, right? If you say that, you'll know which book it is, right? I certainly understand. So when you use words, It's very important to imagine the situation. If you try to translate it into Japanese and understand it, You don't have to imagine the situation. You just have to translate it into words and try to understand it. The second book I'm introducing now is It's the basics of the basics. If you don't have a good idea of the situation, you won't be able to understand it. It's not difficult at all. Let me give you a little more examples. For example, if I went for a walk with Tony in the park. There was a white dog in the park. So I said, Tony, look at the dog. You see? I certainly understand. In that situation, there is only one dog. If you say, the dog, Of course I'm pointing at that dog. So next. Actually, there was another black dog. There are two white dogs and two black dogs. So I said, Look at the dog. Which one is the dog? That's the right reaction. Which dog? Because I said, you know, right? I don't know. Because there are two dogs. If you say, look at the black dog, you'll know, right? If that's the case, it's just one dog. How about this? Tony, look at the dogs. You can see both of them. That's right. There's a 座, and it's a plural form. In this situation, I'm pointing at both of them. So it's right in front of you. What are you pointing at? If it's obvious, you can use 座. Of course, you can use that like, look at that dog. If it's close, you can also say, look at this dog. In that case, I'm pointing with my finger. Like that dog. In fact, if you point your finger, You may be pointing with your feelings alone. But I'm saying, look at that dog, look at this dog. It's just, you know, right? The way you use 座 is different from the way you use it. There's a feeling that you know, right? This is a really important point. 3. You know from common sense. This is how you use 座 in this word. That's how it's explained. If you want to say that there are more than 200 countries in the world, There are more than 200 countries in the world. That's what you say, right? In the world that represents the world, You learn to use 座. Yes, I learned it. I really want you to stop teaching like this. Because you have to use 座 naturally. For example, let's use あ. There are more than 200 countries in a world. It sounds like there are other worlds. Using あ is originally intended to have multiple countries. But when you say there are more than 200 countries in the world, You're referring to the world we live in, right? I talked about the sign of the book earlier. You refer to the book itself where the sign is written. The book. In the same way, you refer to the world we live in now. The world. You're going to use 座 naturally. If you want to say this world, that's fine. You use 座 in the word world. There's only one reason for that. I don't want you to explain it like that. I don't want you to remember that either. By the way, Tony. Do you know the small world? Is it a Disney song? Yes, that song. In English, it's a small world. There's an あ. It's normal to add あ. On the contrary, if you add 座 like it's the small world, It's the first way to use the 座 I just explained. For example, there is a small world somewhere in this universe. There is such a premise. When you finally find that small world, It's the small world. You can say that it's that small world. In the lyrics of the previous It's a small world, It's a world of laughter. And a world of tears. It's a world of tears. It's like that. A lot of worlds come out. That's one of many. It's natural to add あ. I thought the world was 座. It's very interesting that there is also あ in some cases. The sun, the sun, the moon, the moon that many people have memorized. This is the same. It's not the 座, it's the あ. You can also say あっさん. What does あっさん mean? It represents a planet. Is it a planet or something? The planet we live on is a planet. In English, it's a planet. Water, gold, wood, earth, sky. This is a planet. The star that doesn't move in the middle of them. This is a planet. That's アッサン in English. And when you look at it from Earth, If you say a star, it refers to the sun in terms of situation. That's why it's called the sun. アムーン is the same. The meaning of ムーン is a satellite. This means I want you to go around the planet. By the way, how many satellites are there around the earth? Is there only one satellite? Yes, it's only the moon. That's why it's the moon. You know what I'm talking about. There's only one, so it's the moon. For example, Mars has two satellites. That's right. It's called Phobos and Deimos. There are two. I found out for the first time. Marsians who live on Mars. Hey, look at the moon. What happens when you say that? Which one? That's what I mean. There are no satellites in Mercury or Venus. So if you're told, look at the moon, It's going to be like, huh? So the word sun represents the composition. If you say the sun on the planet Earth, It refers to the sun. If it's in the solar system, The sun refers to the sun. And the moon refers to the satellite. It just so happens that the earth is called the moon. There's only one moon. For example, if you go to Saturn, There are more than 100 satellites. There are more than 100? Then the expression the moon is I rarely use it. Can you use it? It depends on the situation. For example, there is a satellite called Titan. I'm talking about that Titan. In other words, the moon. If you say that, You know what you're pointing at. But that's the kind of translation. You need a situation. So I've been explaining about THE. The Z in the infinitive is originally from THE. It's weak and it's THE. So you know what you're pointing at. That's how you use it. By all means, this feeling. This is a very important point. There aren't many people who understand it. By all means, everyone watching this video. I want you to understand that. I want you to deepen your understanding of English. The Z in the infinitive is. What's on the topic. What's in front of you. There's a way to use it from common sense. Wait a minute. That's how you classify it. You can't be at ease. That's right. What I just did was. It's a classification that's easy to explain. I don't need it anymore. If you understand it, you don't need that classification. Please let go of it. I'll let go of it right away. And personally. If you go outside the earth. The common sense has changed. I can't use the Z anymore. It was also a very interesting story. Thank you very much for talking about non-common sense today. Thank you for watching the video until the end. If this video was of any help to you. Please subscribe to the channel, rate it highly, and leave a comment. I'd be happy if you could write your thoughts on the English sense of the Z in the comments section. I'm sure there are quite a few people who didn't understand it well. Please feel free to write in the comments section. See you in the next video. This was English doctor Nishizawa Roy. See ya.
