Translation

Ah, the classic.
ああ、定番のやつですね。
When you're talking about your country and you're saying, Oh my God, in my country we have the most amazing beaches, and everyone looks at you like
自分の国について話していて、「なんてこと、私の国には最高のビーチがあるの」と言うと、みんながあなたのことをこんな風に見る
beaches, you know, sand, sea.
ビーチ、ほら、砂、 sea（海）。
Oh, beaches!
ああ、ビーチね！
I thought you said bitches.
ビッチって言ったのかと思った。
So this is the classic.
だからこれが定番なんです。
Is it e or i?
e なの？それとも i？
Ship or sheep?
Ship なの？ Sheep なの？
Hmm.
うーん。
So you may have heard that the only difference is it's a long sound for e and a short sound for i.
e は長い音で、i は短い音、それだけが違いだと聞いたことがあるかもしれません。
Long sound for sheep, short sound for ship.
sheep は長い音、ship は短い音。
The same for sheet and shit.
sheet と shit も同じです。
But there's more to it than that.
でもそれだけじゃないんです。
And I'm going to show you two ways that you can definitely make this sound without any mistakes.
そして間違いなくこの音を出せる2つの方法をお見せします。
First of all, just look at my mouth.
まず、私の口を見てください。
That's a weird thing to ask, but look at my mouth.
変なお願いですけど、私の口を見てください。
When I say these two words, beach, bitch.
この2つの単語を言うとき、beach、Bitch。
Now let's try it without sound.
では今度は音なしでやってみましょう。
Can you see the difference, bitch?
違いが分かりますか、Bitch？
Your mouth is more closed, bitch.
口がもっと閉じています、Bitch。
And with beach, your mouth is making a smiley mouth, which is good.
そして beach では、口がスマイルの形になっていて、それがいいんです。
Beach, beach.
Beach、beach。
But you could also make this sound regardless of what mouth shape you make.
でも口の形に関わらず、この音は出せるんです。
For example, bitch, beach.
例えば、Bitch、beach。
I did the same mouth shape and produced two different sounds.
同じ口の形で2つの違う音を出しました。
So there's more to it than that.
だからそれだけじゃないんです。
It's what happens inside the mouth that's the real secret.
口の中で起こっていることが本当の秘密なんです。
And to do this, I'll use a pen.
そのために、このペンを使います。
I don't know whose pen this is, and I don't know where it's been.
誰のペンか分からないし、どこにあったのかも分かりません。
So with bitch, your tongue stays down.
Bitch では、舌は下がったままです。
With beach, your tongue comes up and closes the gap inside your mouth.
beach では、舌が上がってきて口の中の隙間を閉じます。
Let me demonstrate.
実演してみましょう。
E, e, e, e, e, e.
E、e、e、e、e、e。
So you see, to make the e, I had to lift my tongue up to get that e.
ほら、e を出すために、舌を持ち上げなければならなかったんです。
Because what it's doing, it's closing the mouth to get a higher pitch sound.
なぜなら、口を閉じてより高い音を出しているからです。
E.
E。
So tell us, what do you like to relax with?
さあ教えてください、リラックスするのに何が好きですか？
A nice, beautiful what?
素敵で美しい何でしょう？
Try these sentences.
これらの文を試してみてください。
I'm fascinated with ships.
私は船に魅了されています。
Where I'm from, there are lots of beaches.
私の出身地には、ビーチがたくさんあります。
Don't leave!
行かないで！
I can't live without you.
あなたなしでは生きていけない。
These chips are cheap.
このチップスは安い。
Don't call women bitches.
女性をビッチと呼ばないで。
It's wrong.
間違っています。
