Exercise 10: Thanks

 

Sample Dialogue 3

A senpai in your club, or a clubmate a year older than you, Ayako, approaches you and asks you to proofread a short English paper that she will need to present to her class in two days.  You help her for almost an hour until it is done.  Ayako thanks you and leaves.

 

 

後輩:先輩、これでだいたい良いと思います。  Senpai, korede daitai iito omoi masu.

 

先輩:ありがとう。もう、ほんとに一時間も見てくれて。ほんとうに助かる。ありがとうね。

Arigatou.  Mou, hontoni ichijikanmo mite kurete.  Hontouni tasukaru.  Arigatoune.

 

後輩:いいえ、僕でよかったらいつでも言って下さい。  Iie, bokude yokattara itsudemo itte kudasai.

 

先輩:ほんっとに助かる。ほんとにどうもありがとう。  Honttoni tasukaru.  Hontoni doumo arigatou.

 

後輩:じゃ、先輩、それじゃあまた明日。  Ja, senpai, sorejaa mata ashita.

 

先輩:ほんとにありがとう。  Hontoni arigatou.
