Product Description

内容説明

Updated for the 21st century, How to Speak Politely and Why is a picture book with a point: proper speech and good grammar without nagging. It aims to remove “ain’t” and “uh-huh” and “gimme” and “got” and a score of unfortunate nuances by a simple, sure painless and humorous process. In his signature style of amusing stick figure drawings and captions, Leaf makes clear such things as the difference between can and may, and the reason why one does not say “he done it” or “she come.”
Exasperated parents (and grandparents) faced with the unpleasant task of dealing with grammatical lapses acquired by their children from (gasp!) their neighbor’s children will be delighted (and relieved) by this veritable “grammar without tears.” Teachers will find it an indispensable ally, and even the culprits themselves—the children—will discover that learning to speak politely and correctly isn’t such a chore after all.

海外に出て、慣れない英語でサバイバルし、なんとか一応話せるようになった・・・かな?という貴方にお勧めする本。体当たりで会得している子供達にはなおさら必要なことを書いているので、一緒に読んで「きちんと話すことの大切さ」を見直しましょう。薄い本ですが、NG WORDSから簡単な文法まで網羅し、それを愉快な絵で「この言葉はこ〜んな感じ」という風に表現してます。1934年に出版された”Grammer Can Be Fun, How to Speak Politely and Why”の改訂版ですが、今でも十分通用するあたり、どこの国も言葉の乱れには苦労してるんだなあと感じました。
