...you know...(ユーノゥ)

日本語で「え〜...」が頻繁に使われるように、話している途中で考えを整理する時間稼ぎが必要になることはよくありますよね。

 

英語でもそんな表現はいくつかあり、and を伸ばして a〜〜nd (ア〜〜ンドゥ)みたいに発音しながら、次に言うことを考えるのが一番無難です。

 

同じ目的で使われる慣用句に、you know があります。

例えばこんな感じ:

He is probably right, you know. What I mean is, you know, he has never been wrong, you know, and I think that… You know!

(えっと、彼は多分正しいわね。つまり、その、これまで間違っていたことないし、その、私が思うに。。。。 ね、わかるわよね!)
