We've dipped into the archives today and found a WordMaster that should feel right at home among the rest of this week's editions. Give it a good look!

Today's LessonCATEGORY: 間違えやすいボキャブラリー
(three) TIMES A (day)   1(日に)(3)回

Explanation

  • If you brush your teeth 3 times every day, then you brush your teeth 3 times a day. If you exercise 4 times every week, then you exercise 4 times a week. ... and so on.

    Be careful! Instead of “one time” or “two times”, we usually say “once” or “twice”.
  • もし、毎日3回歯を磨くなら、You brush your teeth 3 times a day. と言います。もし、週4回運動するなら、You exercise 4 times a week. などと言うことができます。

    注意:通常、one time や two times というかわりに、once や twice という表現を使います。

examples

  1. I take English lessons three times a week and practice at home with tapes every night before I go to bed.
  2. I have to take a shower twice a day when the weather is this hot - sometimes even three times a day on the weekend.
  3. We only go to the movies about once a month. We see most movies on DVD or video now.
