2005.04.26(Review of 2004.02.12 edition)
We did a weeklong WordMaster For Life series on airline travel and time change from May 24-27, 2004. The series was called “Time Travel”. You might want to take a look at it, as we're treating a similar theme in @Work this week. Go to the “WordMaster For Life” top page and use the Search-By-Date (更新日から探す) engine at the bottom!
TIME DIFFERENCE 時差
- The time difference (between one place and another) is the number of hours earlier or later one place is compared to another.
- time difference は、ある地域の時刻と他の地域の時刻との差のことです。つまり、時差です。
- a: What's the time difference between Tokyo and Sydney?
b: I think Sydney is one hour ahead. - (at the office)
a: Why haven't you made that call yet?
b: Because with the nine-hour time difference, right now it's only 2:00 in the morning in London. - (wife to husband)
a: Why can't you call your client at the office? It's almost midnight!
b: I know, but the time difference between here and New York makes it hard to contact them while I'm at the office.
We'll see you again tomorrow!
