2009.02.16(Review of 2004.01.26 edition)
Greetings! It's a real pleasure to be back here with you once again!
We spent the weekend raiding our ever-growing WordMaster archives and came out with some real treasures - in fact, a whole week of them! If ever a theme made “sense,” this is the one. Enjoy!
MAKE SENSE 理にかなう、意味をなす
- Things make sense if there are good reasons for doing them or if they are reasonable or understandable.
- make sense は、何かをするのに十分な理由がある、つまり、理にかなっている、理解できる、という意味です。
- It just makes sense to prepare for earthquakes ahead of time.
- a: My father thinks that I should work for a year or two before starting graduate school.
b: I think that makes a lot of sense. - Keeping a budget for your family makes good sense.
- I don't understand why he turned down the job. It doesn't make sense. He'll never get a better offer.
- This essay doesn't make any sense. I have no idea what the writer is trying to say.
- Why do you bother to see a doctor if you're not going to take his advice? It makes no sense to me.
Another fine week has begun!
