My day 私の一日

現在形で日課を言います。習慣には動詞の原形:I get up, you work, we study。でも he / she / it には -s を付ける:he gets up, she works, it sleeps。この三人称 -s は忘れやすい。否定・疑問には do / does:I don't sleep, Does she work? 新しい語:get up, go, eat, drink, work, study, sleep, always, yesterday。発音コーナー:三人称 -s(三つの音:/s/, /z/, /ɪz/)と「get up」の連結。

He get up or he gets up? — He get up? he gets up?

  1. Emma Minsu, what time does your brother get up? ミンス、お兄さんは何時に起きますか?
  2. Minsu My brother get up at six. 兄は六時に起きます。(間違い: he/she には -s が必要 —「gets up」)
  3. Emma With "he", add -s: he gets up. 「he」には -s:he gets up。
  4. Minsu Oh, he gets up at six and I get up at seven. あ、兄は六時に、私は七時に起きます。

A normal day — 普通の一日

  1. Jack Emma, do you get up early? エマ、早く起きますか?
  2. Emma Yes, I get up at six. My sister gets up at eight. はい、私は六時に起きます。姉は八時に起きます。
  3. Jack And what does she do in the morning? 彼女は朝何をしますか?
  4. Emma She studies, and she always drinks coffee. 勉強して、いつもコーヒーを飲みます。

Present simple: he / she + -s 現在形:he / she + -s

For daily habits, English uses the present simple. With I / you / we / they you use the base verb: I get up, they work, we study. BUT with he / she / it you MUST add -s: he gets up, she works, it sleeps. Forgetting this -s is the most common mistake for many learners. For negatives and questions, use do (I/you/we/they) or does (he/she/it), and the main verb goes back to the base: I don't sleep in the afternoon, Does she work on Monday? (not "Does she works"). Note irregular: go → goes.

日常の習慣には英語は現在形。I / you / we / they には動詞の原形:I get up, they work, we study。でも he / she / it には必ず -s:he gets up, she works, it sleeps。この -s を忘れるのが多くの学習者の最も一般的な間違い。否定・疑問には do(I/you/we/they)か does(he/she/it)を使い、本動詞は原形に戻る:I don't sleep in the afternoon, Does she work on Monday?(「Does she works」ではない)。不規則に注意:go → goes。

  • I get up at seven, and she gets up at eight. 私は七時に、彼女は八時に起きます。
  • He always eats breakfast in the morning. 彼は朝いつも朝食を食べます。
  • I work in the morning and study in the evening. 私は朝働いて、夜勉強します。
  • Does she work on Monday? — No, she doesn't. 彼女は月曜に働きますか? — いいえ、働きません。
