今日の英語ニュース☆2023.05.15☆時事英語・ニュース英語を極める
PBS News Weekend May 14, 2023
今日は上の動画サイトの字幕に多くの誤りや省略があったので(週末版はいつもそうです)、字幕ファイルを作るのはやめて簡単な語句説明だけにしました。下の語句の説明のところの英語は、実際に英語音声を聞いて誤りを訂正し、省略を補足してあります。
いつものような字幕ファイルが必要な人は、リンク先の方法で簡単にできますので自分で作ってください(元の字幕に含まれている誤りや省略はそのままになります)。
週末版の字幕は、翌日以降に比較的正確なものに差し替えられるようです。でも、ニュース番組なので、翌日以降に更新されても…
それでは、今日も一緒に英語のニュースを見ていきましょう!

・分からない言葉はこの2つの辞書でたいてい見つかると思います
