3, 2, 1...
"Naki Eigo"!
You were energetic at first.
Yes, I was.
"Three, two, one" was a big one.
It was my first time.
It was your first time, wasn't it? Yes.
You don't say things like that, do you? No, I don't.
You don't say "wow" or anything like that, do you?
I did, but...
Michael Jackson didn't know much about it.
That's right.
"Now, it's started again" is the catchphrase,
but the season is about to end in August.
You suck!
That's right.
But you'll get better at it, so do your best.
I'll do my best.
Students, summer vacation is about to end,
but what did you do for your summer vacation homework?
I used to leave it for the first day of school.
For sure?
Seriously! Seriously!
I started doing it as soon as I got it.
What about your morning growth diary?
That's a lie.
If I don't do it well,
and if I don't do it well in the end, my parents would tell me to do it.
But if I do it every day,
it's better to get scolded by my teacher only once in the morning.
So I didn't do it.
That's terrible!
You didn't do it?
You didn't get scolded later?
I didn't get scolded later.
You know, you do it in the end,
so it's only negative if you get scolded.
That's true.
That's right, Albusher-san.
Let's move on.
Sato-san.
As Higuchi-san will be performing on stage again,
we have a wonderful guest with us.
Mayu Tamura, born in 1946 in Nogizaka.
Hi, I'm Mayu Tamura.
I'm 20 years old.
I like eating and sleeping.
I'm happy, girls. Thank you!
How was it, Tamura-san?
Tamura-san, hello! Nice to meet you!
Nice to meet you, too!
Continuing from last time,
I'm surprised at the level of four generations.
I see.
You were amazing last time, too, Hayakawa-san.
What kind of person is Tamura-san to you?
When I first joined,
Mayu and I introduced ourselves as juniors.
When we introduced ourselves as juniors,
you and Mayu gave us quizzes.
Yes, we gave you quizzes.
It was a very good competition.
I was wondering if you were a doppelganger or not.
That's right!
This is bad!
It was a very good competition.
I'm looking forward to seeing a female doppelganger!
Nogizaka!
Here is the first lesson!
"Avoid Trouble in English"!
Airplane and Airport Edition!
This is difficult!
Airplane and Airport Edition!
Try English lessons in situations that are common during overseas trips!
This time, it's Airplane and Airport Edition!
Your opponent is Nick!
This time, it's Airplane and Airport Edition!
Have you ever had any trouble or anything like this before?
At the airport?
What happened, Ms. Shiuchi?
When I went to New York...
Oh, that's good!
I had a transfer.
When I left, I had a transfer.
I got an orange "hurry up" paper at the airport.
But I didn't know what it was.
It was lined up in a row.
And then...
I had to get an ESTA.
ESTA is like a permit, right?
You pay for it.
I said "I don't have it. I don't have it."
And I was about to be taken to a different place.
But a Japanese man helped me.
He translated everything for me and I managed to escape.
That's good!
Don't you fall in love with him?
When you're in trouble.
I thought he was a superstar.
That's right.
I thought he was Superman.
By the way, do you know what "ESTA" is?
"INEESTA"?
That's a soccer player!
ESTA is a permission to apply in advance for entering the United States.
"MES UADA".
Make sure you remember it.
I was stopped at an airport in New Zealand.
And I was told "There's a bomb in your bag."
And a dog came and wagged its tail and barked.
And I was surrounded by people with shields.
And I was told "Come here" and I was taken away.
Why did the dog bark?
What did the dog react to?
I don't know but...
I get barked a lot by dogs.
You don't know English, do you?
Let's start the lesson.
The first one is "MES UADA".
Excuse me.
Okay.
Can I help you, ma'am?
I'm hungry.
Oh, I'm sorry.
We brought the food out while you were sleeping.
Sleeping, sorry.
I'm hungry.
Lunch, please.
I might need to check if we still have lunch.
Our menu, we had both meat and we had fish.
Which one would you like?
Fish.
Fish? Yes.
Is that it? Do you have any allergies? Everything's okay?
Okay.
Okay. What would you like to drink?
Orange.
Orange? Okay, I'll be right back.
Thank you.
Here you go. Thank you.
Delicious, delicious.
Time's up!
That was really good.
I couldn't believe it.
First of all,
what I thought was great was
when you called her out,
you couldn't say "Excuse me."
Japanese people say "I'm sorry" a lot.
But you said "Excuse me" and called her out.
That was good, too.
And you asked her "Meat or fish?"
But before you said that,
she had a bad personality,
so she said
irrelevant words
like "meat" and "fish."
I didn't know what you said at first,
but you said "meat" and "fish."
You asked her irrelevant words
and said "fish."
That's fine.
Flight attendants say the same thing
hundreds of times,
so it's fast.
They tend to say only important things strongly.
They listen to what you say strongly and say "ah, that's what you say" and answer when they know it.
They were able to do the most basic things like that.
There's only one thing I thought was dangerous.
It's this word. Please pronounce it.
Aladdin
What is it?
"Aladdin"?
Aladdin
Think about the literal meaning of this sentence.
"Aladdin" doesn't come up and "New Star" doesn't come up either.
Aladdin
Do you know what it means?
If you know it, say it, Tamura!
"energy"?
What does it mean?
The flight attendant asked you "do you have any allergies?"
What does it mean?
Do you have powers?
"energy"?
"allergy"?
That's right.
I'm really good at English, but sometimes I pretend like I know it and ignore it.
Yes, yes, yes.
It's the most embarrassing point.
So in this case, it might be a little dangerous.
If you ignore it when you're asked about your allergies in the plane,
you might really have allergies.
I'm glad I don't have allergies.
It might be like that now, but it might be possible later.
By the way, when you ask a flight attendant for something,
remember the expression "Could you bring me ______?"
Here is the next theme!
I don't know what it means.
By the way, Tamura-san, do you know what it means?
Did you lose your bag?
I see.
Then, Wada-chan!
The last baggage?
Last baggage?
Last baggage...
You left something, didn't you?
Did you take the last one?
"Miss Wada", it's not "last" but "lost baggage".
This means that the baggage you left at the airport will be lost.
The guest, Tamura-san, will challenge this common problem overseas!
Let's start with the part where you go to the reception without finding your baggage.
Here is the bag you lost.
It's about this size.
I'd like you to tell me the color and size of it.
Is it OK, Tamura-san?
Yes!
Please think about it and do it!
Then, ready...
Start!
Flight?
Is it OK?
Carrycase?
Not...
What is a "carrycase"?
Lost...
Do you mean your bag? You lost your bag!
Yes!
OK!
OK, where are you flying from?
Flight from...
Where are you flying from?
Hawaii... airport?
Are you hawaiian? Are you from hawaii?
Oh? I'm from hawaii?
Yeah.
You are? OK.
Time's up!
What? I can't do it!
Hey, Tamura!
I'm terrible, aren't I?
Although Tamura, a female, has challenged herself for a long time,
her speech hasn't improved at all.
Here, as a pinch-hitter, Miss Shinchi, who has a lot of experience of traveling abroad, will challenge!
What color is your bag?
Girl...
I'm back in...
You're back?
Navy.
It's navy.
Navy.
Around how big is it?
One more time?
How big is it?
Big?
Is it...
So-so.
Okay.
Is there a label on it?
Is there a label?
Is your name on the bag?
Name on bag?
Yeah, your name.
Is it...
Your name is not on the bag?
No label.
Okay.
All right, let me check.
Okay, what would you like to do...
Send?
Send.
Oh, you want us to send the bag to the hotel?
Yeah.
Okay, please tell me the name of the hotel and we'll send it.
One Surf Rider.
What?
One Surf Rider Hotel.
Okay.
Time's up!
Okay, okay, okay.
Ms. Tamura and Ms. Shiuchi went smoothly instead of "uh".
Now, let's have a teacher explain where Ms. Tamura went wrong.
At first, Mr. Tamura...
"Carry case"... you don't say "carry case", do you?
Yeah, maybe you say "bag" or...
No, "bag"...
"Carry case" seems like an English word used by Japanese people.
Maybe it has a small image, like a very small "carry case".
But you usually call this "suitcase".
Yeah, "suitcase".
This is "suitcase", right?
Yes.
What do you think of Mr. Tamura's "I was" and "back"?
I think Japanese people use "I'm" and "I was" too easily.
Even in an airplane, "I am coffee" and "I am orange" and "I am" and "I was" may be too easily used by Japanese people.
During lessons, they asked you about your size.
But some countries don't use meters.
So, it's good to check it before you go on a trip.
Here is the next lesson.
Pressure pronunciation battle!
This is a one-shot game to see if you can correctly pronounce the pronunciation of voice recognition software.
You can practice as many times as you like before the challenge, but you can't ask anyone.
Also, if you can't correctly pronounce it, you will receive a penalty game.
Here is the game.
Ms. Higuchi has challenged this game in advance.
Please take a look at it.
So, Ms. Higuchi will challenge with the same rules as in the studio.
The penalty game she is curious about is...
Electric shock with low frequency!
I really don't like it.
Are you confident in your pronunciation?
I'm not confident in my pronunciation, but I think I can understand it.
I'm a little scared of it, but I'm scared of it.
I think it's easy for you to get scared of it.
You should try it, too!
I really don't like it.
Here is the first question.
Here you are.
I can't help it.
Here you are.
Bread!
Here you are.
I think it's a difficult one.
It means a lot of things.
Okay, I'll practice more.
I hope you can understand it.
I can do it!
Here you are.
I can do it.
Here you are.
No, it's not!
Wow, are you okay?
It hurts quite a bit.
It's hard to recognize, isn't it?
No, it's not.
It was pretty good, wasn't it?
I know what you mean.
But you have to make a firm sound.
I can do it.
It's cold.
Cold.
But it sounds like "call" or something.
This is also difficult.
It's true.
"Call".
I shouldn't say "call" though.
I'll say "called".
Okay.
Challenge time!
Please.
"Called".
No!
Wow!
It's hard to recognize, isn't it?
"Called".
It hurts!
The actual person is practicing a lot right now.
I did it twice!
This is tough.
I did it!
It's difficult.
It's "called".
But you have to say it properly.
Why?
This is a very subtle difference.
Although Messi Gucci failed, can the four people in the studio succeed?
Now!
Yes.
This is what will happen, so I hope you all succeed in the challenge.
Please don't be embarrassed and try to sound like a native speaker.
Try to sound like a native speaker.
Okay?
Okay.
If you do that, your English will get better and better.
Okay.
Now, let's get started.
The first challenger is Shiuchi!
It's okay.
Shiuchi is good at sounding like a native speaker.
I'm very good at it!
That's how you always are.
What's your favorite topic, Messiuchi?
It's "library".
Oh, this is...
It's a matter of chance, isn't it?
Long words are advantageous.
You can recognize long words easily.
And...
You can practice more and more.
And there are no words that are similar.
But you have to be careful.
There are "l" and "r" in it.
Now, if you think you can do it, please say it.
You can do it! You can do it!
I can fly!
You can fly!
Yeah! I can fly!
Will Messiuchi be able to do it?
library
You did it!
Great!
You did it!
Great!
But you did it!
Anyone can do it!
The point is the pronunciation of "l".
The pronunciation of "l" is "library" with the tongue sticking up.
The last "ri" of "library" is "r" so "library" with the tongue sticking up.
You did it!
The next challenger is Sato Me.
What is her topic of interest?
It's difficult.
She doesn't like it again.
It's the pronunciation of "v".
It's difficult for Japanese people.
v
Will Sato Me. succeed in a row?
Three
Two
One
Vinegar
Wow, that's amazing!
She said it exactly like a person who is fluent in English.
That was like perfect!
Wow, that's amazing!
Ness Sato's perfect pronunciation of the "rii" sound.
The point is to hit the upper front teeth with the lower lips.
Now, the next challenger is Ness Wada.
Will she be able to clear it in a row?
Ah, it's difficult!
But, it might have been a bad hit. This is difficult.
I see.
It has everything that Japanese people are not good at.
I see.
Shall we practice?
Let's practice.
Wa-ru
Ah, my head is hard.
No, it's fine.
What should I be careful of?
Will she be able to pronounce the word properly?
Rii
Tu
Wan
Here we go.
Wa-ru
Ouch!
Are you alright?
It hurts!
I've stopped it!
It hurts!
No, I've cut it!
No, I've cut it! Did you see it?!
The last challenger is our guest, Ms. Tamura.
What will she challenge?
Ah, this again!
Jewelry
I see.
This is hard.
This is a difficult one.
Jewelry
It's long, so I think she'll be able to do it.
She recognizes long ones.
Jewelry
Hm?
Jewelry
Will Ms. Tamura be able to avoid the penalty game?
Rii
Tu
Wan
Jewelry
It suits you very well!
Maybe I should have said "out" or something like that?
Oh, yes.
I'm sorry. I'm usually the one who gets beaten up like this.
Unfortunately, Messa Moola failed.
Let's have the native, Nick, show us his example.
Now, it's Nick's turn. Please!
Jewelry
Wow!
He's surprised.
What about "world"?
World
Wow!
You're amazing!
You're really serious about this!
You're full of energy!
Well, I'm an American.
Can you speak Japanese?
Now that we've seen Nick's cool side of him, let's move on to the next lesson.
The next lesson is...
"This is 〇〇 Survival"!

They both fought hard, but the winner is...
Shinichi and Tamura team!
On the other hand, the losers will play a penalty game...
"Narikiri Freddie Mercury"...
with all their might!
Music, start!
Narikiri Freddie Mercury
Time's up!
Well...
It's rare for a director...
to cry all the time.
It's rare.
Well, well, well...
How was it?
Um...
It's your first time today, Tamura, right?
Yes.
Um...
My fans call me "idiot" a lot.
But I'm telling you now...
that I'm not an idiot.
So I'm glad.
Ah...
But you looked like one around there.
What?
You were called "idiot".
