ばんざーい！　１００万語

Hello ! I'm Cathy.
Nice to meet you!
I tried to write this report in English.

I've made it !!
At last I read the one millionth word !
The book, the 311th, was " Fantastic Mr Fox", by Roald Dahl.
I took 1 year.
I started by reading..... no.....looking at books which have only pictures for a million words reading.
And then I read picture books with some lines or sentences.
I think picture books were great.
If I didn't understand a word, there was a picture, then I could guess the word's meaning.
I thought that starting from picture books, I could learn English step by step.
The SSS Extensive Reading Method has 3 rules.
1. Don't check dictionaries.
2. Skip the parts that you don't understand.
3. Quit reading the books that you don't have any interest in.
Don't check...!?
I always checked a dictionary if I had a word I didn't understand.
At first I wanted to check it.
I need to raise my courage.
But I got used to not checking it.
Now I can often guess the word's meaning.
And then I was really into reading books.
I was really glad that I discovered the SSS Extensive Reading Method.
I started to understand English vaguely by reading a lot of English sentences.
I was really glad that I could read books happily.
I didn't think I could read so many books.
I was very glad when I read one million words.
At the beginning one million words was my goal, but now I think ...
I'll shoot for 10,000,000 now.
I'll read more and more for 2 million, 3 million....etc.
Reading books is a lot of fun.
BANZA~I !!

こんばんは、タドキストCathyさん、１００万語通過おめでとうございます。

英語で書くよりは日本語のほうが楽なので日本語でいきます。
（アウトプットは全然ダメなので）

こういう、通過報告もいいですね。

Dahlが受け付けられるのであれば、Dahlの有名どころ読むと面白いと
思います。

辞書も辞書に頼らないで読めると思えるようになれば、使っていいようです。
通勤時間で読まれているのであれば電子辞書がいいみたいですね。
発音がちゃんとでる電子辞書をちょっと探していたりします。

えーと、シリーズ物信奉者の私としては1000万語は好みのジャンルか
シリーズ物を見つけると楽になると思っています。

シリーズ物、楽しいですよ。

楽しい多読を、ではではー。

1,000万語！？
Oh! You are great!
Thank you for your helpful advice.
I'll try to other Roald Dahl next time.
But easy one.. ^^; Because I'm a beginner.
Now I'm reading "Magic Tree House" series.
They are really interesting and I can't put them down.
I'll shoot these books !!!

こんばんは、タドキストCathyさん。

多分、タイプミスかと思ったのですが、将来の1000万語通過報告の
イメージがだぶっていまったのかと思いそのままにしました。
1000万語って書いてますよ〜、なので予言なのです、多分。

MTH、読んでますよ〜、私も、何万語読んでも面白いものは面白いです。
今まで読んだのは24巻までだったかな。
好きな本を読むのが一番です。

ではではー。
