日常英会話ー英語で言いたい!「最善をつくす」

Everyday English
Make the most of it

Hello again,

In my blog yesterday I mentioned making the most of the year. We use the phrase “make the most of it” when we are trying to make something good out of an unpleasant situation.

For Example

“How was your holiday in Scotland?”
“Well the weather was awful, it rained non stop! We met a lot of nice people on our travels though and even though we didn’t get much fishing done we were able to make the most of it.”

“How was school?”
“Awful, I have so much homework to do this term!”
“Well, you better make the most of it now because it’ll only get harder from now on. “

Hope that comes in handy.
Jaimie

「Make the most of it. 最善をつくす / 最大限に利用する」

今日もよろしく。

昨日の私のブログで、この1年の中で最善を尽くすこと、について触れました。私達は、あまり望ましくない状況で良い結果を生み出そうとする時に 「make the most of it 最善をつくす」というフレーズを使います。

例えば

“How was your holiday in Scotland?”
(スコットランドでの休日はどうだった?)
“Well the weather was awful, it rained non stop! We met a lot of nice people on our travels though so even though we didn’t get much fishing done, we were able to make the most of it.”
(うーん、ひどい天気でずっと雨だったんだ!釣りはあまりできなかったけど、旅行中たくさんの素敵な人々に出会えたし、できる限り楽しんだよ。)

“How was school?”
(学校はどう?)
“Awful, I have so much homework to do this term!”
(ひどいもんだよ、今期はすごく宿題が多いんだ!)
“Well, you better make the most of it now because it’ll only get harder from now on. “
(そうなんだ、今できるだけ頑張っておくといいよ、なぜなら今からどんどん難しくなっていくだけだからね。)

お役に立ちますように。

ジェイミー
