Welcome back, as we close our March volume of WordMaster editions and bring you the first of our sunny offerings for April!
LAST (v.) 続く、もつ
- To last is to continue to happen, exist, or be available, to stay in a good or usable condition, or to be enough for a period of time.
- last とは、起こり続ける、存在し続ける、入手可能な状態であり続ける、良好、または使用可能な状態であり続ける、一定期間に十分な量がある、つまり、続く、もつ、という意味です。
- The movie starts at 7:00 and lasts about 2 1/2 hours.
- Enjoy the sun while it lasts, because it's supposed to rain for the rest of the week.
- (sales person to customer)
You'd better buy one now. At this price, they're not going to last long. - I have an extended-life battery for my laptop computer that lasts 5 to 6 hours.
- If you're looking for a DVD player you can use for years without it breaking down, you should get something from Berlitz-Tech. Their stuff lasts forever (= a long time).
- We certainly won't have to buy any more food for a while. We've got enough in the refrigerator to last a month.
Be well and happy!
