Hello again! Thank you for taking the time to join us in celebrating the start of April. We hope today's edition puts a spring in your step!
(That's a) GOOD IDEA. (それは)いい考えですね。
- To say that a suggestion is a good idea or not a bad idea means that you like it or agree with it.
If you'd like to show that you REALLY like or STRONGLY agree with a suggestion, you can say that it's a great idea, a terrific idea, a wonderful idea, etc. - ある提案について good idea または not a bad idea と言うと、その提案が気に入った、またはその提案に賛成している、ということを表します。
ある提案について、とても気に入ったり、強く賛成したりすることを表そうとする場合、 great idea 、 terrific idea 、 wonderful idea などと言うことができます。
- a: I think we should have everyone introduce themselves before we start the meeting.
b: Good idea. - a: Why don't we get Bob and Barb a rice cooker for their wedding?
b: That's not a bad idea. - (teachers at an elementary school)
a: Today I'm going to make sushi rolls with my Japanese class - teach them a little bit of Japanese culture and some cooking vocabulary at the same time.
b: Oh, that's a terrific idea! - a: I've printed out all the WordMasters from the past nine years and am wallpapering my apartment with them.
b: What a great idea! Maybe I'll do that, too.
So, what do you have on your walls? :)
