dictionary

Well, this is my new dictionary.

I bought it because it contains "Japanese accent dictionary" (it is essential for announcers in Japan).

But at the same time, this small body holds more than 100 contents!!

Let me see what it has... on top of the basic Japanese dictionaries and English dictionaries, encyclopedia, Japanese constitution, 100 well-known novels, handbooks of pills or supplements, medical handbook of dogs and cats, dictionary of haiku, movies, sports, business expressions, Japanese and world history and etc...

It also contains conversational expressions of 11 languages, such as English, Spanish, German, French, Italian, Chinese, Korean, Thai, Russian, Portuguese, Filipino and it even speaks!!

It's amazing to see how much technology has improved...

Party!

Today, after the recording session, I went out with the members of NHK radio program for nice dinner.

I really enjoy working with them.

Ed is such a nice guy and we have a lot of fun teasing each other!

Well, some people think we never make mistakes during recordings but that would be impossible! If you know me from World Interactive, you know how I am... (^^;)

Yes, our staff members are such good editors.

If I sound somehow unnatural sometime, that could be the reason.

After all, the program is not an entertainment program but an educational program.
