名字— Part 1 評分報告

建議: 質問に対して「状況によります」と直接答えられていますが、後半が文として完結していません。また、“like”や“meeting”の繰り返し、“the personal meeting”など不自然な表現があります。仕事の場では覚えやすく、大人数のパーティーでは覚えにくい、という対比を理由とともに2〜3文で簡潔に説明しましょう。

範例: It depends on the situation. I can usually remember someone's name when I meet them in a small group, especially at work. At a large party, though, I often meet so many people that I forget their names.

建議: 名刺を見るという具体的な方法を挙げている点はよいです。ただし、“often usually”は重複しており、“look up to them”は「尊敬する」という意味なので、ここでは“look at/check the card”を使います。まず方法を直接答え、その後、名刺がない場合にどうするかを自然につなげましょう。

範例: I usually repeat the person's name to myself after we meet. At work, I also check their business card, which helps me remember their name. If I don't have a card, I try to connect the name with something about the person.

建議: 「少しがっかりする」という気持ちは伝わりますが、“nervous or disappointed”の選択が曖昧で、後半も文が途中で終わっています。また、“my name is so simple”や“get into the occasion”はこの文脈では不自然です。自分の名前は日本でよくある名前なので、忘れられることはあまりない、という説明を完結した文で続けましょう。

範例: I feel a little disappointed, although I understand that it can be difficult to remember names. Fortunately, both my surname and given name are quite common in Japan, so people don't often forget them.

建議: 質問に明確に答え、クラスメートや職場の同僚という具体例も示せています。一方で、“someone's names”は“people's names”が自然で、“I”の繰り返しや最後の“So yeah, no”は不要です。また、“classmates of my high school”は“high-school classmates”のように簡潔にしましょう。

範例: No, I don't forget people's names very often. I can still remember the names of all my high-school classmates, and I usually learn my colleagues' names quickly when I start a new job.

× Well, that depends on the occasion. Like for example, if I meet someone in person, like a meeting, the personal meeting or those kind of things, I quite quickly pick up someone's name but in the occasion like parties or somewhere there are so many people I cannot do

✓ Well, that depends on the occasion. For example, if I meet someone in person at a meeting or in a similar situation, I can pick up their name quite quickly. However, at parties or in places where there are many people, I cannot remember them all.

Those kind of things should be those kinds of things because those refers to plural things. Use occasions rather than occasion when referring to parties in general. Also, I cannot do is incomplete here; I cannot remember them all completes the intended meaning.

× Cards, for example, in business locations, we often usually exchange our business cards, so I will look up to them sometimes and pick up the name and in other occasion I just try to remember the name.

✓ For example, at work, we often exchange business cards, so I sometimes look at them to remember the names. On other occasions, I just try to remember the name.

Look up to someone means to admire that person. To refer to checking a business card, use look at. Use on other occasions, not in other occasion.

× So I feel a bit nervous or s- disappointed, but actually my name is so simple as my surname is quite so familiar in Japan and also my even name is also quite popular so I don't uh get into the occasion that someone don't pick up

✓ I feel a bit nervous or disappointed, but my name is easy to remember because my surname is familiar in Japan and my given name is also quite popular. As a result, I do not often encounter situations where someone fails to remember my name.

As does not correctly connect the idea that the name is easy to remember with the reason for it. Use because to introduce the reason. The response also ends with an incomplete phrase, so the final idea is completed here.

× I don't uh get into the occasion that someone don't pick up

✓ I do not often encounter situations where someone does not remember my name.

Someone is a singular subject, so the verb must be does not, not don't. The corrected sentence also makes the intended meaning clear.

× No, I'm quite confident in remembering someone's names.

✓ No, I'm quite confident about remembering people's names.

Someone is singular, but names is plural. Use people's names when referring to the names of people in general.
