Roza: So, guys, as we mentioned before, don’t focus too much on Japanese translation to English. Just think about the situation and the feeling of what you are trying to say and enjoy.
Chris: Exactly. In other words, don’t analyze too much. Just let English flow from your mouth, OK?

Hi, what’s up?
I have a problem with my neighbor’s cat. He’s a little cute cat with a beautiful coat of fur. But he comes in through the kitchen window and scares my birds. Can we talk after work?
Hi, what’s up?
I have a bit of problem with my next-door neighbor’s cat. Actually, she’s a gorgeous cat with bright emerald eyes. But she often comes through our back garden and into the kitchen. Could you drop by for a chat about this after work tonight?
Roza: So, guys. Speaking of cats, I’m sure, you know, how much I love cats, right?
Chris: Yes, we know. Nonstop.
Sensei: Yes, you always talk about your cats.
Roza: Actually, I have a story. So, a long time ago, I was on a shoot. Way in a countryside of Kawaguchi-ko and I saw this beautiful cat with sky-blue eyes and he was so sweet and he came up to me and just sat on my lap I was such a sweet heart. But he was an abandoned cat. I wanted to take him home. But we were on a ROKE-bus. So I had to leave him there. I still can’t to forget about him.
Chris: This is such a sad story.
Roza: I know.
