1
Where the devil is...
2
Columbo.
3
Why, Mr. Dirk?
4
Miss Stanhope?
5
Mr. Frame?
6
Oh, and Lieutenant.
7
You're beginning to look exactly like a Londoner.
8
Oh, you mean this?
9
No, no, no, ma'am.
10
No, I just bought this.
11
You see, ever since I've been in London, I've been thinking and thinking what would be the best souvenir to bring back to Los Angeles.
12
I thought you'd be on your way back home by now.
13
Right, but I sort of missed the plane.
14
Anyway, it suddenly struck me an umbrella.
15
Mr. Jones, did someone ask you to invite us here?
16
What are those curtains doing there?
17
I thought we were going to get to see an exhibit.
18
Jones?
19
Oh, yes.
20
Yes, I'm dying to see it.
21
After all that silly business we had modeling for it, There you are, sir.
22
Quite remarkable.
23
Yes, it is.
24
Do I really look like that?
25
Marvelous.
26
Let me tell you, I don't want to repeat myself, but the other night when I saw that performance that you two...
27
Dirk, will you please explain what we're doing here?
28
Why don't you ask the tour guide?
29
Well, what about the other one?
30
Isn't Mr. Havisham ready?
31
Oh, yes, yes.
32
I'm sure you want to see this too as part of the exhibit.
33
Look at that.
34
Boy, isn't that something?
35
Of course, I didn't know him the way you folks did.
36
I guess you were closer to him than anybody.
37
Poor Roger.
38
Kind of shakes you, doesn't it?
39
Do you know they have stuff in the chamber of Horace here that actually makes my skin crawl?
40
I think it's disgusting.
41
Putting him on display.
42
Listen, I know how you must feel.
43
And I sympathize with you.
44
But you know somebody's been murdered?
45
And you know what they tell me?
46
They tell me folks around here they kind of enjoy that sort of thing.
47
You want to bet they hang up a figure of Mr. Tanner, too?
48
Most people, Columbo, have frightful taste, yourself included.
49
I don't have to excuse us.
50
Come along, Lilly.
51
Not just yet, sir.
52
Well, if you think we're going to play some sort of charade with this ridiculous...
53
Mr. Frame, I'm always getting you angry.
54
I'm sorry about that.
55
It must be my accent or something.
56
But I wanted you here because I wanted you to help me prove something.
57
Um, I think I'll get rid of this.
58
I don't think Mr. Tanner killed anybody like the newspapers are saying.
59
I think it was you.
60
Oh, Lieutenant, just when I was beginning to like you.
61
This is going to sound silly, but Sir Roger, he was killed someplace else, and his body was moved later on,
62
and if I can only prove where it was that he drove that night, prove who it was that he went to see,
63
then everything will start falling into place.
64
Well, he did not come to see us.
65
Now, how many times...
66
No, sir, not to your dressing room in the theater.
67
It was to yours.
68
That's where the umbrellas come in.
69
I guess umbrellas are the kind of thing that I can understand.
70
You know, I've been watching people to see what they do with umbrellas when they come in out of the rain.
71
They close the umbrella.
72
They give it a shake like this.
73
And they find someplace to lean it against.
74
But they never fasten this strap because then it won't dry properly.
75
Fascinating.
76
There's only one problem with that.
77
Sometimes things drop in.
78
Almost anything can drop in.
79
So I got to thinking, if maybe that's what Sir Roger did with his umbrella, and something dropped into it that night,
80
Well, then maybe, uh, got these things here somewhere.
81
Just give me a moment, won't you?
82
Oh, forgive me.
83
Amazing likeness, isn't it? Where was I?
84
Oh, yes.
85
Uh, ma'am, the other night I stepped on a pearl in your dressing room.
86
I have some more just like it.
87
I got it from your costumer.
88
She says she makes them.
89
Oh, yes.
90
Well, maybe.
91
If the necklace was broken in the fight, like you said.
92
But, but, that, that was Nicky and I.
93
Uh, Jones, bring us that umbrella, would you?
94
Oh, yes.
95
Yes.
96
Well, there's a chance.
97
There's a pretty good chance that if the fight was with Sir Roger...
98
No, no, it wasn't.
99
Well, there's no point speculating.
100
Mr. Jones, could we move back just a little, give the gentleman room?
101
Mr. Jones, would you open the umbrella, sir?
102
Why, it's the same.
103
Exactly the same.
104
Well, ma'am?
105
Sir?
106
Sir.
107
Sir.
108
Tomorrow.
109
Tomorrow.. and tomorrow...
110
Mickey, stop it!
111
He put it there!
112
Can't you see before we came?
113
He put it there!
114
Jones, has anybody but you touched that umbrella?
115
No, sir.
116
I'll testify to that.
117
Then he must have done it when we weren't looking.
118
Oh, Mickey, please!
119
.. have lighted tools!
120
He was mad, don't you see?
121
He didn't know what he was doing!
122
I know he didn't.
123
And Sir Roger, that was my fault.
124
I understand.
125
It was in Amsterdam.
126
I swear it.
127
Mr. Strutzen...
128
Oh, Mr. Jones.
129
It was his hour.
130
Don't be too hard on me.
131
You must try to understand.
132
Yes, well, I think we can settle all this at the yard.
133
Smythe, will, you take over, eh?
134
Very good, sir. And Fiore.
135
Tomorrow. And tomorrow.
136
Thank you, Mr. Jones.
137
Now I believe you can replace the umbrella and open your doors.
138
Anything from the yard, Mr. Dirk.
139
It's been very interesting.
140
Ah, bit of luck, eh?
141
Hmm?
142
How did you know that bead was in there?
143
Oh, just the odds.
144
The odds were very poor, and you know it.
145
Come now, you can do better than that.
146
Off the record, eh?
147
Well, Mr. Dirk, when you were maybe in the third or fourth grade...
148
...and there was a pretty redheaded girl in the front row...
149
...and you couldn't get her attention...
150
Um...
151
Well, go on.
152
Just a little trick I learned.
153
Excuse me.
154
Throat.
155
Amazing likeness.
156
Bye, Jeff.
157
Just one more thing.

このレッスンについて

このレッスンでは、テレビシリーズ「コロンボ」の一部を通じて、英語スピーキング練習に役立つ表現や語彙を学びます。コロンボの明確で特徴的な話し方を模倣することで、あなたの発音とリスニング能力を向上させることを目指します。このレッスンでは、特に「shadowspeak」を意識し、自然な会話のリズムを身につけることができます。動画の内容を基にしながら、効果的な英語を身につける方法を探求しましょう。

練習のコツ

この動画では、コロンボの話し方は比較的ゆっくりとしたペースで、明瞭な発音が特徴です。まず、動画を何度も観て、コロンボの声のトーンやリズムを耳で覚えましょう。shadow speakのテクニックを使って、彼のセリフを繰り返し声に出してみてください。特に感情や抑揚を付けることで、実際の会話に近づけることができます。また、YouTubeで英語学習を行う際は、発音を正確にすることが重要ですので、英語スピーキング練習の際には、練習するフレーズを録音し、自分の声を確認するのも効果的です。IELTS スピーキング対策として、このようにして自分の発音をチェックし、改善することができます。

シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由

シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
