Welcome to my latest video on learning technical and engineering English.
2
Today what I'm going to do is I'm going to go through some of the tools that are used in engineering
3
and I'll tell you the tools in English with a little explanation of how they're used.
4
So the first tool is a veneer caliper and the veneer caliper is to measure internal and external sizes
5
and here you can see the internal and external calipers.
6
External micrometer.
7
The external or outside micrometer is to measure outside sizes or diameters.
8
Internal micrometer.
9
Engineers use the internal micrometer to measure inside diameters.
10
Depth micrometer.
11
Engineers use the depth gauge micrometer to measure depths or how deep something is.
12
Dial gauge.
13
A dial gauge is to measure distance.
14
The measurement is on a clock called a dial.
15
Height gauge.
16
Height gauge is to measure the height of something, how high it is.
17
It is also used to mark an object object.
18
Surface table.
19
A surface table is a solid flat table used as the main horizontal reference for precision measurement marking or inspection.
20
Steel ruler.
21
Steel rulers are to measure distances or to rule straight lines.
22
Engineer squares.
23
An engineer square is to check a work piece is square, that is that two sides are at 90 degrees to one another.
24
Straight edge.
25
Straight edge is to check that surfaces are straight.
26
Scribing block.
27
Scribing block is used to check flat surfaces and to find the centre of the round bars.
28
Trammel or trammels.
29
Engineers trammel heads are for scribing arcs and circles.
30
Protractor.
31
Most protractors measure angles in degrees.
32
Ascriber.
33
Ascriber is a hand tool used in metalwork to mark lines on work pieces before you machine the piece.
34
V-block.
35
A V-block is to secure round or cylindrical items or work pieces.
36
Parallels.
37
Parallels are to support and accurately set jobs in vice or bolted to the machine table.
38
Angle plates.
39
Angle plates are used to hold a workpiece for marking or measuring.
40
Dividers.
41
Dividers are used for scribing circles on metal also used for measuring distances of markings.
42
Center punch.
43
A A center punch is to make small points used as markers for drilling.
44
Okay, so that's a list of some of the most used tools in engineering.

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。
