1
Mary, please.
2
Thank you, Mr. Hill.
3
Come on.
4
Mrs. Bennet, I was hoping, if it would not trouble you, that I might solicit a private audience with Miss Elizabeth in the course of the morning.
5
Oh, yes, certainly.
6
Lizzie will be very happy indeed.
7
Everyone out.
8
Mr. Collins would like a private audience with your sister.
9
No, wait, please.
10
I beg you, Mr. Collins can have nothing to say to me that anybody meet not here.
11
No nonsense, Lizzie.
12
I desire you will stay where you are.
13
Bring everyone else to the drawing room.
14
Mr. Bennet? But...
15
Now?
16
Jane.
17
Jane.
18
Jane.
19
Jane.
20
Dear Mrs. Elizabeth, I'm sure my attentions have been too marked to be mistaken.
21
Almost as soon as I entered the house, I singled you out as the companion of my future life.
22
but before i am run away with my feelings perhaps i may state my reasons for marrying firstly
23
that it is the duty of a clergyman to set the example of matrimony in his parish
24
secondly that i am convinced it will add greatly to my happiness
25
and thirdly that it is at the urging of my esteemed patroness lady catherine
26
that i select a wife my object in coming to Longbourn
27
was to choose such a one from among Mr Bennet's daughters for I am to inherit the estate
28
and such an alliance will surely suit everyone and now nothing remains
29
but for me to assure you in the most animated language of the violence of my affection mr. Collins and
30
that no reproach on the subject of fortune will cross my
31
lips once we're married you are too hasty sir you You forget that I have given no answer.
32
I must add that Lady Catherine will thoroughly approve when I speak to her of your modesty, economy, and other amiable qualities.
33
Sir, I am honored by your proposal, but I regret that I must decline it.
34
I know ladies don't seek to seem too easy.
35
Mr. Collins, I am perfectly serious.
36
You could not make me happy, and I'm convinced I'm the last woman in the world who could make you happy.
37
I've let it myself, cousin, that your refusal is merely a natural delicacy.
38
Besides, you should take into account that despite your manifold attractions, it's by no means certain that another offer of marriage may ever be made to you.
39
Mr. Collins!
40
So I must conclude that you simply seek to increase my love by suspense.
41
Sir.
42
According to the usual practice of elegant females.
43
Sir.
44
I am not the sort of female to torment a respectable man.
45
Please understand me.
46
I cannot accept you. That strong, foolish child.
47
Don't worry, Mr. Collins.
48
We'll have this little hiccup dealt with immediately.
49
Lizzie!
50
Lizzie!
51
Mr. Bennett.
52
Mr. Bennett we're all in an uproar you must come
53
and make lizzie marry mr collins mr collins has proposed to lizzie
54
but she vowed she will not have him and now the danger is mr collins may not have lizzie Well, what am I to do?
55
Well, come and talk to her.
56
Now!
57
Tell her you insist upon them marrying.
58
Papa, please.
59
You will have this house.
60
I can't marry her.
61
And save your sisters from destitution.
62
I can't.
63
Go back now and say you've changed your mind.
64
No. Think of your family.
65
You cannot make me.
66
Mr. Bennet, say something!
67
So, your mother insists on you marrying Mr. Collins.
68
Yes, or else you'll never see her again.
69
Well, Lizzie, from this day onward, you must be a stranger to one of your parents.
70
Who will maintain you when your father is dead?
71
Your mother will never see you again if you do not marry Mr. Collins, and I will never see you again if you do.
72
Mr. Bennet!
73
Thank you, Papa.
74
Ungrateful child!
75
I shall never speak to you again!
76
Not that I take pleasure in talking.
77
People who suffer as I do from nervous complaints can have no pleasure in talking to you anymore!

盗んで使いたいフレーズ&イディオム

会話の中には、ネイティブらしい表現がたくさんあります。shadowspeak(シャドースピーチ)の練習にぜひ使ってみてください!

  • solicit a private audience:個人的な話を求める。「ちょっと一人で話したいのですが」という丁寧な言い方。

発音を上げるコツ:shadow speechのポイント

この動画の発音練習では、英語の発音を良くするために「イントネーションの高低」と「リズムの速さ」に注目しましょう。特にMr. Collinsの台詞は、堅苦しい口調ですが、文末の上がり方や、長い文の途中での息継ぎがポイントです。shadowspeaksの練習では、彼の発音を真似て、「丁寧さ」と「固さ」を表現する感覚をつかみましょう。また、Elizabethの断り方は、しっかりとした意志を伝えながらも礼儀正しいので、その抑揚を再現することで、「断り方の芸術」を学べます。

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。
