Use of "Please" and "Thank you" in short sentences 

相手から、説明を受けている時、質問をしていいのか、いけないのか、ちょっと躊躇する場面、ありますよね。そのような時は、理解を深めるためにも、ぜひ質問をしてもらいたいです！そして、もし質問を受けたなら、相手に”Thank you for your question!”、と言って褒めて下さい。そうすると、より聞きやすい雰囲気が生まれます！！ Thank you for 〜 の後は、your commentとか、your smileとか、色々思った感謝を伝えたら、尚良いです。ぜひ、積極的に発言が生まれる環境作りに、このきらりフレーズを！ 

今回ご紹介するのは、共感する言い回し。でも特定なフレーズ”Wow”とか、”That's great!”とかではなく、相手の言葉を引用する「オウム返し」の英語版！ルールは簡単です。相手の言い回しをそのまま使い、アクセントをちょっと変えるだけ。相手の方への共感力アップすること間違い無しです。例えば、"I am happy!"と言われたら、"You ARE happy" （AREは強調するので大文字で書いてます）と言えば良いです。"It is fun!" "It IS fun!"のようにも使えます。色々なシーンで共感してみてください。
