25. えー、そうなんだ(共感力) "I am happy!" "You ARE happy."
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。
