Hello,
Before class started today we talked about a few common words in English about price.
price : 価格
fee : 料金
bill : ビル
pay : 払う
charge : 料金 /チャージ
Today I got my electric bill in the mail. I was surprised that my monthly usage charge was so high. In the envelope with the bill was a piece of paper that said the fee would increase next month. I will go to the convenient store tonight and pay my bill.
We also talked about how to say, “It’s been a while since ________ .
For example;
It’s been a while since I went out drinking with my friends. It’s also been a little while since I drank alcohol.
We also practiced how to say “something is supposed to” or “something should be”.
For example;
Since it is Sunday the bank is supposed to be closed.
The weather forecast said that its supposed to be sunny tomorrow. Today was a sunny and clear day so tomorrow should be nice weather too.
