In BASIC English

Back to my place

Yasushi — 2010-07-19T21:58:17+09:00

Now I am back to my house from living outdoor.

We had one night under the sky in very hard rain That was a regular place for outdoor-day-lovers.

Outdoor days

Yasushi — 2010-07-17T22:15:59+09:00

From the start of tomorrow, our family will have time in Akaigawa. It is fixed for us to have outdoor sleep there.

It is natural for me these days to be reading Ryota-san's words through Twitter. My old grip of Basic English was that it's hard to give thoughts and ideas inside of the Twitter's limit of small word's number. But his quite edged arts of Basic words on it make my mind get changed completely.

If readers of my Blog are user of Twitter, to do "follow" after him will become very good fruits for their brain.

Walm and wet!

Yasushi — 2010-07-12T10:15:37+09:00

It is coming a day with rain after another in my living place. Walm and steamed air round us has given a very unhappy feeling.

Stranger in House

Yasushi — 2008-05-13T11:10:57+09:00

My house was broken into by someone when we were out on 30 April. He or they took money for 2,500Yen and a notebook like computer. Every goods which were in drawers were put on a floor with wide distribution.
Our damage was not so serious. But I have to say about the broken window glass. They made a small hole at a position of a lock. Two days later a glass maker came to us and made a measure the broken glass. He made out an account. The paper says we are in need of 120,000Yen to get taken the place broken glass in to new one. As an outcome, broken glass was a highest-priced damage. I had better to keep the lock off?

By the way I am getting fire-insurance for my house. In my knowledge a fire-insurance makes payment only for damage because of fire. But my house builder made me take note that even if it's by a property-taker, broken glass will be covered by fire-insurance. He said it will be good idea that I make a telephone to insurance company as an attempt. And the company responsible man said they will make payment for the changing the glass to new one. Now I am a little happy. The builder said a number of fire-insurance users doesn't have knowledge about this, and makes payment by themselves without questioning a company.

Stomach-camera

Yasushi — 2008-02-27T15:28:33+09:00

I have had sharp pain in my stomach for these two or three months. I went to hospital and had a view-test of stomach by a stomach-camera on last Monday. The answer was good. There was no trouble in my stomach. But I didn't get any account of the pain.

Do you have memory of old songs?

Yasushi — 2008-02-26T04:22:30+09:00

Old songs have strong attraction to me. I am an iPod lover. In my iPod, there are a number of songs which made me be pleased in my younger days.
I put examples of part of that.
"Tonde Istanbul" by Mayo Shouno,
"Mayoi-michi" by Machiko Watanabe,
"Momen No Handkerchief" by Hiromi Ohta. etc...
If you have a warm feeling with seeing these names, you had same years of mine.

Barbecue

Yasushi — 2007-08-19T10:44:17+09:00

Having burned meat and food plants in outdoor is generally named *Barbecue*.

Barbecue is great pleasure in hot summer. Wood-coal is used as burning material.

Specially in Hokkaido, sheep meat is had a taste for cooking. We say it as Genghis Khan. Why old great Mongolia King' name is the one of the Barbecue? I have no idea.

This summer is so warm that we have no memory which is parallel it. We family had a Genghis Khan three times.

Side effect 2

Yasushi — 2007-03-30T14:40:20+09:00

At root, I didn't have anything causing depression(* see last record). This was another side effect as well. I got Hepatitis B by medical needle of regular care for general diseases when I was very small. Then medical men were using same needle for a number of persons. HBV (Hepatitis B virus, virus is quite small substance causing a number of diseases) came into my body through the needle. HBV was quiet and I had been healthy till I was over 30 years old. When I came to first half of 30's, HBV made turn in motion and I had a great damage in *liver*. There was no good attacking way against HBV. I had no selection other than making HBV feeble unstraightly. I made some attempts to make an attack to HBV. One of the attempts there was a caring way by Interferon. Interferon was medical substance which has great number of side effects. At the end of the list of the side effects, small letters were noted: Causing depression, rating in 0.01%. Medical men said I am not necessary to weight on depression because it was caused in very very special chance. But I seemed to be very very special man, so I have had depression. That was worst experience in my living. A number of times, I came to have a desire to put myself into death.

Side effects

Yasushi — 2007-03-30T13:17:10+09:00

I have depression. Depression is a disease which takes power of heart and mind away. As well it get one's ideas twisted to dark view. I have medical substances against the depression every day. Some of them have bad side effects. By one of the effects, these days my eyes view become unnormal: one thing seems to be three or four over-coveredly.
Because of this I have had take three days off. Straight way for getting out of this condition is to make stop taking the medical substances as anyone see. But it's impossible for me. I am strongly in need of them for care of my depression.
I don't see the reason why the side effect has gotten increased these days. I am hoping getting clear view as quickly as possible.

Hot spring!

Yasushi — 2007-03-26T22:13:45+09:00

Last Friday we went to Kitayuzawa with two family of our friends. There was a good hot spring. I took it. It was much hot for me but not bad. A meal was very good. It was a way that every roomers take desired ones; generally named "Viking".
I took three dishes of Kani. Yes, I am a heavy Kani lover.

Three Kings

Yasushi — 2007-03-18T17:39:23+09:00

I am a Blues lover. There are great number of players in Blues division. I will ,here, have a talk about "Three Kings" who are representative player of them.
We are able to see three names in Blues history: Albert King, B.B. King and Freddie King. They are well noted all over the earth.
Their plays are so blue and heartbursting. Specially B.B.King has strong attraction for me. I got his record when I was 15 years old.

Taking care

Yasushi — 2007-03-11T14:04:11+09:00

Nao is my married woman. Nao took part in the night meeting for mothers of school for little boys and girls. When she came back to our house, she was quite worse for drinking. I had to take care of her. Our room for sleeping is second floor. Sometimes I get my boy and girls lifted up and take them to the room. But Nao's weight was so great that I was unable to get lifted. All I was able to do was to get *futon* stretched on a living room and made a heater warmer higher a bit and give her sleeping on the *futon*.

Blues Harp

Yasushi — 2007-03-10T08:16:26+09:00

There is a music instrument played by breath with ten holes. It's named 'Blues Harp'. Blues Harp is my loving instrument. Last night, I took my one and made an attempt to give a play some songs after long time from last playing. I saw that I became very poor player. Now I am training in playing it.

FIRST TOUCH

Yasushi — 2006-10-31T14:50:17+09:00

- FIRST TOUCH -

This is a certain story in some time of far future.

A science man got a grip of a radio wave from a very far star. Such event was no surprising because great number of radio waves are coming from space every day. But the wave was special. There was some order in the wave. This says the wave is man-made one.

The language sense was unable to see. But this was a first touch to animals which has power of thought out of the earth in men's history.

Science men made a decision to make a space ship and send it to the star with a space flight expert in order to make friends with the space animal.

For any events as possible as seeing probable, a great numbers of instruments of apparatus got ready for the flight man.

The all things were put into the ship. And the ship was ready to make a start to a long journey.

Right at the time, some school teacher had come running to a control room for
the ship. He said loudly
"There is still needed thing which is very important! Don't go without it!"
A great numbers of science men said to him
"There's no more thing to be needed. We had a quite number of discussions with serious
attention. All opinions got on the table of discussion and we completely got together the instruments and apparatus in order to get in touch with the space animal which has a high level brain. It's kind of you to be interested in possible troubles. But it's in no
need."

The teacher said "But your design map is uncompleted. It doesn't have most important thing."
And he put his hand forward. On the hand, there was a book.

A name of the book was put on the front cover: "English through pictures"

About my work for Ph.D

Yasushi — 2006-02-03T22:22:30+09:00

You will see bits if a some solid body is broken. The bit is named "particle" in industry, not dependent on its size or form. Yes, a rock greater than your head is a particle and, as well, a bit of bread powder is a particle and a brick of a house is a particle.

Sometimes particles are material of goods. For example your cup is made of very small particles of some special rock. So an operation of particles is important in industry. How to get particles transported from one vessel to another vessel? How to get two sorts of particle mixed completely? There are a number of questions in industry plants.

By the way You might have a Miso-soup in a morning meal. Please see the very warm soup with much care. There have to be a running move of the liquid in the soup. Or please have an attempt to put rice and small seeds into a glass. And put a stick into a glass and get them mixed slowly by the stick. You will see completely separated rice and seeds.

All of them take place by attraction force of the earth. The force is named "G". Yes, Newton who is the a very high named science man made a discovery the force.
The force sometimes makes science men or plant men be troubled. If you have a desire to get completely levelled goods, the force becomes a bad wall you have to go through.

Now a great space station is on its way of being made by U.S.A , EU, Russia and Japan. After it is completed, a great number of testing in very wide science divisions are designed. Experts have a view space plants will be made in near future because, in space, we are able to make very high-priced material, special medical powder, which is impossible to get on the earth, under Zero-G.

My interests go to the operations of particles in such the plants. I took up the transporting of particles among a number of particle operations. In this work, my particle size is about 360 micro meter.
I made a decision to put the end which I have steps forward to on development of new way of transporting particles under Zero-G. As driving force for the transporting, I made use of shaking the way of particles going forward. But nobody have had tests using particles under Zero-G on the earth till now. So I had to make a start to get knowledge about behaviors of particles under Zero-G. The picture you see right of this writings is one of my apparatus. I made 5 or 6 apparatus through the Ph.D work.

We are able to get Zero-G condition without going to space. It is a free fall.
There are two way of getting Zero-G. One is an special operation to let down a build iron body which have testing apparatus in it. The picture you see left is the great iron body.
Another is the way of using an air-plane which is free falling with making a stop of its engine. The picture you see lower is me getting the apparatus ready. This is a little danger test because a stopping engine on way of flights is out of design of the plane. So the flights of our plane were done over the sea far from Nagoya or Ishikawa to give no trouble to the towns if we go down without any control for the plane.
Through these tests I had a grip of the behaviors of shaked particles under Zero-G.
And I made a design of a new machine driving particles to desired way by shaking force.

I made truly the machine and had tests by the free falling air-plane. The outcome said my idea was right.
Zero-G test we have done has a number of limits on the apparatus' size or time of Zero-G and so on.
So I made tests on computer programs for supporting the outcomes of true tests.
The programs gave me more knowledge.

And I have made a development of the new machine working in space.

I made it.

Yasushi — 2006-02-02T01:47:27+09:00

I have gone into questions about things under condition of no-attraction by the earth for over six years.
I made five papers of the works come out in public. From two years back, I have put down a special paper based on the papers to become a highest division of science named Ph.D. I gave a talk of my work to a committee of expert teachers' organization of university on last Monday. And they had a discussion if I am able for the division or not. They came to decision that gave me an approval of having the Ph.D.
I gave all of my power into the work these years and it came to the end as a best fruit. I am very happy now.

Face

Yasushi — 2006-01-21T06:58:39+09:00

We are facing a great number of things, thoughts or events everyday. When I become awake and get up in the morning, I will be facing my daughters and a son. I will get my arms round their body with love. It is winter. While I make my automobile run, I have to be facing slipping icing road. I am facing a number of sort of questions at work. I make them clear one by one. Suddenly my head officer has a desire to see me.
I go to his room. and I have a short time facing his room's door. What does he see me for?
He said a leaves of papers which I gave him last week is no good and make it again.
Backing to my seat, I am facing the paper. It seems to be complete. Where is bad point?
It becomes near a night time. Today I don't have a power of mind to make the paper again any more.
I make a stop to be facing the paper. And I go back to my house. Facing a door, I make a bell go off.
Sound of unlock the door comes to my ear and it is opened.
I am facing my little girls and son.The view is very peace and I am happy.

Animation

Yasushi — 2006-01-19T02:00:44+09:00

"Animation" is not Basic word. If you are in need of a sense of the word, go and have a reading Ryotasan's Daybook
From years of 1990 to 2000, Japanese *animation* was in top position between most of countries. Specially, in America, deep lovers of Japanese animation were running round to a number of stores to get VCDs or sheets of paintings of animation.
In earlier time, such materials was very rare and unable to get only in the stores which were against law.
But as time goes by, Japanese animation lovers have got an increase in number of persons.
Now a number of young makers of motion pictures are good effected by Japanese animation.
Do you have a memory of motion picture "MATRIX"and following ones which are made as "MATRIX"s brothers?
The chief makers of "MATRIX"s, who were Wachowski brothers, said they were effected by Japanese animation as well.

Answer to the blood test

Yasushi — 2005-06-11T10:08:37+09:00

I have a disease of a liver named "Chronic hepatitis B" which doesn't get well till my death.
Yesterday was a day of a monthly regular blood test.
In these months, conditions of my disease has been in about same level : not so bad.
The answer of the yesterday's test was not bad as well as before. The amount of viruses in blood was very little. GOT/GPT (values which give how bad liver is) was over the right ones but was not so serious.

The answer put my mind rest.

Pleasure of Jazz

Yasushi — 2005-05-10T01:42:17+09:00

My pleasure is to have a drink of whisky hearing jazz before I have a sleep at night. I have a number of loving players. Specially Miles Davis is God of jazz. Why jazz has much attraction to everyone? Most of jazz play become free from a fixed note of based songs. Note now you get through from ears is only one which will never be played.
So, in jazz, it is thought the play before persons is better than play in a recording room.

British or American?

Yasushi — 2005-04-19T19:16:22+09:00

C.K.Ogden, who was the producer of Basic English, was from Great Britain. That would be one of why some of words in Basic English was lettered in British way.
Today the words are right to be taken place by American way.The reason is not because American but because the letterings have harmony with sounds. The words Ryota-san put like "behaviour," "colour," "grey," "harbour," "humour" and "plough" are, in their lettering, not are not simple and are against sounds a bit.

Stagecoach

Yasushi — 2005-04-17T19:58:37+09:00

Stagecoach is a noted motion picture. It was opened as "EKIBASHA" in Japan.
John Wayne, who was representative actor then, was playing a chief person.
The cut that their cart was running away from Indians, firing guns to the Indians, makes our heart shaked and has great attraction. In my thought, this motion picture is not old.

Discussion goes on

Yasushi — 2005-04-13T22:26:12+09:00

C.K.Ogden, who was one of producers of Basic English, put some lists of international words. I have an opinion that it is better to have a discussion about a special list "additional words being tasted as international" because it has been let be for over 70 years.
On Maling List of Basic English the dicsussion is going on.

Audrey Hepburn

Yasushi — 2005-04-08T06:20:41+09:00

Audrey Hepburn is one of my loving actors of motion picture. A great number of persons say her best motion picture is "Roman Holiday". I am not against it. Even though that was her first work, She did a act of Princess completely.
But for me, "Charade" is the best. This work has amount of pleasure of a motion picture: love and danger and trick.

Music in motion pictures

Yasushi — 2005-04-05T20:05:05+09:00

I am a great lover of motion pictures. There are over 250 DVDs in my shelves.
Vangelis is one of noted music makers in a field of a motion picture. My best loving his sound is one in the motion picture "Chariots of fire (HONOU NO RUNNER)".

humor

Yasushi — 2005-04-03T21:04:10+09:00

I put my opinion about the Basic word 'humor'. *1, *2
Ryota-san kindly gave his opinion on this question from a wider view.
His opinion is clear for me. Even we say "good humor" or "bad humor", though we are not conscious, the wordings are based on it's root sense "condition of mind". It would be wiser for us to have a grip a of root sense of the word anytime.

My writing "What humor do you have today?" seems to be wrong. How about "How is your humor today?" ?

Learning in bath room

Yasushi — 2005-04-02T09:01:18+09:00

I got an interesting book. This book is not about Basic English but about full English.
But we are able to be reading in a bath room! The book is made of special paper which is against water.
I have been reading it a number of times.

The girls father

Yasushi — 2005-04-02T02:48:17+09:00

I have Hepatitis B. The father of the little girl, brother in law, has Hepatitis C. He was in need of getting medical care by needling of Interferon once a week.
By the care, he had serious bad side-effects every time, like high heat of body and pains of joining parts of arms and legs. So he had to take a day-off every week. One day his chief said to him "We have to say that our desire is you put an end to the work. You aren't in need of coming from today.

So cold...cold company.

Little girl

Yasushi — 2005-04-01T23:54:24+09:00

Now a daughter of a sister of my married woman came to and be in my house. She is twelve years old. She will be here for 5 or 6 days. I am pleased to be with her.
She makes a start her Junior Hight School program this April. I am going to take her to downtown and get a number of Compact Discs which she has a desire to have with her.

Book on Basic English - Basic English International Second Language

Yasushi — 2005-03-23T05:49:03+09:00

I am surprised that we are able to be reading "Basic English International Second Language" online. I got the book through a sea last year. The price was very high. I had to give an order because it was the last one copy in the online store.
By the way, in this book, a word *televsion* is coming out. This word is not in the list of Basic 850 words and the list of International word.
Now I am interested in a new International Words. *Television* is one of my list of the test words. I have a thought that we may be right of giving a thought in simpler way than my earlier thought.
