Ride a Jeepney Mar 2 Wed
通称ジプニー(Jeepneyと書きますが現地人はジープと呼びます)に乗った際
英語で通じることもありますが、たまーーーに現地語(ビサヤ語)しか話せない運転手もおります。
そんな時、「ここで降りたいのに〜」とか「○○まで行きたいんですっ」とか
支払いの時「２人分です」とか現地語で言えたらいいなぁと思い、現地の方に教えてもらいました。
そこで、少しですが教わった基本用語を記しておきたいと思います。
・Jeepから降りたい時
「降ります」→ Para lang ! (パラ ラン)
「停まって」→ hunong (ホノン)
・行き先を伝えたい時
「○○に行きたい」→ Gusto ko muadto sa ○○. (ゴスト コ ムァッド サ ○○)
・自分の乗降車地を伝えたい時
「○○から△△まで乗ります」→ Usa rana gikan ○○ manaog sa △△ (ウサラナ ギカ ○○ マナオ サ △△)
・Jeepの路線を知りたい時
「どのルートを走りますか？」→ Asa ang rota aning jeep? (アサ アロ-タ アニン ジープ？)
・お礼を伝える時
「ありがとう」→ Salamat ! (サラマ)
・お返しを言いたい時
「どういたしまして」→ Way sapayan ! (ワイ サパヤン)
・お願いする時
「Please !」→ Palihug (パリ フォ)
・誰かに話しかけたい時
「すみません」→ Pwede mangutana? (プェデ マヌォタナ？)
＊数字 スペイン語/ビサヤ語(スペイン語でもいけるそうです)
１uno/usa ウノ/ウサ
２dos/duha ドス/ドゥハ
３tres/tulo トレ/トォロー
４cuatro/upat クアトロ/ウパァッ
５cinco/lima シンコ/リマ
６seis/unom セイス/ウノム
７siete/pito シエテ/ピト
８ocho/walo オチョ/ワロ
９nueve/siyam ヌエベ/スィヤム
１０diez /napu ディエス/ナプォ
セブで使われている ビサヤ語やセブアノ語と呼ばれる現地語は、セブがもともとスペイン領だったこともあり、スペイン語混じりのもの(特に”r”の発音)が多いです。
基本的にスペイン語は、ほぼ書いてある通りにカタカナ読みするので日本人にとっては発音しやすいかもしれません。
因みに最近では、英語混じりのセブリッシュ(セブアノ×イングリッシュ)だとかタグリッシュ(主にマニラなどで使われる現地語タガログ×イングリッシュ)などの新語も使われています。
奥が深い、言語の世界。。。
TAIYAKI Feb 22 Mon
ルームメイトがついに今日から「Taiyaki-Ya」を始めました！！
試行錯誤して作り上げたものが、市場に出る
記念すべき、第1日め。
お部屋中にあまりにも良い匂いが漂って来たので
焼き途中をお邪魔して、第2番目のお客にしていただきました。
P35/1pc、中はカスタードクリーム。
焼きたて。。。めっちゃ美味しやん！！∧( 'Θ' )∧
ついつい このストック分にも手出ししてしまい、その場でまたパクパク。。。
個人的にはカスタードは、冷たい方が美味しいのではないかと思います。
そして、冷蔵or冷凍用にもう一個購入(笑)
明日のおやつ時間が楽しみ。
来月は本気でルーズウェイト計画！(こっそり宣言してみる)
そして、焼き上げ個数達成すると、夜な夜な売りに出掛けて行かれました。
メンズと雖も 夜はどうぞ、お気をつけて！！
たいやきやを通して、たくさんの人に幸せが訪れるといいなぁ〜♪( ´θ｀)ノ
時間はいろいろ変更の可能性があるそうなので(現在は早朝)、
セブ在住の方は、ITパーク周辺で出会えたらラッキーですね！
Last scene Jan 29 2016
Walter: (standing beside his house) Let's see. I'll put the garden in over here. And the garage in over there. And... (Higgle and Niggle enter running and out of breath)
Higgle: Oh, Walter, you have to save us!
Niggle: THE WOLF IS AFTER US...
Higgle: AND HE HUFFS AND PUFFS AND HOUSES JUST FLY ALL OVER THE PLACE!
Niggle: Walter, he's big and ugly...and he's very hungry.
Walter: Hello Higgle, hello Niggle. Fine weather we're having. You two seem a bit upset. Why don't you come inside and we'll talk over. (Walter leads into the house; Higgle and Niggle follow)
Higgle: And he was saying naughty things about picked pig's feet.
Niggle: And roasted pork ears. Walter, he is a very bad wolf.
Hugo: (enters laughing) Three little pigs. Count them--one, two, three. One for my appetizer, one for my main course and one just for dessert. Yum, yum, yum. (toward house) Okay, you in there. That's right, I'm talking to you pigs! Come on out. There's no reason to fight me any more. I'm too strong and powerful... not to mention hungry. So come on out right now.
All Pigs: Not by the hair of our chinny chin chins.
Hugo: (huffs and puffs with all his might)
All pigs: (giggle loudly)
Hugo: (huffs and puffs with all his might again)
All pigs: (giggle louder than the first time)
Hugo: (huffs and puffs with all his might one more time)
All pigs: (giggle as loud as they can)
Hugo: (shaking with rage) Ohhh those pigs! (stops) But wait, I have an idea. (disappears off stage, sounds of grunting and groaning; he appears over top of the house from back) Hugo, you are so clever, so clever...(goes over to chimney, looks in, looks at his own body, they back in chimney) You know, they just don't build chimneys the way they used to. Oh well, here goes. (falling sound, then ganging and chattering; wolf disappears behind house; the following chase scene takes place back stage, it can be as long as loud as your imagination makes it)
Hugo: Come back here, you pig, you.
Higgle: Gotcha.
Hugo: Ouch, why you...
Walter: hey, who turned out the lights?
Higgle: Gotcha.
Niggle: Let go of me, you nit wit.
Higgle: Oh, sorry.
Hugo: Here piggy, piggy, piggy...piggy.
All pigs: Ah ha. We Gotcha! (they all come out of the house, pigs are all upright and proud; Hugo is slumped over...order is Walter, Hugo, Higgle Niggle)
Higgle: Well, what do we do with him now?
Niggle: Why don't we build a cage and keep him for a pet?
Walter: Hold it, hold it, hold it! The only things you two are going to build are houses. And this time your are going to build them right. Understand?
Higgle: Yes Walter.
Niggle: Yes Walter.
Walter: And as for the wolf, we are going to take him to the zoo where he can't do anyone else harm.
Hugo: (looks towards the audience) I wonder if they serve good lunches there!
Walter: Tut, tut, come along now. Let's go.
All Bow! Job Well Done!!!
と、オオカミが茹でられてお亡くなりになることもなく、面白いendingになっています。
動物園でオオカミが見れたらかなりレアですよね！
Scene Three Jan 28 2016
(Scene Three)
Narrator: Well, it looks to me like Hugo may have a little bit harder time catching the pigs than he first thought. Let's check in on Higgle and see how he is coming along with his house.
Higgle: (standing beside twig house) Figaro, figaro, figaro...home sweet home, home sweet home, home sweet home...
Niggle: (enters running) Higgle, oh Higgle! The wolf is after me! The wolf is after me! Where can we hide?
Higgle: Now don't you worry about a thing, little Niggle. I've built a fine, strong house. Just come on inside and relax. No one will get us here. (while delivering the last line the two pigs disappear into Higgle's house)
Hugo: (Pops up on stage, laughs) Clever, clever wolf. By letting the first one go, I've laid a trap to catch two in one blow. Piggies, piggies, don't be clowns. If you don't come out, I'll huff and puff and I'll blow your house down. (laughs)
H&N: Not by the hair on our chinny chin chins.
Hugo: Okay kids, you asked for it. (huffs with great drama; same action as before with house disappearing in quick, clean action) You're not going to get away from me this time! (Niggle starts to run, Hugo stops and turns around) Oh, a wise guy, hun? (takes off after Higgle; Niggle repeats the bump in the back trick)
Niggle: Na na na na na. (Hugo chases Niggle off stage; Higgle follows them both; all three come running off the stage)
Higgle: whew! That was too close for comfort. Come on, Niggle. Walter will know what to do. (both pigs run off stage in the opposite direction from Hugo's exit)
Hugo: (returns on stage from the same side he exited) Now where did those pigs go? (follows pigs off stage running)
(end scene three)
Scene Two Jan 27 2016
(Scene Two)
Narrator: Higgle and Niggle worked and worked on their houses. At least they worked as hard as Higgle and Niggle could.
Niggle: (from off stage, sounds of hammering and Niggle's shout as he hits and hurts his thumb. Niggle and the house rise on stage slowly) Ouch! Well now, that's what I call a house rising. (laughs) And that's what I call a pretty fine house. (Niggle begins inspecting house) Yep, best straw money can buy. You know, I think it's time to go inside to eat s well deserved snack. (Niggle walks around behind house so he is not visible to audience; then goes down stage.)
Hugo: (enters, sees the house, nods to audience, looks back at house) Hummmm. The question is, how does a clever wolf get the pig out of the house? Ha! I've got it. (clears throat) Ding gong, ding dong... ice cream, real fresh ice cream. Come get your ice cream while it's good and cold. Come and get it.
Niggle: (peers out from around the house) Ice cream? (sees Hugo) Why that's a wolf, and he doesn't have any ice cream at all. He's just trying to get me out of my house so he can eat me for super. Well, I'll show him that I'm not any dumb old pig. (yells to Hugo) Not by the hair on my chinny chin chin. Mr.Wolf, I'm going to say here in my little house until you go away!
Hugo: Safe little house? (laugh) Don't make me laugh. If you won't come out then I'll have to huff and puff and blow your house down. (takes a huge breath; Niggle should be right behind house on stage; Hugo blows and the house disappears in a very quick, straight downward motion; Niggle is left just standing there; he looks down, looks left then right; runs off stage) Hey, no one ever told me that pigs could run. (Hugo runs after Niggle) You big bundle of lard, you come back here right now!

The Three Little Pigs Jan 26 2016
語学学校で今回はpuppet showをすることになりました！
みなさんお馴染みの「三びきの子豚」のオリジナルver.
とても長〜〜〜く、全部で4部構成にて仕上がっております。
今日はとりあえず初回。
(Scene One)
Narrator: Once there were three very peculiar, little pigs. They were brothers. One brother was, well he was practical. On this particular day two of the pigs, Higgle and Niggle, were getting ready to build their new houses.
Higgle: (from off stage) Come on, Niggle, get away from that window. You've already eaten six bubble gum ice cream carrots, twenty chocolate covered corn cobs, and who knows how many potato peel malts! Now stop looking at that candy in the window and come along. We must get to the fields and build our new houses. Brother Walter has almost finished his brick house and we haven't even started yet.
Niggle: (Higgle and Niggle enter) Walter is a boar.
Higgle: It's true. Walter doesn't even know how to sing or dance the way his very talented brother does.(Higgle begins to sing and dance around the stage) It seems to me that all Walter ever thinks about is that dumb old brick house of his. (Niggle nods) After all, Mother split her meager fortune so that we could go out into this cruel, hard world and live better lives than her own poor, undernourished, underfed, half-starved, famished...
Niggle: (during last speech Niggle has begun to sob louder and louder until he finally interrupts Higgle) Ah, don't worry Mom, I'll eat million peppermint parsnips just for you.
Higgle: There, there Niggle. I think the parsnips will have to wait. It's time to go build our houses. Now you go that way, (gestures toward one side of the stage) I'll go this way. (gestures toward the other side of the stage) And I'll come visit you when you've finished your house.
Niggle: (beings to walk off his side of the stage) You know, thinking of Mom always makes me hungry. I'll start building as soon as I eat a little snack.
Higgle: (watches to walk off stage) Good luck, Niggle. Now let's see, before a pig can find the right place to build a house, he must sing a song and dance a little dance. Build one, cha cha cha, build two, cha cha cha. (hums as he exits)
Hugo: (just as the pigs exit, Hugo pops up center stage and looks slowly from one side of the stage to the other.) There you go Hugo, you very clever, masterful, marvelous, handsome and oh so hungry wolf, you. (looks at audience) Did you see those fat juicy little pigs? Um, um, um, um um!
What tasty suppers they would make. (being to place) A plan, I must come up with a plan. (stops) I've got it! I'll use the old huff and puff trick. I bet with a little practice I'll be eating a fresh piggy for supper. (takes a loud breath and blows loudly, everything including stage shakes) Haven't lost the old touch. Well now, let's see, should I start with this pig? (starts off stage right) Or maybe that pig? (doubles back stage left) Hummmm, oh it both (chuckles) to myself. (walks off same side of stage as Higgle) Here piggy, piggy. Here you cute little piggy you.

SKY Wi-Fi Jan 19 2016
今日、お部屋にSKY Wi-Fiなるものが(試験的に)設置されました！！
SKY Wi-Fiで検索かけると圧倒的にJAL SKY Wi-Fiという結果がでました。
あとは少しだけANA GLOBAL Wi-Fiというのも見られました。
ここセブでは大手2(3)社、Smart(PLDTの携帯部門)/Globe(Tatto)がメジャーですが
そもそもSKY Wi-Fiとは飛行機内で使える回線のことみたいです。
今までのPLDTより速くなるそうですが、もちろんその分値段が上がったり
使用人数の制限が設けられていたり、契約期間に縛りがあったりします。
Smart社のポケットWi-Fiも利用させてらっていたのですが、何せ電池の消耗が早い！(泣)
ただ、 外出時にも大概の場所でネットが使えるというメリットはとても大きいです。
セブでの通信環境がよりよくなることは、更なる色々な発展が期待されると思います。
日本に比べるとまだまだですが、セブ(フィリピン)は今後どうなっていくのでしょうか。
