日本語では修飾語が前にありますから、「１０倍の」に相当する形容詞を探そうとする癖が私たちにはあります。確かにtenfoldという言葉があるのは事実です。けれども、こうした場合の大半で適用できる発想法は、「５４兆円、でそれは・・・の１０倍なのだが」という風に考えることです。したがって、後ろから修飾するわけです。後追いで修飾するとも言えます。fund of 54 trillion yen almost ten times the amount reached in 2008 又は fund of as much as 54 trillion yen, which is almost ten times that in 2008 などと表現できると思うのです。

Yesterday I visited Chichu Art Museum in Naoshima in Takamatsu City,Kagawa Orefecture.This is my first visit there.Going on board a ferry boat,it took me about one hour to arrive at a port in Naoshima. From there I rode a town-operated midsized bus. In twenty minutes,I was at Chichu Art Museum's ticket center.
Naoshima is more famous overseas than at home for its excelent exhibition of fine arts combined by architecture designed by Ando Tadao. Most of the museum is under the grond like suggested by its name.The works of Claude Mounet,Walter De Maria and James Turrell are exhibited in the facility designed by Ando Tadao. Not only three artists' works but also the combination of architecture and the works itself is, in a real sense, art work.It is the philosophy of the museum.
Referring to the works of Mounet, they are exhibited in a white-wall room,and made visible entirely by natural lighting.The top of the room is open to the sky with transparent glass. The direct light from the sky is blocked by a kind of cover.I was able to see his four works from only a few of centimeters distance.I was able to see cloth of the canvases and oil paints very clearly. When I was in the room, the brightness in the room sudenly changed. What happend? I thought at the time. Afterward, I got that it took place because brightness in the sky changed.Mounet is a representative artist born in France in the mid-19th century ,belonging to the Impressionist. He was an artist who was very interested in light or brightness and darkness. Such kind of artist's works are being exhibited at the Naoshima's museum. That is a very splendi thing.That is why the world is paying a keen attention to this small island. Go to Naoshima.

In these circumstances, the group led by NTT and Microsoft is expected to pursue strong Yahoo.
参考：今日の記事を英文化するときにややこしいのは、いわゆる登場人物が多いことです。まずＮＴＴとマイクロソフト、それの７つの有力ネット関連企業。それとヤフーです。こういう場合は頭の中に絵を描いてみることが役立ちます。本当に絵を描いてみて考えるのも思考訓練になるかも知れない。絵をかくとそれら登場人物の関係が明確になります。明確になったその関係を表現するわけです。ここではさらにグループという主体が生まれてもいます。その結果書いた英文が少々おかしくても仕方ないわけで、だんだんよくなると思います。今日のも自信があるわけではありません。とにかく毎日書き続けることが大事です。

最近の２つの投稿は消します。感情が強く入り込んでいて少し恥ずかしいところがありますので。最近あった友人との話の中で、その人は聴くのは比較的たやすい。外国暮らしもあるからでしょうか。だけど、言いたいことがうまく言えないと言っていました。私は逆で、言いたいことは大体言えると思うが、聞くのに不安を持つということです。話すのは一人でできるよということをその友人に言いましたが、その内容を伝えてみたいと思ったからです。
