英語で話そう会 ４月例会のご報告

This month's session for the "英語で話そう会" was held on April 8 with the discussion topic  "Japanese bird researcher 1st in the world to prove animals use words, grammar".

A documentary clip on the topic was shared at first by the presenter, Mr. Sudo, using a projector. It was intersting to see how birds actually exchange information with other birds using different sounds and how the professor went through different experiment to finally determined that birds do actually use words and grammar.  Most of us were convinced that birds do communicate after watching the documentary. 

A bird is one of very familiar animals to us aside from dogs and cats. However,  since we hear them chirping but rarely see them, we take their existence for granted. It was good to step back and realize how their lives are closely related to ours.

"英語で話そう会" is holding a session on second Saturday of every month from 10 am at "横浜稲門会事務所".  If you are interested in English or your want to brush up your English speaking ability then this is the right place for you!  Please contact 小板橋(marchkoitabashi@yahoo.co.jp) or 小林(soccer_foot04@yahoo.co.jp).
