NOXILO Conversation
( 12 December 2010. rev. 10 April 2017 )
( ノ シ ロ 語 会 話 集 )
All skits are fiction for the practice of conversation and shouldn't be used as real maps, time schedules, or any sort
of real guidebooks of life. Each skit is independent unless it is specified.
Contents (Skits)
1) Self-introduction
2) Meet on the street, etc.
3) Telephone conversation I
4) Telephone conversation II
5) At a travel agency, airport, etc.
6) Guidance (direction)
7) Railway, Subway
8) At a classroom of a university
8-1. Economics class
8-2. Language class
9) Weather forecast and News
10) Interview about death penalty
******* IMPORTANT *******
Basic Words are expressed by color black (ex. SE), Int'l Standard Words by black Italic (ex. InTEL), English words
by orange yellow (ex. language), and Japanese, Swedish, and other natural languages by blue (ex. 言語).
Basic Words are very important words that form NOXILO grammar. Int'l Standard Words (ISWs) are non-grammatical
and most ISWs have a radical on the head of each word. ISWs can be freely replaced with corresponding English,
German, Hindii, Japanese, Korean, Swedish, etc.
NOXILO words (Basic + ISWs) have been written by capital letters except 'y' and 'n'. However, for the above 10
skits, I used small letters (with '_' at the beginning like _se for SE ) for the people who prefer small letters to
capital ones. In the future, a '_' may even be deleted if a majority of NOXILO users prefer small letters and they
think the risk of confusion formed by the deletion is very nominal.
***************************
For the following 25 skits from No. 11 to No. 35, NOXILO words (Basic or ISWs) are written by capital letters as
they have been traditionally so.
11) ?
12) ?
13) Shopping ?
14) At a post office ?
15) At a public bath ?
16) Discussion ?
17) Interview ?
18) At a classroom ?
19) At a movie theatre ?

■ Oui, madame. Let me see your map. OK, first you go diagonally, at the angle of about 30 degree to right,
through this field till the end. You'll see a big street that runs parallel to this street, and a two-way-fork there.
Take the left street, go straight, and you'll see another two-way-fork. Take right street, go straight for a minute,
turn right, turn right again, go straigh for a minute or less, and then you should see the house on your left.
はい、マダム。 ちょっと地図を見せてください。 オーケー、先ず右向き約３０度の角度で対角線上にこの野原の終わりまで
行きなさい。 するとこの通りに並行して走っている大きな通りと、二股の通りが見えます。 左側の道を選んで真っすぐに進
むと、又、二股の通りが見えます。 右側の道を真っすぐに 1分進み、右へ曲がり、再び右へ曲がって、1分かそれ以内
真っすぐに行くと、あなたの左側にその家が見えるはずですよ。

■ That's on the opposite side of the river Danube. You go straight and make a left turn, then go over the bridge.
Turn left immediately after passing the bridge, go 2 blocks, make a right turn at the two-way-fork,
and go straight on uphill. You'll come to a cross and you'll see the Museum on the north-west side, at a
kiddy-corner from you. The Museum is in front of the hill.
それはダニューブ川の反対側ですね。 真っすぐ行ってから左折して橋を渡ります。 橋を渡り終わったらすぐに左折して、
2ブロック行くとそこが2叉路なのでそこを右折し真っすぐに丘を登ります。 交差点に来ると博物館は貴方の北西側、
つまり斜向かいに見えるでしょう。 博物館は丘の手前になります。

M2: _Sle _se fine. _Baiza, _se _iyus > go _utl volunteer center _ubl Red Cross. ? _me _gima tell _se _hy _boie go.
■ Sure. Turn at the corner to left and cross the street and make a right turn at the next cross. You'll come to a pond.
Turn right and go along the pond for almost a half circle. You'll come to the cross, turn right there, and then you come
to a 4-way-fork.
There, you'll have 2 choices. The 1st one is to take the far-left path. Go straight and pass through the railway crossing,
and go straight under the highway, then go straight uphill and cross the street, and finally you'll find the volunteer center
on your right, which is the 2nd house from the last cross. If the railway crossing is open, this route is the shortest and
fastest, and it will be a 7 minute-walk total. Otherwise it will take 10 minutes because the railway has priority to the pass.
Another choice is to take the 2nd route on the far-right. Go straight awhile, go under the railway, again go under the
highway and go up the S shaped curve a while, and you'll come to the cross. Turn right and then you'll see the
volunteer center on your right, which is the 2nd house from the last cross. This route will take about 8 minutes.
The 2nd choice is a little bit of detour but it doesn't have the railway crossing, so you don't have to worry about an
unexpected delay. Which is better, well, it's up to you.
勿論。 あの角を左へ曲がり、道を一つ通り越して、次の交差点を右へ行きなさい。 すると池に出ます。 右折して池に沿って
半円になるくらいまで進むと交差点に来ます。 そこで右折すると四つ又交差点に来ます。
そこで貴方には二つの選択肢があります。 第一は、最も左の道を行くこと。 真っすぐに行き、踏切を通って、ハイウェイの下を
通り、上り坂を真っすぐ行って交差点を超えると、右側にボランティア・センターが見えます。 その交差点から二つ目の家ですよ。
もし踏切が開いていればこのルートが最短かつ最速で、全部で歩いて７分程ですね。 閉じていれば10分くらいかかるでしょう。
鉄道は優先的に通りますからね。
もう一つの選択肢は右から二番目の道を行くことです。 しばらく真っすぐに行き、鉄道の下を通り、ハイウェイの下を通り、S字
カーブをずうっと上ると、交差点に出ます。 右折すれば右側にボランティア・センターが見えるでしょう。 交差点から二つ目の
家ですよ。 このルートだと８分くらいかかるでしょう。 この選択肢はいくらか遠回りなんだけど、踏切がないので予想外の遅れ
の心配はないんです。 どちらが良いか、それはあなた次第ですねー。

● Thank s a lot for the detailed guidance. I think I'd better choose the 1st way because the chance that the railway
crossing is closed would be relatively small, and I'm indifferent for any unexpected short delays that you mentioned.

★ You can buy it from the vending machine around the corner. First, push the button for English. Enter the necessary
information such as your name, age, address, and the commuting route that you want to cover, then put the amount
of money that the machine requests. The machine will give you a pass with the beginning date and the expiration,
the route, and the balance if you put extra money. You can use the balance as a 'charge' for extensive rides beyond
the specified route, or for shopping at stores with a magnetic checker near railway stations . Some other railway
companies accept the balance for actual fare. So, the charge is convenient. Passes are valid for 1, 3, or 6 months.
You can choose the length of time from the three options. The longer the validity, the more of a discount.
That's all, madam.
あの角を回ったところにある自販機から買えます。 最初に English のボタンを押しなさい。 それから名前、住所、年齢、カバー
したい乗車ルート等の必要な情報を入れます。 それから機械が求める金額を入れます。 すると自販機は使用開始日、失効日、
乗車ルートが示された定期券と、余分にお金を入れた場合はおつりも出してきます。 余分なお金は、チャージとして、有効な
乗車ルートからの延長乗車に使ったり、駅の近くの磁気チェッカーを備えたお店で買い物にあてることも出来るんですよ。
他の幾つかの鉄道会社でもチャージを運賃に使えます。 だからチャージは便利なんです。 定期券の有効期間は、1、3、6ヶ月
の三種類で、その中から一つを選べます。 期間が長くなると、それに応じて割引も増えるんです。

▲ That's partially true. Only 1 out of 3 trains goes to Odaiba station through Shinjuku. Unfortunately, this particular
one doesn't. You have to get off and wait for the train after the next one to go there, or you can take other lines
for Odaiba but you would need to transfer to the Yurikamome Line at Shimbashi Station. I think that your guide
book misled you. The book should have touched on the frequency of the trains for Odaiba.
それは部分的には正しい。 3本の中、1本だけが新宿経由でお台場へ行くんです。 残念ながらこの電車は行きませんね。
そこへ行くには、あなたはここで下りて次の次の電車を待つか、別の路線を使わなければなりませんね。 が、その場合は
新橋駅でゆりかもめ線に乗り換える必要があります。 貴方の旅行ガイドは貴方をミスリードしてますねー。 お台場への
電車の頻度について触れていなければいけませんよね。

■ Yes, but the speaker is saying that the next train is for the rapid service, so it doesn't stop here.
You have to wait for the train after this one. You should wait behind the yellow line because the coming train
doesn't slow down much. The strong wind might be too forceful for you.
そうですが、構内放送は次の電車は急行だと言っています。 だからここでは止まりません。
あなたはこの後の電車を待たなければなりません。 貴方はこの黄色い線の後ろで待つ方が良いですよ、何故なら
やって来る電車はスピードをそれほど落とさないです。 強い風にあおられてしまうかも知れませんよ。

<Note> uurp (uurpl) = while
▲ For a smooth getting off and on, and to keep the rule of first come first serve.
Passengers who get off have priority, so they get off the train first, then people who waited
on the platform start riding. Among the waiting people, a person who came to this place earlier
has priority over the person who came later. The 2nd person has priority over the 3rd person
and so on. Sometimes, passangers standing near the door voluntarily get off prior to the passangers
who need to get off the train so that those who need to get off can get off quickly. I think those who
make a path for a smooth exchange for all people should have the first priority to get back on the train.
乗り降りがスムーズに行くように、そして到着順位優先の規則を守るためです。
降りる客が優先されるので、その人達が先ず降りてから、ホームで待っていた人達が電車に乗ります。
待っている人達の間では、早く列に並んだ人が後から来た人に優先します。 二番目の人は三番目の人より
優先される、という具合にね。 時には、車内のドア近くに居る人たちは、電車から降りなければならない人達が
素早く降りられるように、進んで電車から降ります。 私は、スムーズな乗り降りのために道をあけた人達は電車
に戻る最優先権を持つべきだと思いますねー。

In many busy stations in big cities like Tokyo or Osaka, getting off and on must be completed in 30 seconds or
1 minute at most. So the changing of the people is a real job, especially for children, women, and senior citizens.
いいえ、そうは思いません。 しかし、もし我々がその規則を守らなければ、皆がトラブルを持つことになるでしょう。
東京や大阪のような大都市の混雑する駅では、電車の乗り降りは 30秒か精々1分で終わらせなければならない
んです。 人々の交代 (乗り降り) は本当に一仕事なんですよ、とりわけ子供や女性や老人たちにはねー。

● The textbook that you will be using throught this course is Hirshleifer. There will be 2
midterm exams and 1 final. I'm going to take the best score of the 2 midterms, and the final
to determine your final grade. Class participation may affect your final grade, especially when
your test scores are very poor. The your exam will be available to pick up at the department
office, after 1 or 2 weeks of each exam, and the grades will be posted on my room door in
Woody Complex. Attendance won't affect your grade, but skipping classes frequently will result
in low scores. Study hard and enjoy the class.

● Since it is the 1st day, most of you probably do not have the text. Let me quickly review
some key points of micro economics. The 1st one is 'more is better'. That means there is
no saturation. The 2nd one is 'perfect competition' with full information. Also, you must
understand the demand and supply curves before we go into indifference curve.

● Yes.
M1: _Yup.

▲ The syllabus that you gave us show a lot of reference books and articles. Do we have
to read them all ? I think it's impossible for me to read that many materials. Will you show
1 or 2 most important ones ?

● OK, you don't have to read them all. But, the study guide by Smith in the first line of
the reference will be helpful for you. Most others are application papers. I will be going
over other points in my lecture, OK. Don't worry now.

■ Are you going to use the normal curve or flat curve for grading ?
M1: ? _Me grading _ed normal curve _oa flat curve-o use.
M2: ? _Me use normal curve _oa flat curve-o _edl grading.
<Note> OA = or. ED(EDL) = for.
● This class has about 30 students, so it would sound natural to use normal distribution,
but I don't stick to it. If I find many exams worthy of 'A' grade, I'm going to give more As,
using flat distribution. At this point I am undecided, so either will be determined at a later time.
M1: _To class-w _yak 30 student-o _tuv, _oeni normal distribution-o use-m-w natural (_ri),

<Note> SEAn = I see. ASAnTE = KAMSA = Thank you.
● As I said before, I shouldn't advance any further because most of you are not ready
for the class today. So, today's lecture is over. I advise you to go over page 6 to 12.
Any questions ? Any question ? No ? Then, you may leave. Have a nice weekend.
M1: _Se _iue say-t _iil, _se _enii further _nai _gimi advance _ooz _mei _mst-w _aaji class _eo

M2: _Me _mo, professor.
<Note> MO = too (MO is placed after ME , but SLE is placed before ME).
8-2. Language class
'Post' is Latin and means later or rear. 'Pre' means before or front. So, I have made the word PostCedent.
I need this particular word. I must leave the words there as they are.
The usage of pre- and post- is the same as for the Modification Agent, which are Prepositions for M2 and Postpositions
for M1. The prepositions for M2 are the same as prepositions in English. Let me give you an example:
● Professor ! I think I don't understand well about preposition/postposition, and precedent/postcedent. Why did you
make such special word like post position or postcedent ?
★ Because the NOXILO is combined (reversible) language which can be used by both SVO speakers and SOV speakers.
You say 'to New York' in English which is SVO language, but we say 'New York to' in Japanese which is SOV language.
The first 'to' is the preposition because 'to' comes before New York. But the second 'to' comes after New York,
so I call this a postposition. In NOXILO grammar, Modification Agents consist of prepositions (for SVO) and postpositions
(for SOV). By the same token, Conjunctions (Clause Leaders in NOXILO) consist of PreConjunctions and PostConjunctions.
Similarly, Modified words (modificand) consist of PreCedent (AnteCedent in English) and PostCedent. 'Ante' is Latin
and French and means before or rear as 'pre'.
● I see. Now I understand why you made two types, pre-words and post-words. Thank you.
