こんにちは。

日本語できわめて便利な表現は何かに「放題」を付け加えて上限なしにするものです。

英語では私たちは “all you can …” “you can … as much/many … as you want” などと言います。

ですので例えば居酒屋が4500円で食べ放題をやっているとすると、英語で私たちは

It’s all you can eat for 4,500yen.
(4500円で全部食べられます)

あるいは

you can eat as much as you want for 4,500yen.
(4500円で欲しいだけたくさん食べられます)

と言うでしょう。

飲み放題も同じように “all you can drink (飲み放題)”あるいは “you can drink as much as you want (欲しいだけたくさん飲めます)”と言います。

ケンジントンにもオンライングループレッスンの「学び放題」があることを忘れてはいけませんね。

これを英語に訳すと

You can take as many classes as you want for 8,800yen/month
(8800円で欲しいだけたくさんのレッスンが受けられます)

になるでしょう。すごくお得ですね！

[English version]

Hello guys, 

A super useful expression in Japanese is adding 放題 to something and making it unlimited. In English we say “all you can ….” or “you can ….. as much/many…. as you want”

So for an example if an Izakaya has a 食べ放題  for 4,500yen in English we would say “It’s all you can eat for 4,500yen” or “you can eat as much as you want for 4,500yen”. 飲み放題 is similar as we say “all you can drink” or “you can drink as much as you want”.

Don’t forget that we at Kensington have a 学び放題 for online group lessons. That would translate to “You can take as many classes as you want for 8,800yen/month”. That’s amazing value!!
