Frog hunting


慎吾: やあ、剛! タイから戻ってきたんだね。どうだった?

Shingo: Hi Tsuyoshi! Back from Thailand? How was it?
剛:ああ、すごく楽しかったよ。妻のご両親にやっと会えたんだ。

Tsuyoshi: Oh, it was very nice. Finally met my wife's parents.
慎吾: それはよかったなぁ! ご両親、田舎に住んでるんだよね?

Shingo: Brilliant! They live in the countryside, right?
剛: うん、タイ北東部のイサーンというところだよ。

Tsuyoshi: Yes, in Isan in the northeast of Thailand.
慎吾: そんな所だと、あんまりすることがないんじゃない?

Shingo: Not much to do there I suppose?
剛: おもしろい所だったよ。カエルを捕まえに行ったんだ。

Tsuyoshi: It was interesting. We went frog hunting.
慎吾: 本当に? 何のために?

Shingo: Really? What for?
剛: タイの人たちはカエルを食べるんだ。中にはかなり大きいカエルもいるんだよ!

Tsuyoshi: They eat the frogs. Some of these frogs were quite big!
慎吾: ええっ、カエルがかわいそうだなぁ。剛も食べた?

Shingo: Oh, the poor frogs. Did you eat them too?
剛: ううん、どうしても食べる気になれなかったよ。

Tsuyoshi: No, I couldn't bring myself to eat them.
