문장

• Verdu is joining Netflix from Facebook's Oculus, where he was in charge of game development.
• be in charge of A : A를 맡고 있다
• However, the company had a slow start to 2021, with its smallest first-quarter subscriber increase in four years.
• have a slow start to 2020 : 2020년에는 출발이 늦었다=속도가 더디다
• And it wouldn't come as much as a surprise either, as Netflix CEO Reed Hastings has previously said the company competes as much against video games for people's leisure time as it does against other streaming services.
• either : (부정문에서) …도[또한/역시] (그렇다)
• Greg Peters, Netflix's chief operating officer, also said in April that video games could be another way to engage subscribers already following the stories on the service's TV series and movies.
• engage subscriber : involve , 가입시키다

• The games will appear alongside current fare as a new programming genre -- similar to what Netflix did with documentaries or stand-up specials. -> 소식통에 따르면 넷플릭스가 일단 요금제에 포함된 서비스로 출시할 거 같다고 하네요.
• alongside : ~와 함께
• Netflix has been seeking ways to keep growing, especially in more saturated markets such as the U.S.
• saturated market : 포화된 시장
• Citi analyst Jason Bazinet said Netflix’s move creates “obvious risks” for larger game developers and publishers.
• Video games give Netflix another way to lure new customers and also offer something none of its direct competitors currently provides.->기존의 경쟁사들이 보여주지 않았던 전략이라 평가하네요
• Ultimately, the move may make it easier for Netflix to justify price increases in coming years.->넷플릭스가 게임서비스를 제공하면 궁극적으로 가격 상승을 정당화할 수 있다고 보네요
• Netflix has previously licensed the rights to games based on its shows -- including “Stranger Things” -- but this new initiative is much larger in scope. -> 넷플릭스가 이전에 게임관련 라이센스를 따내긴 했는데 이번 부사장 인사는 더 큰 그림을 시사한다고 보네요.
• in scope : 범위가 넓은

단어

• runway : 활주로

이번주 민병철 전화영어를 시작했다.

주 5회 20분

처음은 부담스러웠지만 갈수록 시간이 금새 지나가는 것 같다

전화영어를 하기 전 그날그날 예습을 하지만

복습은 하지 못했다.

복습 안하면 그냥 휘발될 거 같아 글도 쓸 겸 여기 정리하기로 했다.

지금 듣고 있는 코스는 OPIc: 취업 준비생 (초급)이다

I'm a job seeker right now

취업준비생이다.

Theme: Movie and Concert

I like an actress named Kim = I'm a big fan of an actress named Kim = There is an actress I really admire named Kim

김 배우를 좋아해

Have you heard of her? = Perhaps, You already know her = Do you know who I'm talking about? = Are you familiar of her?

들어봤어? 알지?

I will go and watch any movie she appears in = I'd go to see any movie she's in = I'll pay to see any movie she stars in.

그녀가 나오는 영화는 다 볼거야

I have cancelled a lunch appointment before = I have called off a lunch appointment before

점식 약속을 취소한 적 있어

There are five familiy members in my family

우리 가족은 5명이야

It was pretty scary for me

그거 꽤 무서웠어

Usually, I watch on YouTube and sometimes I watch on Netflix

대게 유튜브 보고 가끔 넷플릭스 봐

In fact, it's impossible for me to recall when I started watching TV

사실 언제 티비를 보기 시작했는 지 기억이 안나

Theme: Favorite Sports

In fact, I like playing all team sports = I actually enjoy all kinds of team sports = Actually, I'm into all team sports

팀 스포츠는 다 좋아해

I would say that basketball is probably my favorite = I'd probably say that basketball is my favorite

아마 농구가 내 최애 운동인거 같아

I just want to play these games for fun = The only reason I want to play games is for fun = I just want to enjoy this games for fun.

We got along through basketball in the park

우린 공원에서 농구하면서 알게 되었어

Usually, I'm just a home body

평소에는 그냥 집에 있어

I prefer snowboarding over skiing = I prefer snowboarding to skiing

스노우보드 타는 걸 더 좋아해

My wife is not a skiing or snowboarding person = my wife isn't fond of skiing or snowboarding

내 아내는 스키나 스노우보드 타는 걸 좋아하지 않아

The more I go there, the more she gets annoyed.

거기 갈수록 그녀는 빡칠거야

전화영어 후기를 조금 남기면

12주, 20분, 월화수목금, A존(6시~24시)를 수강중이고

과정을 원하는 거 아무거나 선택할 수 있어서 좋다

시간도 언제든지 변경가능해서 좋다

필리핀 사람들이지만 나보다 영어 훠어어얼씬 잘하니깐 좋다

사람마다 다르지만 일단 선생님들은 대체로 괜찮았다(2명 perfect, 2명 good, 1명 soso)

가격은 50만원정도? 내돈은 아니고 부모님 돈으로 결제했다

일단 말하니깐 실력이 향상되는 것 같다

10분은 너무 짧고 20분정도는 해야 말하는 거 같다

30분이면 실력이 훨씬 빨리 늘거 같은데..ㅠㅠ

방식은 예습할 거 주고 그거를 기반으로 수업이 진행된다. 미리 준비할 수 있는 부분도 있어서 예습 과정과 이를 수정하는 과정이 매우 도움이 된다. 예습 안하면 별 도움 안될 거 같다.
