Good morning,
Doc
.
Doc
:
"Doc"は"Professor"の意味。「教授」
Oh, Roycie, you’re here.
Yes, Doc, I read your email yesterday so I came immediately.
Well, I was looking into your class standing
and it seems that you have missed a lot of requirements and quizzes because of your absences.
What happened?
Doc, I’ve been having a lot of problems lately.
My fa…, after my father left to work abroad, I had to help my
Nanay
in our business.
Nanay
:
"Nanay"はタガログ語で"My mother"の意味。生みの母親だけでなく、育ての母親や義理の母親など、別の母親的存在を指すこともある。
Plus, my
ading
got sick so I had to be absent in class. I apologize, Doc.
ading
:
"ading"はイロカノ語(フィリピンのルソン島北西海岸に住む人々が主に話す言語)で"younger sibling"の意味。「弟」「妹」
I’m sorry to hear that.
But you know, you have to comply with the course requirements in order to pass.
I know, Doc.
Uhhhmm, so what should I do, Doc?
You are obliged to attend all the remaining meetings for this semester
and you have to submit the same requirements done by your classmates.
The three articles, Doc?
Yes, you are required to synthesize them.
Identify the papers’ strengths and weaknesses and be able to
concretize
your evaluation.
concretize
:
"concretize"は"justify"の意味。フィリピン英語では接尾辞を替えて品詞を替える(この場合は"concrete"が"concretize")ことがあるが、この語がその一例。「正当化する」「詳細に説明する」
Thank you for the chance, Doc.
When is the deadline?
OK, you have until Friday to accomplish that.
Shall I submit online or a hard copy?
Just like your classmates, submit a hardcopy
so that I can write my feedback right away.
Thank you again, Doc.
